BINGO!

One of my sister Roses' favorite things at her program is Bingo. There are times when I forget it's Bingo day and go to pick her up before they've played or during play and she doesn't want to leave. Most of the prizes are donated and I am surprised sometimes at the things people give away. Beautiful heirlooms that I would never part with are donated for prizes.

Rose got this strand of beads as a prize and that day when I arrived to pick her up she handed them to me and said "fix it!" I'm not sure how long they were but they wouldn't fit over her head. We added some chain, jump rings and a bead and they're fixed:) Not the best photo but you get the idea.

Have a great day everybody thanks for stopping by.

Did You Make Any Presents?

My sister Rose and I made all of the presents we are giving this year and these a just a few of them. I picked the white bead for the last bracelet you see pictured here. It's vintage twisted glass and I wanted to make something with it. Rose picked all the other beads for the bracelets and strung them and I tightened and crimped them. They're all contemporary glass beads. A short time later when I came back to put them away I couldn't find them. She had placed them in her jewelry box.

I feel confident that none of the recipients will look at my blog so I'm not concerned about posting them. Do you have items that you've made? I'd love to see them if possible. We had a lot of fun making items this year and I'll post more photos later.

Have a great day everybody, thanks for stopping by.
