Christmas is Coming!
There … I broke the news. For those of you who are in denial, there are only 8 weeks left until Christmas. What does this mean? It means that for me & my store there are oodles of things to get done. Oodles of custom ornaments, custom Parker ornaments, & gifts for family & friends. I’ll be honest, this time of year is pretty rough on me. I seem to work longer than I sleep. But I’m thankful to each of you for your support & your adoptions. Now … let’s get on with the WIP (Work in Progress) part of this post.

Only One?!
For those of you who have been following my WIP Wednesday series, you will recognize this week’s offering is sparse. And yes, I admit that it is. I was gone from Wednesday – Saturday, only to return to get one thing accomplished. But it’s a good thing, isn’t it?! This polymer clay necklace will be taught in an upcoming video with B’Sue Boutiques as well as a PDF tutorial for Parker’s Clayful Tutorial Club which can be purchased by non-Club member here on the site. The tutorial that will be taught is “Zero Scrap Fall Flourish” teaching you how to make everything from the blend, beads, & leaves. Continue reading WIP Wednesday: Boho Fall Festival Necklace

Ginger Davis Allman
I love introducing new people to you here on my blog. Please know that I am very selective in who gets a showcase opportunity on my blog. For the most part, the artists who are featured here I have developed relationships with over the course of several weeks or months. Ginger is no exception … but yet she is. In a previous post today, I spoke to you about how wonderful Ginger is and gushed over her a little bit. I try not to do this often, as some of my guests find it a tad embarrassing. However, what I want each of my readers to understand is that Ginger truly is a very special person.
