Welcome back from the weekend. I know, it’s Monday and it came way too soon!
I’m continuing with one of my all-time favorite themes here and created another summery piece of jewelry over the weekend. This necklace features a porcelain sand dollar pendant hand made by Erin of Every Heart Crafts. I’ve named this one Coastal Cottage…there just seems to be a bit of a shabby chic feel to it. I used annealed steel wire for a rustic look, and wire wrapped a mix of pearls, wood and mother of pearl beads in subdued colors. This one’s available in my Etsy shop now.
If you need a smile today, I can’t resist sharing a couple pictures taken over the weekend. The kids were outside again playing with the hose and kiddie pool…and this little guy joined right in. Here he is doing his famous “bear crawl”! 🙂

Life is a bucket of waterballoons!!
One more week of summer flew by too fast. The kids were in various camps this week (competitive sports, crafty kids and amazing animals). When they were out of camp, the hose was on, the slip and slide was ready, and this bucket of water balloons was waiting for action. I hear tomorrow is going to be a hot one! Hope you have a great weekend! 🙂

I was thinking, it’s been some time since I featured a little Etsy window shopping here on my blog. Rather than highlight random Etsy artists, I thought, why not feature pieces from my own blog-land friends. What fun…browsing through your shops. It’s hard to pick out just one thing, but here goes…. I’ll be doing this again so I can make it around to many of you. 🙂
