Fire Pit Make Over!

Since fire season is here and we are not going to have open flames for a while, I had to do something with the fire pit that sits in the middle of the Terrazza. Really ugly to see, an empty, gray fire pit. So I pulled few things together and Voila'.

Dean comes home and sees my creation and....his comment. "Ah! more things to burn".

Linking to Faded Charm for another wonderful White Wednesday

3 more posts and.......we are going to have a GIVEAWAY!

Ciao for now

Happy Monday!

I still love my Mondays.

I did accomplished so much last week and I am sure I will have more accomplished this coming week.

Lisa Loria and I worked for hours Thursday on finishing the crown sample for our class August 27th. It is amazing. So many elements have been added to this crown. This is it! by taking this class you will learn all the different tequiniques and tricks about solder. It's an intermidiate and advance class only, sorry about that. I am still teaching beginner classes so please take one of those and Lisa and I are planning to teach more crown classes in the near future. For more info on this Love Nest Crown class check out HERE.

I finished few projects for the next shows....Arizona in August and The Vintage Marketplace in September. Love the colors! Pink wagon, spindles, birdhouses and much more.....

I also had time to add 2 pendants on etsy.

This coming week I am looking forward to teach the solder bottle class with bubble charm / ceramic heart.

I will be at Rooster Creek in Old Town Temecula.

Ciao for now

My Day.....

My Day....La mia giornata

before I can create, my day has a few up and downs....meaning walking up and down the hills! lol

this could be boring for some of you and interesting for others. I decided to take the camera along for the ride.

"La cucina"

7am

Cleaned the stove while waiting for the Espresso machine to worm up!

My Sweetest shadow ever is Benny.....

I finally figure out that he sits in my chair so I will remember to give him is cookie.

Feed the fishes.

For every animal that we rescue there is a story.

The story goes that we had 2 turtles and you feed them live gold fish. The turtles died and we were left we 3 gold fish and now there are 10!

Humming bird food? Check...

Roosty, out!

We rescued Roosty from been eaten by a raccoon. He is missing one eye because of it and has been rejected by the other chickens. He is my other shadow.

Out!!

Feed Roosty

What a beautiful day in Rainbow.....

Feed the rest of the chickens... down down

back up, up.....

finally I am in my little world........

what's the plan? too many things to finish, let see if I can do it in one day.

3 signs almost done

the plan is also to solder today

2 birdhouses are finished

priced the silver German glass glitter and mica

I think I know what to do with this piece of metal,I will share in another post.

price the signs

back outside...this is my favorite geranium. Have you ever seen something so beautiful?

My mamma always said that geraniums are

"the rose of the poor"

so grateful my dogs have a good life!

Laying in the sun all day long.

Time for some gardening, 5 mins max!

took the basil out of the bathtub and planted some chard...the parsley is doing really well too.

Lunch

1pm

tomato, cucumber and onion salad. Am I on a diet? no, it's just so Delizioso and fresh.

time to get the mail...this is my only exercise 300 feet

years ago my neighbor ask permission to put a sign on our tree, sure! Now...., the way I read/translate the meaning of the sign is: that the kids have some problems, they are slow? Just my translation from the Italian to English.

What about slow down, children are crossing? playing?
