Today was far more productive than I had anticipated it would be. As we had heard it was going to be a hot one, I had not planned to do a lot - certainly not anything that would require any physical output. On days such as these, I tend to spend more time on my computer and less time working on projects or in the garden. Today however I wasn't able to be on the computer as our internet (and phones for that matter) were out for much of the afternoon. Thus, I was able to finish various odds and ends that had been calling to me for far too long. One project that I had been working on quite a bit these past few days was working on my first set of necklaces. As I hadn't made them for someone else before, I wasn't aware of how long it would take to make them look a bit nicer than mine ( more finish work was required for me to even consider sending them off to my beloved customers!). That being said, after running out to one of my favorite ribbon stores to pick up just the right ribbon for them, I have completed the three, they are boxed up, and ready to go out. They actually would have gone out today had I had access to my internet and the addresses of their destinations... I can't wait to get them posted tomorrow!
I also want to introduce you to my new best friend today. I had purchased this vintage fan a while back as I loved the color. How was I to know that she would also work - and keep me cool on the hottest day so far this year! Oh, how I love this little blue angel~
Have a lovely evening my friends,
