Caty Ann's Creations

I found Caty Ann's Creations though the team I am on through Etsy On Fire for Handmade. Her shop has all kinds of jewelry in it and even some things that are not jewelry. She is so creative. And she uses all kinds of color. Her imagination seems to know no bounds. You can find her on Artfire.
You can read her blog. You can catch her on Facebook. Caty seems to be one awesome lady filled with a heart of creativity. Go explore who she is. You just might find someone you can connect.

Christopher Williams

There is an awesome artist named Christopher Williams that my husband first met in Sacramento, California. He does magnificent portraits. And is truly talented and blessed with amazing ability. The talented that flows through his tools when he uses them is just...I am without words he is so wonderful. You can see his work at his about me page while you read about him. My husband wrote about him here. You can see all of his amazing work from there. He just leaves me speachless. KRS-One recognized his talent when he saw the portrait he did of him. This man is so talented and I want him to find immense success. Go take a look at his about me page and then you can see the rest of his webpage.

Etsy Blogger Style File

I am so excited. The new and first Etsy Blogger Style File included one of my watches in it's collections. Right out of the blue my watch was included! That's right! You can see and read about it here. It is a cute collection and you really should swing by and take a look. I just finished...or almost finished a watch today. Very pretty, it is! My husband is gonna have to start taking pictures again.

Anyway, go take a look

Today is an Odd Day

I have been wanting to make more watches for my shop. I made my sister a watch and customized a customer a watch that I sold to her. So now I am feeling the creativity flowing. As you all know I have Bipolar that is kept in check with meds. I am extremely lucky...no fortunate that it is very sensitive to the chemicals in medication. When I feel swings happening I can tell my doctor and she can adjust my meds in the smallest of ways and it helps. I told her about 3 weeks ago that I was feeling swingy and she adjusted the meds and I evened out. I started sleeping better yet I am still missing whole sleeping night and waking early as I did this morning. And today I feel myself in a downward spiral. It just feels like the darkness is coming in. I am irritable too. I am feeling the need to meditate. I am still feeling the need to create. That's good. I would like to make some watches for the holidays. Not holiday watches but, I would like to add some new watches to my shop for the holidays.

Anyway, I have also been doing readings and there may be some not so good energy hanging onto me if I have not shielded myself as well as I should. So I have a friend working on me long distance and I will be doing Reiki on me this morning and meditating. I am sure this will help. Clearing any murky energy will also help my creativity.

Thanks for reading...I know this was a bit of a different entry. But I like to share my personal stuff as well as the other stuff as you all know. Any comments are always welcome. Do you go through something similar? Do you have a mental health issue? I truly would love to read about it. Until next time...be well and happy and have fun!

What are We Doing for Halloween

What are my plans for Halloween?

This is a simple question with a simple answer. I plan to stay home with my husband and 2 dogs and 1 cat. Our outside light will be out and our blinds will be down. No candy will be given out. Why? Because each time the door is knocked upon my dog, Chopper, wants to tear the door down and eat the person dressed in the odd costume. He does not understand that it is a human dressed in the costume. He only sees the odd costume. He reacts before he smells. This is a stress my husband nor I need and so we take the easy way out by eating chocolate and watching scary movies on Halloween night. We put a sign that lies, “All out of candy.” A small white lie? Yes. Are we going to Hell? Probably. Is Chopper calmer and happier? Yes and so am I.

SplendidLittleStars

I have a shop that I want to share with you. It is called Splendid Little Stars. This scarf is one of the treasures that is in her shop. She has all kinds of fun things in her store. She has things like hats, scrunchies and tie-dyed shirts. I am partial to this scarf and I am hoping that since I am highlighting it one of you will snap it up. If it were square I would get it myself to cover one of my crystal balls. I really love this scarf. This is a really cute shop and hope you go visit Splendid Little Stars.

We're open!

It's into September and all of my shops are open. I have a new watch shop at Zibbet and I invite you to go there and visit and buy if you wish. I closed my watch shop at ArtFire. I still have Helen's Light Readings at ArtFire. I also still have my Etsy shop of watches. And I have my Helen's Light Readings on Etsy. I invite you to any of my shops. Make yourself at home.

Speaking of home. We are in a rental home and making it our own. Still lots to unpack but, unlike the last one, this one feels like home. I have all my beading things out so I can customize any watch anyone chooses now. I am excited to be settling. I hope all of you are doing well. As always comments are welcome.
