| Some of the packages I received this week--Goodies! |
Tophatter is a great auction site for buying all sorts of things. I've been spending a lot of time, and money, there buying supplies to create my "masterpieces". Getting packages in the mail can become pretty addictive. Peeking out the window every time you hear a truck pass to see if it's the mail truck. I've been trying to play it cool so I don't start peeking until after 2pm when I know my mail person passes.
Even though you know what you ordered it's still a thrill opening those packages to see what came. I've gotten some REALLY good deals on Tophatter from some great sellers.

| What was in those packages? Destash silver beads, memory wire, silver spacer beads, animal print jewelry boxes, bronze butterfly pendants, genuine garnet beads and a handy jewelry making tool |
I've discovered things that I never knew I needed but now I can't do without them. Great finds that's gotten those creative juices flowing like lava from an impatient volcano. Like feathers! I never thought about using them in my jewelry making. But I kept seeing them come up for bid and I couldn't stop thinking about them. But first I fell for these gorgeous crackle beads.
Then I saw those beautiful green peacock feathers and DING! I HATCHED A VISION!
What a rush! New ideas floating around in this octogan brain. Only problem is, once the ideas start flowing my ability to fall asleep gets weaker. But I know what I have to do...I have to set my visions free! That means I have to stop shopping and start working. I gotta "get 'er done!". The Shakerag Arts & Crafts festival is only about 32 days away now. I want to blow the people away with new and wonderful designs. You'll know on Monday if I've set my visions free. I'll share pictures!
Until Monday, everyone have a wonderful weekend and those of us who have work to do, "GET 'ER DONE!".
Peace be the journey,
Tammy
