rosie comes to town

The winner of the key fob is comment #3 from Leslie. I am particularly glad that Leslie won. She and I have become friends (of sorts- cyber friends) lately. I am quite sure that if Leslie lived close, she and I would be tight. Leslie's blog is a room somewhere. Over the past few weeks she has raised $3254.00 for Stephanine and Christain Neilson. She is still auctioning off various fun things to add to the fund. Stop by her blog and see what she's got going on.

In other news, Rosarita (no they aren't back together) will be flying in today to spend some time with yours truly. After I pick her up from the airport, we will be headed over to see a Georgia O'Keeffe exhibit, maybe catch some lunch down town, and then to the art store to pick up some canvases. I may force her to collage with me while she is here.

Should be a fun day. Make sure you stop by tomorrow. The giveaways are extra great.

I was recently contacted by a customer of mine about donating some jewelry for a silent auction. The auction will benefit Stephanie and Christian Neilson who were in a private plane crash on August 16th. The pilot of the crash died and Christian and Stephanie have substantial injuries. They have four kids. If you would like to bid on my jewelry up for auction, or donate an item of your own to be auctioned, please visit the wonderful blog of Leslie Horn.

Here are my earrings that she will be auctioning:

If you would just like to donate cash, please go to the benefit blog.
