Here is my picture:

It's from my 30-year high school class reunion in 2004 (Yep, I graduated from high school in 1974!) I was 48 yrs. old when this picture was taken. The tall skinny guy is my hubby. :) He went to a different high school, and we didn't know each other way back then. We are an old married couple in this photo, since we got married in 1988. The reunion was really fun. It was nice seeing people I went to school with. I was surprised how many of them recognized me right away. I recognized some, but boy, people can change in 30 years! I like this picture because I look tall. My husband is 6 ft. tall, and I'm 5'3." I always wear 3" or even 4" heels when we go out, so it's easier to dance with him! I had long hair then, too, which I've chopped off (see my blog header). We had a great time at the reunion. My best friend from high school and I are still BFFs, and she and her hubby sat with us at the reunion, along with another best friend and her husband. Our graduating class hasn't had a reunion since, which is good in a way. I turned 50 and fell apart! LOL!

I'm on Zibbet, too!

I'm still selling on Etsy, and my main shop is there, but I decided to try Zibbet and see what happens. So far, I like some things about Zibbet very much, but also have found some things I dislike. Right now it's "wait and see" with Zibbet. The site still is in Beta. Check out the cute link boxes on the side bar here. They do let you have those for free, and it's sort of like the Etsy Mini. The link to my Zibbet store (box with the clothesline) is right under my Etsy Shop slideshow, and the box with the easel takes you to the Zibbet home page.
I'm MsAnomaly on both sites! :)

Beagle Angel

My Mom loved the Snow Queen beagle so much, she wanted one for herself. I made a Beagle Angel last year, and she requested an angel ornament. I bought another beagle head bead from NanjoDogz, and here is this year's Beagle Angel, and my mother's Christmas gift! ;)

Beagles, Snow Queens, and Kings

This ornament is my entry for the Etsy Beagles Street Team's "Happy Howl-i-days" winter team challenge. The bead is made by Etsy artist NanjoDogz. I've previously used 2 other beagle head beads from Nancy to make other beagle figures. I love the detail in her beads. You can see how beagle-like the little Snow Queen bead is, when compared to my beagle, Flash, aka king of all furniture. He loves to knock the back seat cushion down on this chair in front of our picture window, and lie on it to observe the comings and goings within his kingdom. I hope you enjoyed seeing the Snow Queen ornament, and my spoiled little guy, too!

Shameless promotion: the Beagle Snow Queen ornament is currently for sale in my Etsy shop. I will donate a portion of its sale to the local Animal welfare League of Trumbull Co., OH! :0)

White and Brass

Some more necklaces I made; white and brass .
