WOYWW 253--More Ear Candy Than Eye Candy

Here's the side view of my madness and mess! Inbetween my stitching and art journaling, I've been making ear candy earrings, little tags for them to go on for a future craft fair, more bubble wand necklaces with my new Urban Ice beads, and bead and wire rings--I call them Bliss Rings!
I'm using blocks our kids don't play with anymore to mount my dollar cling rubber stamps (not clear stamps though).
I'm just in heaven when I'm at my crafty table and watching Call the Midwife and Mr. Selfridge! Loving this new season of both  shows. In other news this week, hubby and I are getting the gardens ready for planting and airing the house out on the pretty days. My little nephew is taking his first acting class--stay tuned, he may be the next Brad Pitt. (who is from my town, and his sweet family lives here) And we've started our flea market booth now. How do I have time to work? I have no idea.

Join our desky linky party here. You will meet busy creative souls all over the planet.

Have a wonderful day lovely deskers! Crafty hugs!

  4. Pretty little jewlry pieces. I enjoy buying these at our craft events. Cause I don't want to start any more new projects. I spotted 2 tiny alpha stamp sets...I purchased 5, thought one was numbers. Darn Liked the variety of fonts. Enjoy WOYWW..

  20. Bliss rings ...what a great name! Your desk looks fab, the colour and the light make it so warm and inviting. I'm loving the tags and the jewellery, the packaging is often the difference between buying from one booth or another, so you win!

  21. loads of creative things here, those earrings are lovely!

  22. Ear candy is such a great name for earrings..clever you! Bliss Rings is a good term too...together with the fab packaging, you ought to sell loads. Good Luck!
    The weather has definitely warmed up here in the UK and so I've been busy in the garden and greenhouse too....I love it when all the shoots starting growing :-). It's not very peaceful in my garden today as we have got builders in replacing all the mortar in one of our house walls...a noisy, dusty job! Sigh, gotta be done though.
    Ad look at you with your No 1 spot. Wahoo, enjoy the glory :-)

  30. Ooooh pretty, pretty, pretty, Sandy! All good enough to eat!! I love the cards you are mounting the earrings on, too, and your quite beautiful blog background and header. What a creative lady!!

    As for Mr. Selfridge and Call the Midwife, I am with you on that - I have absolutely loved both, and my Sunday evenings are not the same now both have finished!

    Thanks for your visit and your lovely comment. Salmon has to be the epitome of bliss where kitties are concerned. Our older cat Beatrice has been through the mill over the past few months with operations on her teeth and the removal of a lump from her back, and she has a delicate tummy and is sick a lot so is on a special diet. To try and encourage her to eat, we made the grave mistake of giving her some salmon, and I think she's now holding out for more! Nothing else quite measures up!

    Happy WOYWW,

  31. Oh I want to come and shop for candy on your desk - those are so pretty and springlike.

  32. Looks like a very colourful production line you've got going there! I'm impressed at how many desks I've visited today which feature items that are going on sale. Us crafters certainly have an entrepreneurial edge don't we?!
