Fun with Bottles

I've been playing around with some old bottles in my kiln. This one makes me smile every time I see it! You can see a few air bubbles trapped inside, and these make the top surface a bit curvy so I'm not sure how useful this will be as a plate or tray. I like the cute snowman shape it has, so I'll do some more testing and see what I can come up with. And maybe buy some more yummy Pom Wonderful juice so I have more of these bottles to play with. What would you do with this flattened bottle?

Lucky Deal of the Week: March 8, 2009

This week's bargain is a pretty onyx heart pendant set in 10K yellow gold with 12K rose and green gold accents, reminiscent of Black Hills Gold. The pendant includes an 18" 12K gold-filled chain. The heart is about 3/4" x 3/4". The necklace is new and comes packaged in a gift box. Priced at around $245 or more in a retail store, I've only got one of these sweeties left, and it can be yours for $99 plus actual postage charges. Interested? Leave a comment with a way for me to contact you, or send an email to me at luckygirltrading@yahoo.com. What a beautiful way to show your love!

I Bought the Cutest Toy!

This is Dottie the Ladybug, and I found her at By Nanas Hands on Etsy. She's so cheerful, and soft, and squeezable, that I almost didn't want to part with her! I did though, and now my grandson is busy pulling on her wings and chewing on her antennae. Those parts were triple sewn, so he'll have to do a lot of pulling and chewing to get them loose. Check out By Nanas Hands if you have a minute. She has more super cute stuff--I think Tilly the Snapping Turtle may be on my shopping list soon.

I'm a Twitterer! Or is it a Tweeter?

Joining Twitter has been on my to-do list for a while now, and today it finally made it to the top of the list! I'm not sure how well I'll do at remembering to tweet, but I've heard it can become addictive very quickly so maybe I'll do okay. Want to know what's going on it my little part of the world? I'm LuckyGirlTradin, and this link will let you follow me on Twitter.
