Well, I am back!  I have been concentrating on listings, .com, and the .com blog lately.  All listed under allthecolorsofcreation. 

I have some stuff just collecting dust at the retreat.  One of them being a livestock tattoo set.  It is closing in a few hours, so if you nead one grab it now.  It has lots of extra letters and numbers.  Plus it is a 5 numnber system, most are 4 number.

We also just learned that our guardian dogs at our retreat are expecting soon! They work great for us at the retreat.  We have mountain lion, bear, neighbor dogs and two legged predators.  These dogs work great as a group and one on one.  We have a neighbor who swears by our dogs. 

Two years ago there was a bad storm and one of the dogs with the herd saw a stranded motorist at 3:00AM.  The temps were 30 below and the snow was coming down hard.  The dog got the persons attention and got this gentleman to let him in.  That dog stayed curled up with him until long into the next day once the storm cleared.  He firmly believes the dog saved his life.

Anyway, if you have livestock or in need of a protective companion, we will have pups available early summer.  As soon as I figure out how to build the page, you will be able to see pics and bios of Mom, Dad and siblings on a page in our .com.  We are also looking for someone willing to trade pups with us.  Male or female, no matter, just sound good guardian lines. 

Today I am busy with mixes and assortments for tonights listings.  Most of what I am posting are new styles of assortments.  I will be back to the 11/0 and 6/0 assorts tomorrow.  Plus I have some more Grade A Cat's Eye in 4mm.  These are so much nicer than what we have been offering up until now.

Well, this week it is the North East.  I guess we need to put the retreat back on the calander but fun with family is on the agenda for a bit for now. 

KEEP CRAFTING,

The Swarovski is finally done!  Any tips on good images for 1.9 mm or 5ss flat backs?  I have one good immage, one that in my opinion is too small and one fuzzy.  The good one I can not duplicate.  I have so many more to do in the next few months, I need to find a better way!

I am auctioning some assorted stuff that I can not replace. That will post today along with starting the 6/0 beads.  Next bits and pieces and supplies.  Once I have enough I will be having a grand opening that will last for a week. 

Any thing I have a 1/2 kilo or more of,  I will post auctions of some of these as well once the store is filled.  Keep an eye out for them!  

I know my store is nothing much to look at right now, but if you are interested, please sign up for our newsletter and I will send out something a few days before the sale.

No new guides yet, but I have made listing my priority, hopefully I can get to guides and basic pattens soon!

Thank you for visiting,

Keep crafting with All the colors of HIS creation!

Okay, maybe I wasn't going to get that much done.  My goal was to list a certain amount yesterday.   The hardest part was designing the first add.  Took longer than I thought.  Maybe today I will finish the pressed glass in stock and then swarovski........  God always has better things in mind for my day than I do. 

Speaking of........I try to be a spiritual person.  Seams it is human nature to fall short, but I do my best.  Do you ever wonder if you are living a viscious cycle, or if you are experiencing tests of faith and if you hang in there and follow the right path you will come out on top? 

Anyway, my "walk with the ice" was hours ago, I have visited with my neighbor of the moment and had a cup of hot tea to warm me back up.  I had best get to work.  If I don't this collection will never pay for itself.

Yesterday was a travel day so I was away, but I noticed I still had some traffic in my postings.  I am taking that as a positive sign. 

Today I hope to get all my Jablonex 6mm Predssed glass and Swarovski in the store.  I have so many inspiring colors available, but only a portion to put in the store today.  If they are popular enough my goal is to add colors and other sizes every month. 

Given time I am planning some more  guides.  My first is getting some look-ies.   But no rating.  Maybe they need pictures and color?!?  I had nothing available the other day and was eager to get something in to let people know I am here.  My next should less "monotone" 

In an attempt to keep costs down (I sank every extra penny I had in acquiring this stockpile) I am only filling the store, and not doing auctions as the norm.  There is so much more I am noticing I can offer, I want to save every extra penny to place my first order with my suppliers. 

Just a note about "HIS Creation":  Have you ever lived or experienced a large body of water in the winter?  I find myself on Lake Ontario infrequently, and I am drawn by the soothing effect of a quite moment listening to the ice move.  I can spend hours in a less traveled spot bundled up and meditating, reading or drawing.  The sound of the ice is something my ears crave in the winter.  I can be anywhere when winter starts to bite, but for some reason I am drawn to the southern shores of this Lake.

Thanks for spending a few moments listening to my rambling.

I am new to all this, and hope you can all forgive any mistakes I am sure to make in the near future.  I always learn my lessons the hard way!

But....  I love to craft and travel, so I thought Ebay would be a perfect fit as a business for me.  I am very thrifty by nature, so hopefully I can pass on some deals that others have not been able to find. and maybe some of my items will be sale-able.  I guess I will soon find out?!?

Any way, lots to do.  Hopefully I will get a store open soon and you can all see what I have to offer, in the mean time, I will be listing bits and pieces as I figure out how to do it, and doing some guides from some of the stuff I have learned to try and let people know I am here.

Thank you for checking this all out.

In the mean time............Enjoy All the colors of His creation
