Hello,

It seams I keep wanting to get my fiber painted and listed, but taking care of the rest of the listings that are already take up all of my time.  I just love to play with my yarn, rovings and fabric so much and all that color......  It kills me.

We are going to be getting all of *~Ateles~* finished items up over the next few days.  We are listing on Etsy also, so this will tell us where she is preforming better.  Both are running a FREE SHIPPING OFFER!!!  There is not much yet, but they will fill up by Friday, or I will not go to Downpour.  Keep checking she has over 20 beautiful items, most of the new stuff has Cat's Eye, Czech and Swarovski in it.  She has also been doing alot with Antiqued Brass.  A wonderful look!!!

Speaking of free shipping.  We now have a $6.50 cap on our shipping!  Each addit. purchase is only $1.00 for Store and BIN.  Once you reach $6.50 (most sales this is 4+) every items after in no addit S&H and  your order goes out within 24 hours Priority.

I almost have all the immages for beading supplies and just placed another large order.  Lots of color and cool stuff to inspire.  Just email if you do not see what you want.  I have reached the point where if I can not use my scanner I will just borrow the one from my supplier.

Thank you all for your patience, sticking with us and checking often to see what we have.  Our daily views on our home page keeps going up, so I take that as a sign that you are watching for stuff you are interested in.  I'll get it all there, maybe by 2010 at this point.  LOL The best thing if you would like is to sign up for our newsletter and I can email weekly as to our brand new listings.  Let me know if this would be better for you and I will get it set up.

Have a great day. 

Thank you for visiting!

Okay, this is my beading and fiber blog.  So I will start with that.  We have started listing out new shipment as well as over 15 new jewelry items from *~Ateles~*.  I also am placing a new order with lots more to come in the next two weeks.

But this has been an interesting couple of days.  I have noticed recently that our (just turned) 2yr old has been sticking thing in his ears, nose and mouth. More than any of our other children.
Just a few weeks ago I had a really bad day with him, every time I turned around it was something else. I pulled out 2 air soft pellets, a pebble, some cotton, a crumb of bread, etc.......
This should have been a sign to me!
A week ago we noticed he had really bad breath, could not get it to go away. Then about the same time my husband and oldest started getting the sniffles, he had one runny nostril, but it was yellow/green. Another sign. But I didn't think much of it at the time.
Well two days ago, he started complaining so out came the nose syringe(sp?). After 10 min of hysterics, restraint and figuring out that we needed to trim the end to be the right size for his older nostril we pulled a piece of gum wrapper out of his nose!!!
We should of known that was not all of it. Way too easy! Yesterday he started to complain and the smell was back worse and the snot almost brown.
I pulled an even bigger chunck out after worse hysterics than the day before, but this time his nose started to run clear and he said (NO KIDDING) "Thank You" when I was done.
Poor little guy!!! Any way, anything strange coming out of your kids nose? I would really appreciate it if someone else would share so I don't feel like I am a complete idiot at the moment.

Okay, this is a test.  I would like to know why you can see the html on my overall page?  If anyone who is reading this can answer for me I would appreciate a shout.  This will also tell me (I hope) how much traffic I get in here.

The images of the new stuff are not done yet.  still waiting for it to cool more.  My husband is too over protective of his phone.  My list of requirements for using it were giving me a head ache, so I started praying for a storm.

They are here!!!!!

I am so excited, they finally made it.  Now my printer will not work ARGGG!!!! How frustrating.

It is a heat and air quality issue in combination with our generator.  They two of them are in cahoots this summer to make every event be twice as hard and take 10X longer than they should.  This is why some of you receive your packages with stamps or USPS printed postage. 

I am praying every day that we will cool down so it will all work right.  Please put my printer and generator in your prayers? (Ha-Ha) As if they rate up their with your familys health and well being.

I will get up bright and early, before the roosters tomorrow and get some immages, or make my husband leave his phone at home and use his blackberry to take photos.  WOW, What a good idea!!  I will bump back all my stuff for today and do that this afternoon.

Watch everyone.  They may not be as exciting for you, but I have been praying for this day for a long time.  Next week once they are listed I will start posting patterns and beading instruction guids and blurbs about tricks we have learned here as well.

Please keep checking in and let me know you have been here.

Thank you for visiting! :-)

Hello one and all.

It's been one long day on the mountain.  It seems the more I want to accomplish, the less I get done.

I have spent the past two days attempting to "network" to drive traffic to our Artsy service site.  This drove traffic like I was hoping, but no sales yet.  I guess time and persistance will tell. Email me if you would like to know the place and list there as well.

We will be offering to purchase peoples broken Wilson Cell Phone Antennas, the Car/Magnet styles.  There are some specs we nead to ask you before we can pay for them, but mostly if they do not work and the antenna part is still intact, we will be offering payment for each one we receive.  My husband has some project in mind.  He just wanted me to get the word out.  Email me if you are interested.

Ateles started working on some new stuff today.  Once the weather cools I can list them.  Our generator does not put out enough power to keep the printer/scanner on when it is above 65 with all this smoke in the air.  It has been like this all summer so I do not know if it is the heat or the smoke. They say the fire will be going until we get a substancial snow fall.

This means once I receive our new shipment I will nead to use our suppliers pics. Sorry, I will get original pics in once I can.

Have a great one.  Add more soon!
