July's Handmade Creations

Last month I fessed up to searching the monthly thread for items to feature here. This month there's quite an eclectic selection...

My geeky heart just about stopped when I got a look at some of the jewelry from this shop. Wow, just wow...

Next, I just couldn't resist this cute guy...

Then, of course, some more jewelry caught my eye. I'm a sucker for dragonflies...

And this is just so bright and pretty...

Then, of course, you need to set your rings someplace when you're doing dishes or such...

Summer. The perfect time for all those home projects that seem to get put aside at other times of the year. So, why not do some redecorating?  

How bare are your walls?

Although these centerpieces will fit in with just about any color you can come up with.

But I'll always be partial to orange...
