She Wore Flowers in Her Hair

A special thanks goes out to Patty this morning :) Patty is co-owner with her daughter Ruthie of kstreasures on Etsy.

Patty has several wonderful crocheted items in their shop and she made me some super cute flower hair clips!!!

I love that these are a little bigger than the ones I already had so I can use them several different ways.

This is normally how I pull my hair back. Just one piece in the clip.

And now I can pull it back like this. Just run the clip along the side of my hair and done :)

Here is another of Patty's items I love from their shop. Go find your favorite today :)

New Earrings!!!

I just love getting new jewelry...especially when it's free!!! You just can't beat free! My friend Ruthie over at Rose Works Jewelry is having a monthly contest to see who leaves the most comments. And I was the lucky winner for May :) This got me a $15 gift certificate to her shops and lookie what I got:

The African Opals are definitely my favorite. Pink, Teal, and Purple are about all my wardrobe consists of, so I can wear these with almost everything I own! And they are so colorful and fun...I love fun jewelry :) I got them in the mail yesterday and had to wear them to the wedding we attended last night.

So what are you waiting for...stop by Ruthie's blog and leave her some comments. A new contest in underway for June. Or stop by her shops http://www.roseworksjewelry.etsy.com/ or http://www.kstreasures.etsy.com/ and get some great jewelry at great prices!!!

Thanks again Ruthie...I love them all!!!

Meet Ruthie of RoseWorksJewelry

Today I would like to introduce you to one ambitious girl: Ruthie :) Not only does she run RoseWorksJewelry and has started a second shop with her mom called kstreasures...she also has three (yes, three!) blogs: http://roseworksjewelry.blogspot.com/ http://www.roseworkstreasury.blogspot.com/ http://ajedismusings.blogspot.com/ Oh, and I almost forgot to mention that she also hosts a radio show called Artisan Spotlight. Now that's a lot for one girl to do! I'm almost exhausted just telling you about it :) I really find Ruthie inspiring! She is such an active team member in our EtsyBloggers Team and is always giving complements and words of encouragement. She is always upbeat and has something positive to share :) She started making jewelry because some health issues kept her home more and she needed something to fill her days. She took what could have been a negative time in her life and turned it into a wonderful experience :) Thanks Ruthie for showing us all that remaining positive is the way to be :) And now for my favorite items from her shops :) RoseWorksJewelry: I love her Purple and Spiral Earrings and her Multicolored Agate Strand Bracelet. kstreasures (Kindred Spirit Treasures): And from her new shop, I love this Serenely White Cell Phone Holder made by her mom and this Thinking Spring - Cell Phone Charm, Zipper Pull, or Key Chain made by Ruthie.

Now go check out her wonderful items and leave her some great comments on her blogs :)
