Gothic Arches Challenge-Hearts
The poem says: Love is anterior to life
Posterior to death,
Initial of creation, and
The exponent of breath.
It is a little late, but at least I got it up before the end of February. I used the arch template from Inky Fingers, K& Co paper, vintage lace and button, and the image came from the internet. I am working on the new one for Butterflies and hope to have it up soon. Thanks for looking!
Vintage style Hair Barrettes
These are made from an old pillowcase that I ripped up and dyed with red food coloring. I added bits of vintage lace, hand stamped ribbon, and some dyed cotton chenille yarn and a tiny rose and a vintage button. I hope you like them, I thought they turned out great and they were so easy to make!

Smile! It will make you feel better!
"A Smile is happiness you will find right under your nose."-Tom Wilson
If you are sad or feeling down in the dumps, one of the best things to do is SMILE. I know it is hard to do, but try it, it really does help. According to Psychology Today, acting happy is likely to make you happy. They go on to say that happy people show signs of being healthier than pessimist people. Studies show that pessimistic thinking such as, "I can't do it," or, ""things never work out for me," makes a person more vulnerable to illness. They have also shown that optimistic people recover better from serious illness or cancer. If you are a habitual "naysayer"(like me). Start shooting for a mixture of positive feelings to go along with your normal negative ones. A good dose of optimism provides hope and when mixed with a touch of pessimism to prevent complacency and with enough realism, it helps to determine what we can control from those we can't. It is certainly worth trying, especially when there is so much to gain. So, smile more often, even when you don't feel like it. It really does have the power to change bad feelings to better ones!
