She is doing well, and some of her other complications are clearing up as well. She had a wonderful holiday. And then, the wedding bouquet you made is one of the prettiest things I have seen. I sure hope she uses it. It's gorgeous!! I went to my booth yesterday and it was a total wreck. I think something has sold because I don't see it and then I find it hidden behind something or under my shelving. I think people hide things until they decide they don't want it. Amazing! I had plans to redo in a new theme for January but decided instead to run a huge furniture sale to see if I could move some things. I have so much more to bring in. We shall see. Love all the pretty smalls you made. xoxoAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-464562679611579552.post-1278669556477762962012-01-06T15:01:27.140-05:002012-01-06T15:01:27.140-05:00couldn't make it without the smalls anymore. y...couldn't make it without the smalls anymore. yours are wonderful !Francie...The Scented Cottage Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06317339284013000879noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-464562679611579552.post-21139600322773042822012-01-06T13:58:29.545-05:002012-01-06T13:58:29.545-05:00Oh my gosh, I am so happy I found your blog!
