Who doesn't love a chubby, sparkly snowman?

I finally finished the Sparkly Snowman tutorial!! I've just added it to Lessons from The Nest ~ it's priced at 12.00 ~ These adorable snowmen make the most wonderful gifts!
Just click HERE to visit the tutorial blog.










You know what's great? Getting my Country Living magazine in the mail BEFORE I see it on the newstands! I think it's wonderful that they are good to send it out to subscribers first. It used to make me nuts to see a magazine at the grocery store and I had not received my issue in the mail yet. I've been known to go ahead and buy it!! I guess the joke's on me :)

This one looks wonderful, I've still got to sit down and enjoy it. It also has a mini issue printed upside down in the back....full of treats! Just thought I'd give you a look ~





Can you believe it's time for the holidays already? I've been talking to my mom about Thanksgiving dinner and know it will be here in the blink of an eye! Wishing you a wonderful Wednesday sweet friends ~


xxoo, Dawn

Can't believe the holidays are upon us, but I am glad too - I love Christmas ornaments and goodies.

Love the snowman! Too cute.

Your snowman is so cute!!! And I love the sparkle! Dawn, I forgot to count my treatment time in on your clothespins.... it will be a few days before I can drive my goodies to the post office. Have you decided on a theme for your shower?

Oh.. I forgot to tell you! I signed up to go to Art and Soul May 2009 in VA to a Lisa Kaus class! YEAH!!! And I never heard from Jenny.

No fair! I haven't received my Country Living yet. Hope it gets here soon. Love the little snowman. He makes me think of my grandmother who passed away this summer. She was quite the crafter and I have MANY snowmen that she made.

The snowman is adorable.
I love Christmas magazines. I buy the Christmas issues of several that I don't read any other time of year.
There's so much inspiration out there - I just wish I could do it all!

The chubby snowman is adorable!

You know what makes me crazy? When I go to the bookstore on the day of release for a Somerset publication to find they only ordered about five copies and they are sold out!!!!! I did manage to snag the last copy of Where Women Create yesterday but I did not get to see yours or Nancy's wonderful stuff featured in recent publications! That makes me nuts! I will either have to subscribe or drive 45 minutes to obtain them.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!

Dawn, What IS the date anyway? I know! Christmas is just around the corner, but would you believe I'm actually already painting Christmas images for next year and even 2010!
That's why I hardly ever know what today's date is!
The snowman is so sweet and sparkly!

Tonight I'm going to be looking through all of this year's Victoria magazines! I'll curl up on the couch and just drool.

I'm so glad you stopped by and found a little blessing in Mildred's story. She really is an amazing woman. I am blessed every time I visit here, your creativity always spurs me on!

He's even cuter "in person"! I'll be getting this tutorial for sure! I love snowmen. I got my issue of Country Living today too! I'm getting ready to have a cup of coffee and delve into my magazine for the next few hours. I usually see something different every time I look through it. Thanks for sharing the little jolly snowman!~

PS...I also noticed today at the bookstore that Enya has a new CD coming out on Nov 22!

Hi Dawn!
Sweet snowman! Your Country Living may come early/on-time, but mine never does! Last month I gave up and bought one (so excited to see the Silver Bella spread)...only to have mine arrive a week later! I'll try to wait this time...but you're making it hard with the picture of both sides!!! :)
