It is SUMMER

It really is Summer.

The weather is beautiful here in Utah.

The sun is shining and it is not too hot. . .

I am loving it right now.

I won't like it in a few weeks as the temperature climbs and it becomes toooooo hot!

Aw, but the joys of SUMMER! I am busy as can be.

My hand is feeling much better.

Each day is an improvement.

I still can't do my delicate handwork,

but I can do other things I like to do.

I have told you I would show some of my completed projects.

Well. . . . here they are (just a few)

You see my shelf?

Well, it hasn't always looked like that. . .

it use to be red.

I loved my red shelf,

but along with the hearts, red isn't the "in" color any more.

Soooooo me and the spray paint hit the shelf.

Oh, I almost forgot.

I hung it a few months ago in my living room

and just a few weeks ago when it was really windy I went out my front door

when I came in the door, the wind slammed the door shut

and the Red Shelf went flying off the wall. . . .!

Ya, it did!

Everything on the shelf went flying. . .

and somethings landed on the floor in pieces. I

was so upset,

I went to my bedroom to lay down.

Ya, I couldn't handle it at the time. . . .

but as with all things

at some point you have to clean up the mess and move on!

So....... I painted the shelf and re-arranged it.

Oh, I forgot to say one thing. . .

I didn't have it ancohored in a "stud"!

Maybe why it fell off the wall. . . . .

Thank goodness for my son Blake,

he anchored it to a "stud" and it is sturdy
I like my shelf

This is a completed project. . .

Dollar Store and DI, Spray Paint, and Gorilla Glue!

The bird is from Dollar Store and spray painted. . . .

pedestal is DI (junk/treasure) and spray paint and Gorilla Glue. . .

Ya, it is two DI plates for 50 cents each,

and a candle stick,

and a cheese doom (that fancy word that starts with a "c".).

The blue jug is from DI and spray painted.

The pitcher and plate are DI and spray painted

and the blue glass under the pitcher is dollar store. . . .

I tell ya, you can do anything with spray paint and gorilla glue.

Well, today's trip to DI was good. These are a few of the things I got.

(Not the micro-wave or the Micky D cup)

I love "milk glass" I collect it. . . .

I get it from DI. . .

I liked my treasure I found today.

I also collect salt and pepper shakers.

Another treasure.

The glass pieces I got so I could try a new DIY project.

I will show you the results once it is finished.

Just remember the clear glass and how it looks in this picture.

It won't look this way when I am done with it. . . . .

These are just my ramblings and my show and tell.

If you can stand it I will have more

in the next few days.

I tell ya, I have a cute 4th of July project.

I constantly have the urge to create. . . .

I love going to thrift stores

and out of the way places

I think it is the thrill of the hunt!

Just my Daley Life.
