Just days away from The Big Reveal of the Big Hole Focal Blog Hop<\/a>, and I am SO excited!! It is seriously the first time I won something online (won gorgeous copper focal, made by Kristi Bowman, artist and hostess of the Blog Hop) and I am SO excited that I get to create something with it and share it! I am also incredibly excited about it because I have never \u00a0partaken in a blog hop before! I know I write and write and write things on the internet, and my family and friends visit occasionally, but now, I will potentially have dozens of people checking out my blog! I hope everyone who visits my blog come away entertained, amused, energized and inspired! As the result of being a part of the BHFBH, I got it in my head to be brave, and join ANOTHER blog hop!<\/p>\n

Mine is the one right in the middle!<\/p><\/div>\n

The 6th Bead Soup Blog Party<\/a> is hosted by a highly energetic, charismatic lady named Lori Anderson of Lori Anderson Designs<\/a>. I don’t know how she does it, but she has 400 participants in this blog party!!! WoW!<\/p>\n

I made quick contact with my partner Gretchen Nation of Gretchen Nation Collection<\/a>, and I am very excited to see that we have many similar interests. I hope the Soup I send her excites her just as much as it excited me! I think I have some real goodies picked out, and with her great creativity and artistic flair, I can’t wait to see what she comes up with!<\/p>\n

Well, I’m back to squeeze in a little more work before we have a great playdate with a super cute kiddo later this afternoon. Come back Saturday, the 30th, and check out my reveal! =^..^=<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
