A little under the weather..ahhhhemmmm!!!

Not to much to post about today. It's raining and just a blah day which makes already feeling blah even more so of a blah day. So...BLAHHHHH!!! HEHE...not complaining though, at least the good Lord let me rise and almost shine today. ^_^

My muse apparently was feeling the blahs herself as she didn't bounce around and whisper in my ear so I just didn't do to much of anything today except to rest. I did manage to visit a few blogs this morning, that always makes me feel better...seeing what everyone else is up to. The Beading Gem's Journal had a cute post today about bookmarks. I LOVE making bookmarks of all kinds and she showed some cute ones today. I am always reading something (actually will have a few books going at a time...I know...that can get confusing but my mind is a jumble already so no worries) and am always losing misplacing my bookmarks. I decided to try and make the cat and mouse that Pearl had shown today. (Just for my use) The artist name is Marcsi and she has a cute Etsy shop called TuranianWalk.


Aren't these cute? Marcsi used a heavier wire but since the ones I made are just for me then I used my thin memory wire. Hard to work with for bookmarks but I had some and I so need to use it. ^_^


If you go to Pearl's post then you will see that mine are a tad bit different. I didn't want to copy Marcsi's work but I did like her idea of a cat and mouse.



Once I did the cat and mouse, I thought about making a heart one...ok..as you can see, I actually made two heart ones. I do believe that I'm going to get a heavier wire and make some for Christmas gifts. Not to bad for thinking on my own in a BLAHHHH mood, eh?

Until next time..........Hugs,
Regi

  1. I see you have been inspired! Memory wire is really tough to bend so you did well to make your bookmarks!
