My home since the Feb 08 floods.


Note very barren now.Also note the new Air con in right hand corner, was under window before,
but the water came right thru it.
they decide all the trees needed to come out at this time.
I think they were vandals as the trees didnt interfere with the flood.
But I guess it will all grow back one day.when I plant some nice things.

Finding new things

Hi ,
As you can see if you have been here before I have changed the face of my Blog.

Well it is a bit bright and busy but I am attempting to dull it down a bit,but I love the butterflies.

The picture above is of some Butterfly metal plaques I have on my lounge room wall.they are 3D and are cut out and sit off the metal like 3D.

Butterflies are great, they soar and can go anywhere and are a symbol of friendship,at least that is what I think.So think butterflies when you want to soar away with your dreams, and go anywhere you please and reach out to make new friends.

As that is what a blog is, dreaming and making new friends. So come in and leave me a message on my highly bright new blog.There are all sorts of symbolism about butterflies but I prefer to think of the nice symbols for me.

Click on the box in the top lefthand corner , it takes you to the Cutsy site where I found my new colourful page background.There are so many there I am sure you will find one you like.
So like my header here, "Finding new things" is an everyday pastime whether you are here, or in the outdoors, or anywhere, soaring off in your dreams, . There is always something new everyday to be glad about even the smallest thing, so be happy and take each day as it comes and

Soar with Butterflies

Finding new things

Well once again I found something new.
A blog is a marvellous thing isnt it.
In My Fav Sites Look at Topblogsbycrafters.
Click on one called Groggy Froggy.
I found a blog from a gal in N.Z. Called KiwiStiching.
This blog shows where I came from.
Mentions the Chocolate shop we all went to, Yummy!! Shows Pics of Napier. and Hawkes Bay.
Will be going to this blogsite in future.
Well that is all for today, this is too moorish. How will I ever get any craftt done this year.
Will have to get more disciplined I think.

Finding new things

Hi here I am once again.
I have been looking around and came across this wonderful guy, Ari Faber.
Dont know much about him, but found some great Polymer clay tutorials on his site.
Look it up under my Creative Others Album. Particularly Jan 10th 2006.
Dont know where he's gone, or if he still is around but he sure can do a good tut.
Does anyone know of him?
Elizabeth.

A New Year 2009

Hi here I am at last
still learning how to blog. Hope to do more of this this year.
Also hope to get posting new work.
M y fav gal is here, Melanie who taught me so much about poly clay.
Also I have made so many new friends it will be hard to keep up with them unless I spend gobs of time here, but that wont get the work done will it.
I hope too to have a lot of other blogs so you can see all the great things being done and all the lovely friends I have made on the way.
