Well, right now, I have a friend who needs me. You see, my friend <a href="http://www.maggiegracecreates.blogspot.com/">Teresa </a>has recently found out she has kidney cancer. Her left kidney will be removed in the morning. Now, this is one tough cookie - she battled (and won!) breast cancer 14 years ago. I told you she was TOUGH!! Let me also mention that she is my youngest son's Sunday school teacher. She has no choice but to be a strong woman! He crawled into her hospital bed on Saturday with a picture of the two of them holding hands. So, my family loves Teresa. Please keep her (and I know for some of you that she is a total stranger) in your thoughts and prayers tomorrow. </div><div></div><br /><div>Also, as Mother's Day approaches, other blog friends of hers will be having a blog raffle on a <a href="http://healingmaggiegrace.blogspot.com/2010/04/because-this-is-what-you-do.html">blog </a>they've set up - what cool friends you can make in the world of blogging! </div><div align="center">(<a href="http://healingmaggiegrace.blogspot.com/">http://healingmaggiegrace.blogspot.com/</a>) </div><div>I plan to donate a piece of jewelry or gift certificate to the raffle in order to defray the expenses that insurance simply will not cover. So, if you're crafty...please consider donating. And, if you're not crafty, why don't you consider making a purchase of something really cool. Many thanks! </div><div> </div><div align="center"><em><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Hold a true friend with both your hands. </span><span style="font-size:78%;">-- Nigerian Proverb</span></strong> </em></div>Lannae Johnsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08213819035844208044noreply@blogger.com6tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5908756033210079560.post-73986440588857610632010-04-08T12:57:00.000-07:002010-04-08T13:11:32.826-07:00<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifjPD_-DPpE6xmuPzkv9cp5GZZ__nEX88EHJLpyA1IUEEjQ4eGWOQ2-IY6LSSxaX6pmYJyYkmljo5_JTiHogO3E-E5AcDKynHEOWZJ19i4QKoIjgd9ax1aBUIuTbYEADElVzeLokMMBlQP/s1600/mmdg.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5457859059404021634" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 312px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 270px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEifjPD_-DPpE6xmuPzkv9cp5GZZ__nEX88EHJLpyA1IUEEjQ4eGWOQ2-IY6LSSxaX6pmYJyYkmljo5_JTiHogO3E-E5AcDKynHEOWZJ19i4QKoIjgd9ax1aBUIuTbYEADElVzeLokMMBlQP/s320/mmdg.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><div></div><br /><p>Natalie, over at Natalie's Sentiments, is having one INCREDIBLE <span style="font-size:85%;"><em>(or shall I say monumental?)</em> </span>mother's day giveaway!

I do, however, find myself quite intrigued with the sayings they come up with from year to year. Who really comes up with those phrases anyway? Well, I have an entirely different take on those pastel hearts - in the form of jewelry, of course!<br /></div><div align="center">For the gal who has everything and realizes that flowers will not last forever, I introduce to you my <span style="font-size:130%;"><strong><em>conversation heart necklace</em></strong></span>... <img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431595105857736306" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 242px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi85MPx7pVv2UVkzkq0GBDc0et4aSFwAPTSpPVekCrZENwOFrr3Q1Umu1zw6rkAyPmRyhyphenhyphenez8rjEwv7_4tUscz0j-pQ2-fSWH8P3B4vQge8cH5slH-emk8Ii-cyDXp6YGyBcvjUda-tdMio/s320/conversationheart.JPG" border="0" /><br />What a cutie, huh? Now, I went with "be mine", as that is one of my all-time favorite conversation heart phrases; however, you could even consider a name or a date of importance. The necklace consists of a heart soldered to a 1/2" disc, a red coral rondelle dangle and a tag that is stamped and slightly hammered around the edges ($45 on either a 16" or 18" chain.) Ladies...put that bug in your Valentine's ear, as the big day is just around the corner! </div>Lannae Johnsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08213819035844208044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5908756033210079560.post-12048431670202025542010-01-27T13:06:00.000-08:002010-01-27T13:15:50.054-08:00a new design!<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE9iF-XH0DbAtJQtjOqv0WqTHo-IALxz33Pn39A9Wgaj6fvZYoOF82VvaLknrJX7wTHHRoT7aly79BLIbtoQ57Qt0QTNzR-3T0qXm0ArlaG1LLBK0F1er-__Hxgmmfjm87rtKdyddGP93t/s1600-h/beadedbracelet.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5431530753204023730" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 249px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgE9iF-XH0DbAtJQtjOqv0WqTHo-IALxz33Pn39A9Wgaj6fvZYoOF82VvaLknrJX7wTHHRoT7aly79BLIbtoQ57Qt0QTNzR-3T0qXm0ArlaG1LLBK0F1er-__Hxgmmfjm87rtKdyddGP93t/s320/beadedbracelet.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>I have to say I'm loving this bracelet! I love it because it is perfectly classic. Who doesn't love a sterling beaded bracelet? Okay, maybe you don't; however, I'm not <em><strong>really</strong></em> expecting you to answer that rhetorical question. The nice thing about this bracelet, really one of many nice things, is that you can basically add any charm to it you'd like. I've shown it here with the original monogram (yet another classic element); however, we can add discs with children's or grandchildren's names, too! The bracelet is made completely by me with sterling beading chain, 6mm sterling seamless beads and a hefty lobster clasp. It is truly fantastic! Now, I know those of you that already have the monogram earrings or the monogram necklace are really itching to get one of these. And those of you that don't...what is the hold up? The bracelets will be made at the time of order and offered in both 7" and 8" lengths. Contact me to make yours today!! </div>Lannae Johnsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08213819035844208044noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5908756033210079560.post-5507024284725660432010-01-15T11:10:00.001-08:002010-01-15T16:43:19.713-08:00in your own words<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinQ9Ki3xE7NrRlVouSlBaQllOUpS4dBChalrzGOaktvyKUxADz7Uk0WH7rsqqZTEEsBlqFgmt7jw3SnLjD0bRK560E7M6f9UnYn2e1M8jFhLoAjqm922QzVhzkvwUpCSpZH0ExTB1aJ9E8/s1600-h/liveyourbliss.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5427047193002563442" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 200px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEinQ9Ki3xE7NrRlVouSlBaQllOUpS4dBChalrzGOaktvyKUxADz7Uk0WH7rsqqZTEEsBlqFgmt7jw3SnLjD0bRK560E7M6f9UnYn2e1M8jFhLoAjqm922QzVhzkvwUpCSpZH0ExTB1aJ9E8/s320/liveyourbliss.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div>Well gang, I've reached 300 fans on facebook. This seems like a great reason to celebrate to me! It is funny, I still blame my old boss for getting me involved in this facebook thing; however, I find myself needing to thank him now. I've reconnected with so many old friends, stay connected with new ones and expand my little business at the very same time. How cool is that?! So, I'm thanking him (not that he'll want this necklace) and all of my facebook friends who support me by giving away a 1" sterling washer necklace stamped with a phrase of the winner's choice. What a great little gem hanging in the center, huh? So, if you're on facebook....get on over there and enter! Comments will be accepted until 5:00p.m. Tuesday with a winner announced shortly thereafter. Just think of all of those inspirational phrases for the new year that could be stamped and worn around your neck. You're tempted, aren't you? Oh, and you must stay in touch with me and my not-so-regularly-updated blog. I've got new pieces and techniques to share in the coming weeks! Have a great weekend.</div>Lannae Johnsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08213819035844208044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5908756033210079560.post-86282323449180801352010-01-01T09:43:00.001-08:002010-01-01T09:49:32.012-08:00a new year<p align="left"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqzg7Bg-_w_j1q24-WbZ94a5WEvcxQrLLg1ueD5h56W-ocabqGIHTEocOKE3nJiPPwvAaAWQ2J4zxNsIz1oQcfzTfk9YpmG9U2mAdIQlwAo5p8O0RaOjIbc0756gu3G8xWci_tDb7ozCjW/s1600-h/Williamhappy.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421829182007341730" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqzg7Bg-_w_j1q24-WbZ94a5WEvcxQrLLg1ueD5h56W-ocabqGIHTEocOKE3nJiPPwvAaAWQ2J4zxNsIz1oQcfzTfk9YpmG9U2mAdIQlwAo5p8O0RaOjIbc0756gu3G8xWci_tDb7ozCjW/s320/Williamhappy.jpg" border="0" /></a></p><br /><br /><div align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK8DfxvnhquNNfLpKAnIyCwiDa9jv89Po_9g4XrfytKRo8JbEau7bhuLuVyG3I5q4luj7vA458z7ImfY0bwuNNQy8cwZ_Ux01A7E9VpX_4WIU0dG1QyUf6fEPPUAq1YUZAlbTqQTO6ocE-/s1600-h/Walker2010.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421828963623626194" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgK8DfxvnhquNNfLpKAnIyCwiDa9jv89Po_9g4XrfytKRo8JbEau7bhuLuVyG3I5q4luj7vA458z7ImfY0bwuNNQy8cwZ_Ux01A7E9VpX_4WIU0dG1QyUf6fEPPUAq1YUZAlbTqQTO6ocE-/s320/Walker2010.jpg" border="0" /></a><em> (And yes, we all made it until midnight!)<br /><br /></em><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbEh1CrDNajWaWG4sQRStqOEj9ZMY0TLm9uv4cb4FOrR4EUhne3qOLU6CdVDdq49yOYLIDFQIvqmei59nyGMrK1FH-l5pKalXRNJkGIYDkyYZhcrPRxmebkoCYWZM8Y7m6SNDj7vTwV_HC/s1600-h/Williamgrape.jpg"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5421828762812800514" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbEh1CrDNajWaWG4sQRStqOEj9ZMY0TLm9uv4cb4FOrR4EUhne3qOLU6CdVDdq49yOYLIDFQIvqmei59nyGMrK1FH-l5pKalXRNJkGIYDkyYZhcrPRxmebkoCYWZM8Y7m6SNDj7vTwV_HC/s320/Williamgrape.jpg" border="0" /></a><span style="font-size:130%;"><br /></span><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">Wishing you all the blessings this </span></strong><br /><strong><span style="font-size:130%;">new year has to offer!<br /><br /></span></strong><div></div><br /></div>Lannae Johnsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08213819035844208044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5908756033210079560.post-33223071775145602262009-12-30T12:20:00.000-08:002009-12-30T13:21:07.921-08:00Christmas 2009 (in a not so small nutshell)<div align="center">I am sure many of you will be bored with the photos and details that follow; however, this is more for me, Burke and the boys as I document our Christmas this year.

And if I weren't so slack in posting to my blog, you would have known that the first tooth came out a week ago. Of course, it happened at school. I was the unsuspecting mom in the car rider line when Walker comes up holding a little white plastic container shaped like a tooth and grinning a grin minus something he had in his mouth when I had dropped him off that very morning. He was grinning - I was crying. Apparently, it is "cool" to lose your tooth at school. Nevermind that your mother misses one of the biggest moments in your six years of life! His teacher saw it, his class saw it, and it even scored him a trip to see the school nurse who he adores. She gave him the little plastic tooth to keep it in and promised him a spot on her "tooth wall." He thinks it is great in spite of the fact that he doesn't even know what a tooth wall is. I mean...who wouldn't want to be on a tooth wall?<br /><br /><br /><br /><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-o9jqlSHjvFIs0TtcxlFbG4pMVtf4biLUYF__Sd5fnfy6tOysUQYUEptwyiu2fuvOCpbNK3mjFMbvjj8pUCxbezG5BdkwXoK6WC_MJVhdFGIrBAvihR3-VkwJJiYqzyG0OnAfNCfkmNeE/s1600-h/toothfairywater.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385413130421638290" style="FLOAT: right; MARGIN: 0px 0px 10px 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj-o9jqlSHjvFIs0TtcxlFbG4pMVtf4biLUYF__Sd5fnfy6tOysUQYUEptwyiu2fuvOCpbNK3mjFMbvjj8pUCxbezG5BdkwXoK6WC_MJVhdFGIrBAvihR3-VkwJJiYqzyG0OnAfNCfkmNeE/s320/toothfairywater.JPG" border="0" /></a> Kinsley, a precious girl in his class, told him that the tooth fairy will give you $10 for the first tooth. Okay, on the one hand, I feel forever indebted to Kinsley. Walker was thinking that his first tooth might be worth $100 in good condition. Are you kidding me? All of his teeth are in good condition - he's like a mini dentist! Back to my other hand on Kinsley....$10?! This is highway robbery. Well, $10 it was (what a generous fairy - more like a pushover, I should say.) And, as promised, that fairy dipped her wings in the water he left on the bedside table turning it the most magical shade of blue.<br /><br /><br />Since that time, we've lost another tooth. And yes, you guessed it...Kinsley strikes again! Surely we cannot keep up the pace at the new "after the first tooth" rate of $5. I believe I'm going to have to start sending Kinsley a bill!<br /><p align="center"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuSPd4g35t8q4qZz8gSGe1JdU3hoKfMO-h9cdfqAEvkLye969T-yhDYdDy8LAVaVNLbDxa7gHQ9gLns8lNWRbCgLW1KC6KVmNoh59MoVR_xySptphdJCwDYPvgIzUiaCmvGrj5OLO2AnZ1/s1600-h/toothfairy2.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5385413683436076322" style="WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 213px" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiuSPd4g35t8q4qZz8gSGe1JdU3hoKfMO-h9cdfqAEvkLye969T-yhDYdDy8LAVaVNLbDxa7gHQ9gLns8lNWRbCgLW1KC6KVmNoh59MoVR_xySptphdJCwDYPvgIzUiaCmvGrj5OLO2AnZ1/s320/toothfairy2.JPG" border="0" /></a></p><p align="center">Poor William. Can you tell he's been crying? He said it was the "unluckiest" day of his life. He is ready to lose a tooth now.

This is where you are paired up with another blogger and swap things based on a certain theme. <a href="http://www.sewcuteshop.typepad.com/">Brandy </a>was hosting the swap and organized all of the swap partners. Boy, did I get the great end of the stick! My swap partner was <a href="http://www.libertyoriginal.blogspot.com/">Liberty</a>. Liberty is quite a talented (and generous, I might add) woman with four children. How she finds the time to be creative is beyond me! Anyway, I was beside myself to find my swap package on my back doorstep. I wanted to give you all a peek into what was inside. Keep in mind that the theme of the swap was "green." Green could be either the color green or save the planet kind of green.

Honestly, we thought you'd never come. And while we're not due a visit quite yet, I just know you are right around the corner. Am I ready for a "snaggle tooth" little guy? The thought of it really brings me to tears, as we are rounding yet another corner in life and in growing up. I can tell you that he is ready, though. I begged him not to eat an apple at school today. I want to witness the first lost tooth - not his teacher before his mother! So, while he thinks that his first tooth should be worth $100, I simply don't agree. But please be generous to my little man when his time comes because he has waited ever so patiently. It stinks to be among the last in your class to lose a tooth, you know? We'll send up the flag when "it" happens, so get those wings ready. Oh...and we want your wings dipped in water to change the color and everything, okay? </div><div align="center"> </div><div align="center">Sincerely,</div><div align="center">Walker's Mommy </div>Lannae Johnsonhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/08213819035844208044noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5908756033210079560.post-40944764867672324862009-09-02T04:57:00.000-07:002009-09-02T05:04:55.638-07:00now that's a giveaway!<div align="center"><span style="color:#3333ff;"></span><span style="font-size:180%;color:#000000;">Remember me telling you about this a couple of days ago?</span></div><br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5376838276419051186" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi48cgpY_jPqm0meR2pT4jwFWbX4OM_XHIySOfTevTqtVNZWuiEtlwbeqN5xgw89_a_sv9tD2iW16h-W-zLCvbAOwqzSD2CYBf_e-QP9tVAPlqqE8lYFFg2_wTH1bCMNg3LQ7ix1ZpWVHJg/s320/birthday_weeknatalie.jpg" border="0" /><br /><div align="center"><span style="font-size:180%;color:#000000;">Well, you should see what </span><a href="http://www.shane-natalie.blogspot.com/"><span style="font-size:180%;color:#000000;">Natalie </span></a><span style="font-size:180%;color:#000000;">is giving away today!

We are in the process of planning our fourth show, and this year is going to be amazing! I have started a blog (yes, another one!) to keep those interested informed on the talent that will be joining us this year. I encourage you to follow this blog, as every several days I will be posting about a different artist. This year, the show is Saturday, November 14th. It is held at the historic courthouse in downtown Danielsville. We are only 20 minutes from Athens, GA, and it is well worth the drive! Just think...it could be your one-stop-shop for your holiday gift list. Can you imagine checking everyone off your list before the holiday rush even begins? You are guaranteed to find original work for everyone on your list. So, mark your calendar now!!! Oh, and did I tell you Brandy (<a href="http://www.sewcuteshop.etsy.com/">http://www.sewcuteshop.etsy.com/</a>) was coming?

So, of course, Monday was that day for us. Fortunately, there are great plumbers in our area. They came out when they said they would, and even on the same day I called. Rather than a leak in the pipes (which they could have fixed that day), it had to be a leak in the faucet itself. Thank goodness for friends in high places (you're the best, Teresa!) I called Teresa who picked out a faucet WITH me over the phone while both looking online, and she had it on a truck at her office by lunch the next day. I'm back in business as of yesterday afternoon (yep, that's my new faucet), and I even get my husband home today. Too bad he missed all of the excitement! And speaking of excitement...<br /><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5374249577608182770" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 213px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdy9foZENSNjPi5WTaBB1_tW2G9y-teupbiJfO-appIcwjo7MQvPqNOxMVEWZ_6X7APWErcbwE25JmZYR2AsJVQzcGPiwYLZpKXrBwj5whkPGLUrtUAfQ0xMixw_mBOD7w7W07hAB6cLjA/s320/DSC_0059_10.JPG" border="0" /><br /><p align="center">Meet Earl!
