Farewell July as we end another wonderful Summer month of perfect weather and lots of outdoor activities. Time spent with family and friends enjoying good conversation, fun and food.
This is probably the last thing I made in July. My friend Cindy lost her cell phone and had to get a new one. She was sad because along with her phone she lost her charm I had made for her. So without hesitation I have made her a new one for her new phone. I know it isn't exactly like the previous one but I do think she will like this one even better.
This time I incorporated her favorite...a dragonfly bead. I still had to add a heart charm as that speaks to how dear she is. I shall give it to her this week when we see one another. As for July...I didn't experience Christmas in July like others celebrated with handmade gifts. I have been thinking ahead to gift making and am always preparing. Maybe I shall celebrate Christmas in August...we shall see.
Mr. C and I have been working in the yard...still cleaning up and repairing from last winter's devastation and of course preparing for this upcoming winter. I shall take some photos and share with you our progress.
May each of you have a fantastic amazing August. I know I will...
I love cell phone charms! Unfortunately, my current phone has no place to attach a charm... such a shame!
ReplyDeleteHow sweet of you to send her a new charm!
ReplyDeleteGlad youve had a nice summer so far Sherry, and the work really never seems to end does it, just finsh up in time for another winter!

ReplyDeleteSweet charm.
Yes, indeedy. The year is moving along. I'm expecting great things of August!
ReplyDeleteSuch a good friend you are. I love the charm as I cherish dragonflies. Don't work to hard.
ReplyDeleteHappy August, you sweet girl, you! I am 13 days away from one of the most special moments in life, my daughter's wedding...ah August! July went way way way too fast, though. It's my favorite month and I am sad it's over already...though it was rather hot and humid this year! Ready or not, here's August! Enjoy! Kath
