I am trying to get better at my blogging and I am always coming up with random ideas I am not always interested in perusing but think someone would. So I am going to try to start posting these and see what happens.
First thought is random we recently had a litter of 8 puppies and as they got older it seemed hard to find good puppy toys. I know there are lot of dog toys out there but didnt find really good toys for teething puppies. There mouths are smaller, have no teeth when born soft gum's, and most toys are made of hard material for dogs with teeth. We ended up using soft stuffed animals(they like the beanie animals), and as they grew we used the skinny rawhide. They really liked shoe laces. They could get to there back gum's where there teeth are growing. Okay so there you have it.

Findng Treasure

Hello and Welcome
I am a treasure hunter by necessity. What I mean is in this crazy world we live in we all have to find ways to live. I have been a stay home mom for years and now my 3 children are about grown. my youngest is 16 then 18 and 20. I will have 2 in college in the fall and it is time to reinvent my self . I love creating and crafting so I have been making jewelry and trying to sell it. I have been somewhat successful but find it hard to stand out from the crowd. So the opportunity came up to buy an estate lot of vintage jewelry so we did. All of 10,000 pcs, yes I said 10,000 plus pcs. I have been selling at flea markets and some dealer where ever I can and has been doing good. This is a slow way to earn a profit but then again I have nothing better to do. Ha! Ha! well anyway I recently did a show in a bigger city and discovered lots of people are interested in making there own jewelry to get a unique look. Long story short I decided to take apart old unwanted pcs of jewelry and save the componts to sell. I relize this is not new idea but what the heck. Soooo if you are looking for a unique item just let me know (example: I am looking for blue fish to finish a necklace) I will try to ist very unique items here and fill request. So dont be shy tell me what you need for your specia craft project. My brother is a auctioneer so if you ar looking for a special antique I may be able to help too. Thanks Maria
