Yellow Things You Will Learn Recycled Reclaimed Necklace


“There's times when you'll think that you mightn't, / There's times when you know that you might; / But the things you will learn from the Yellow and Brown, / They'll 'elp you a lot with the White!”



Rudyard Kipling quotes






------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------


I used vintage earrings, a vintage button, a vintage marble, a vintage dangler,some vintage beads,a new filigree and plastic flowers and a recycled chain to create this necklace.






It is 24" long and the pendant is 3" wide.






This is one of my latest listings on Etsy.  Yellow is one of my favorite colors!

A Discussion About Farts

Okay..first of all (not trying to offend anyone here)....but the topic of farting?
 And yes even ladies do tend to fart from time to time heh-heh.....
Today in a very busy store ..my tummy was rumbling....(I used to be able to )
"shoot out a few silence-ers"
(like a real NON-FARTING 
 re-fined lady would) LOL...
But I busted it out Today
 yes I did!
once I ripped it roared!
...and it was
like I opened up the doors
of the worst fart in history...
SERIOUSLY
I AM NOT TRYING TO KID
YOU HERE ONE BIT!...
I laughed sooo hard at myself for
actually doing this...
I almost peed my pants trying
to roll my basket into the other
lane and trying to blame it on my hubby!
Bring on the BEANO :)
Bring it on!!!!
Yes...
I am a lady...
And yes sometimes I produce some very very
serious flatulence...
You should have been on aisle 7 today
Actually.....~~~~
You are lucky you weren't..
LOL!




Bring on the beano! Bring it on!!!! LOL!!!!

COCKAMAMIE Weird word for the day

.COCKAMAMIE/ˈkɒkəˌmeɪmɪ/
Something ridiculous, incredible or implausible.
----------------------------------------------------
http://www.etsy.com/teams/7714/ideas/discuss/6810046/page/1/
The Etsy policy stating that "drug Paraphernalia" is not to be sold
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------
BUT----isn't it quite "Cockamamie" that we still find these today for sale on the site?


 
http://www.etsy.com/search/handmade?q=glass+pipe


2,002 results for glass pipe --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Yes indeed-eee it is quite cockamamie to me that so many are banned
but all of these 2,002 items that remain today could still  violate the quote......

"The Etsy policy stating that "drug Paraphernalia" is not to be sold "

Here are just a 2 pics of items on the first page I found for sale on Etsy right now....hmnnnn...do these look like they might be used for tobacco only?
COCKAMAMIE selectivity is all I can assume at this point?
 




Things that make you go wow!

Fly Fly My Sweet Butterfly






Fly fly my sweet butterfly

Spankyluvs her momma 2010
------------------------------------------------------------


I couldn't help but think of my dearest momma when I was creating this butterfly clip


She always had such a way of fluttering in at the right moment and sharing her unique wisdom and beauty.... oh how I will always miss her :)

 
I used a vintage butterfly brooch for the centerpiece of this floral clip


It is 5" diameter


and the alligator clip is 2" long

The Tailgaiting Woman

I wanted to share this joke I read today it made me smile :)
------------------------------------------------------

The light turned yellow, just in front of him. He did the right thing, stopping at the crosswalk, even though he could have beaten the red light by
accelerating through the intersection.
The tailgating woman was furious and honked her horn, screaming in
frustration, as she missed her chance to get through the intersection,
dropping her cell phone and makeup.
As she was still in mid-rant, she heard a tap on her window and looked up
into the face of a very serious police officer. The officer ordered her to exit her car with her hands up.
He took her to the police station where she was searched, fingerprinted,
photographed, and placed in a holding cell.
After a couple of hours, a policeman approached the cell and opened the door. She was escorted back to the booking desk where the arresting officer was waiting with her personal effects.
He said, ''I'm very sorry for this mistake. You see, I pulled up behind your
car while you were blowing your horn, flipping off the guy in front of you and cussing a blue streak at him. I noticed the 'What Would Jesus Do' bumper
sticker, the 'Choose Life' license plate holder, the 'Follow Me to
Sunday-School' bumper sticker, and the chrome-plated Christian fish emblem on the trunk, so naturally....I assumed you had stolen the car.''


Priceless.

Many Glass Pipe Sellers Still On Etsy??? But others banned...:(

Okay so I recently posted about glass pipe artists being banned from Etsy and wondering why? ( when so many other items are still allowed there.....)
Yes--- here indeed are only a few  items I found on the Etsy site TODAY  as a buyer and searched with this link...

http://www.etsy.com/category/glass/pipe

They say the reason for ban is it could be used illegally....
But yet here is just a sampling of the many items I found today in this category still being allowed on Etsy???----

I only ask...

why were other sellers banned when Etsy is still "allowing" the same type of "pipes" and pamphernalia for sale on the site?
And exactly who is passing judgement on all of this now?
Today for sale on Etsy-------






Things that really make you go "WOW" ???!!!!

My Dog Ate my Dad-Gum BeBe's

A couple of years ago I started needing bi-focals , so when I have my contacts in I still need reading glasses for the small stuff , and now it seems like I end up just wearing my glasses most of the time.


Night before last I must have knocked a pair of my glasses off of the night stand because when I woke up yesterday morning I couldn't find them. I asked my hubby to look for them while I was getting ready for work and he could not find them any where.

Suddenly I thought about Bill Dance and how much he likes to chew on plastic and I told Hubby to look in the closet. Sure enough one of my dad-gum dogs had demolished one of my pairs of glasses. I am not positive that Bill did it but I think he is the culprit. :)
 
Bill Dance Jr. is my big black fatty daddy in the front...Brownie boy is sniffin' the flowers in the pot and Molly Dollys' spotted rear is off to the top left :)

Dildos On Etsy--things that make you go WOW?!!!

Okay if someone wants to buy a dildo --
they can find it anywhere on the web....
I am really sad that Etsy recently chose to
censor other sellers and removed their listings
while still allowing DILDO's
to be sold on their site---
WTH????? WERE THEY THINKING?

You can easily find these on Etsy-----
they allow this type of stuff to be sold there
but ban "glass-pipe" artists???

I don't have a glass-pipe and never had
but then again---
I've never bought a DILDO on Etsy either
LOL!
However--the re-sellers and many items they allow to remain there
are in my opinion
WAAAAAY worse than the "glass artists" that they recently pulled the  rug out from under!
