Leeni's Home & Spring is Coming


My beautiful little daughter who has been so sick and had ended up int he hospital hooked up to an IV, is home and on her way back to a full recovery!!  And boy is she full of energy!!!

Now that my Leeni is feeling better, I can get back on track with my jewelry and add a few new things to my shop.I have been getting a few more orders, which excites me greatly and encourages me to create more new designs. I am looking forward to  creating a spring line with bright colors, new patterns and cool unique beads! I love spring and hope my customers will too!

Any day your child is sick is a difficult day~

Leeni (Melina) woke up in the middle of the night with a fever and in the morning, Leeni was burning up wit ha high fever around 103. I waited til noon to see if it would go away, but sadly,I took her to the doctor.
As I drive her to the doctor, she sits quietly and no one talks as we drive the long two miles to the office. (Please remind me someday of how good it is to hear two five year old girls giggling and chatting way to loud in the backseat!)

We get to the docs office and we find that Leeni has a bad infection in her throat and ears that is causing the fever and vomiting~ We leave on the way to the store for some meds to cheer up a sick Leeni~

I pray that our little Leeni will wake up tomorrow her old self~ Pray for sick children everywhere~

On a much lighter note, I have been designing something special for a fellow "Estian"~ (Hi Reeze!) I have completed it and want to proudly show it off~ She liked it so much as well as the bracelet and earrings I made to match! I love the bright colors and the look of spring and summer~What fun it will be for her to wear it!!!

Today is about ... twins & Carnelian



My Greatest joy in my life has definitly been my kids. Even though being a mom, especially to twins has been the hardest thing that I have ever done, a day does not go by that they don't amaze and fill me with pride and happines.

Here is a picture of my twin daughters, Krisztina and Melina.They have just turned five and are now changing from toddlers to "grown up girls"~ They both love puppies, horses, playing with their babies and all that is a girl. But on the other hand, they love frogs, bugs, lizards and other creatures too.

They have a big brother too, who came to visit them for the past week and the girls totally love and adore him.

Today, I posted a beautiful Carnelian bead bracelet on my Etsy site. Carnelian is one of my favorite gemstones and the hues are of a orange to browns. Take a look for yourslef and let me know what you think.
