Friday afternoon Manny and I took a quick trip to Willow Grove so I could stock up on my driftwood supply. Sunny but pretty empty, which is my favorite kind of beach.
I'd been putting it off since I moved in but finally decided to clean up my flower bed on Saturday. It was full of weeds, grass and strawberry plants that needed to vacate.

So much better! Once we cover it with bark dust or something similar it's going to be perfect!
Later on went to a birthday party and housewarming BBQ. Friends of mine just purchased a home which turns out to be right next door to a house my dad previously owned. Gorgeous location and right by Coal Creek.
Today was filled with additional productive tasks. Labeled the spices and moved them to an empty drawer so they would be easier to locate and not take up so much space in the cupboard. Next, tackled my room. Went through my dresser and closet and cleaned out all the clothes I don't wear. Wound up with five bags of jeans, sweaters, dresses, tee shirts and more which I gave away to Candy. Finished up the bedroom by making the bed with clean sheets so that project was done. Jordan and Candy actually stopped by so those five bags didn't hang around the room for long.
On to crafting! Had started two different driftwood projects - a driftwood boat and a driftwood swing along with a figure to go with it.
Finished the boat fairly quickly then moved on to the swing. Revised it some then moved on to the figure. Candy gave me a bag of scarves so dug through and located a perfect one to use as the figures dress. Tacked on the dress, glued hair, added glasses and crown and she was ready to swing!
My driftwood and figure art is beginning to overtake my office table! Need to investigate bazaars or rent a space to sell some of them.
Painted my fingernails Friday and finished up the weekend by painting my toenails tonight
Here's to having a great week ahead!!
