It's the last day of July (how'd that happen so fast?) and we're participating in this month's BBArtisans team challenge in the nick of time! The challenge, from Linda at Pruitt Supply, is to create something with a vacation theme or write about a favorite vacation. Well, we don't go on vacations but I can create something to help Mommy remember one of her favorite vacations so that's what I did!
Last summer Mommy and Daddy went on a 10 day Alaskan cruise/tour which is something Mommy never thought she'd do since she gets motion sickness very easily. Anyway, thanks to meclizine, she was able to go and it ended up being one of the most memorable trips she and Daddy have ever been on with views and eagles everywhere...
One of the many things they did was pan for gold in Fairbanks and their huge gold find was put in a pendant. A really boring pendant. Ho hum...
So I had an idea to help her bling up her pendant so she'd actually wear it instead of keeping it in a drawer. I picked out a blue bead to symbolize the blue skies, ocean and glaciers they saw and it turned out like this...
It's certainly not boring anymore! Now she can wear it and remember the fun time they had on their cruise. I know, I'm so smart. What would she do without me?
Thanks for the challenge Linda! The pendant would still be in a drawer if it hadn't been for your challenge and my fabulous idea!
Do your beans have a favorite vacation?
Happy last day of July! Enjoy your weekend!
