I would have SOOOOO bought that too! It made me laugh!

 

Gila might hang that.(LOL) The parrot would like it. Louise the Lemmeout would roundly ignore it since she can't eat it, sleep on it, or sharpen her claws on it. Or bat it under the fridge.

 

I have a spot for it in the parrots room!

Love that peacock! The furniture is gorgeous!

 

nice , Dick used to eat a lot of turtle pellets and i would sometime opt for some crickets for her from the pet store during winter, if they were a good size , i had her for about 2 years. after she died i kept her in the freezer in the fridge in a box as i knew a taxidermist . he told me what to do and how to preserve her in position . i went to get her a few years later (after bringing her out a few dozen times to show people lol ) and was going to use her in my book but she was gone someone might have buried her or maybe got thrown out idk so now i have a plastic one lol . she looked a lot like this one .

 

OMGoodness, I got up at 6 a.m. today and I put wet food out and dry food out for a few stray cats (they are pretty much our strays, but eat wherever there is food), so I look out an Mommy turtle had a face covered with wet food.

I photographed some stuff yesterday before my day got cray cray. Hope you guys don't mind, it relaxes me.....everything here except for the sterling lizards was a dollar... the brass Chinese lantern earrings have an artisan's? mark of AR 84. The blue necklace (anybody have a guess about what stone the beads are?) has GF findings. The blue rhinestone earrings are Swan logo Swarovski. The roses are Krementz, and the pendant in the center is Mexico sterling.

The church sale faux pearl earrings were 75 cents, the black onyx bracelet was, too, 14k findings, the single blue earring is GF blue zircon (couldn't find the mate in the other 100 boxes in the hot sun), the GF rose pin is ivory, zebras are Bob Mackie, the silver looking stuff is sterling, not the zebras, though. The swirl pearl pin tests as 10k (I dropped the acid right on the back twice for a bit, no damage, smoking) bu the pearl is faux.....pink ring 10k GF Carl Art.


These charms are missing a few blue rhinestones, they are HAR.

The card with the tents...where is that?

 

this one ?

 

too cute

 

My DS came home last week with a huge plastic bag stuffed full of all of this bubble wrap he picked up along the street & I spent about 25 minutes rolling it up.



I do not know exactly how much is there but it was clean, the size I needed the most & it was free - free - freeeeee!!!!!!!

Peggy

 

free is good, i picked up a big roll of the large bubble at a gs and i put it over my windows in winter (cut to fit ).

 

this one is signed Ray O' Neil

 

I'd say Peggy got the score of the week. Useful and free into the bargain.

 

Thanks!
