Changes!

Hello!

Well only 4 days later and I am back!

This past week has shown me changes in several ways.
As with the changing of the seasons there are changes in life as well.

The first happy change I can reveal now is that the gentleman who contacted me for a piece to propose with, came by today with his now finace'!

My last update was a sneak peek, remember?

It was very exciting to sneak him the box with her pretty in it and then I had to conceal my joy and wait to see if he would indeed propose to her here. He did!
As she and I visited, she is a sweetie, and we passed the time talking as the guys took care of their business and then "the opportunity".
DH needed a phone number and as we headed to the house to get he number.....they went out in my studio.
It was an perfect opportunity for him to have a private moment with her and he took it and as he put the anklet on her popped the question! She said YES!
So now I can say congratulations to them and we wish them every happiness and reveal her finished anklet!

Here is her finished anklet and you can click to get a larger image:





I will need to make a few changes to it and she also wanted a pair of earrings to match so I will be once again at the torch (yea!) and get her pieces done because all us girls know how fun it is to be able to wear our presents so I have to get them back to her ASAP!!

The other change is hurricane Dean approaching the gulfcoast.
Storms are a part of life for so many along the coast and a definite concern for all.
I will be watching where Dean goes and its always hard for me since there is no good place for me to wish it to, it will affect many no matter where it goes.

Please keep all who are in Dean's path in your thoughts and prayers.
I surely will as I continue to Look Up!
