THIRD ANNUAL AUTUMN SPLENDOR BLOG HOP OCTOBERTFEST 2014

This is the time of the year that I love living in the Desert (Lake Havasu City, AZ) as the extreme heat leaves and the days because beautiful and pleasant.  We have the most amazing Sunsets and Sunrises.  October seems to be one of the busiest months of the year for our little town.  Octoberfest, Pumkpin Patch, Boat and Jet Ski events, Run to the Sun (the most beautiful Classic Cars), Halloween on Main Street and many more outdoor activities.

So perfect timing of Rita's Octoberfest!

So I had to make some October Jewelry:

Artisan Lampwork Bead Pumpkins by , Swarovski Crystals and Gold Plated Lever Back Earrings.  Isn't this color sooo soft and yummy!


Gemstone Acorns Earrings with Vintja Copper Pewter Bead Caps - 14mm Large Earth Toned Organic Agate Rondelles Gemstones - Matte Finish Acid Etched 


"Mr Skully"
Pewter Skull by Green Girl Studio a gift from Andrew Thornton.  Artisan Lampwork Beads by Mandrel 2 on Etsy, Brass Bead Cap, Swarovski Crystals, Czech Glass Fire Polished Crystals and soft Suede Leather from Nina's Designs


A pair of Crystal Skull Earrings


Fabulous Sunflowers from my Niece Rozzie's garden.  Such a different color!


And the most important and special event for this Fall 2014 was the birth of my Great Niece - REECE JEAN!!!  She was born in August and this is her 1st Octoberfest/Halloween.  She is just so precious!!!

Pumpkin Patch Time - My Niece Rozlynn and Great Niece Reece

One Cute Little Goblin!!!




 My HANDSOME "TANGO"  says bye for now!!!

HAPPY HALLOWEEN!


Thank you for stopping by!  I'll leave you with one of our gorgeous Sunsets by our local Photographer:

  1. I have to admit that this is the time of year that I regret not listening to my mother and moving closer to her in Arizona. It is definitely a creative time of the year for you and all of your designs are beautiful.

    And Tango is just a handsome young man. You only have one. Don't you know that Pinheads are like potato chips.
