After we saw these adorable snowmen on the cover of the November issue of Cloth Paper Scissors, Bailey and I started looking for little bottles. At first our bottles where too big, we only had enough beads to fill one bottle... S0 we made a trip to Value Village... (not like we needed a reason) we found little liquor bottles, Crown Royal, Gin & Wine. for .60 cents each, what a deal!! We used the top of the bottle for their hats...



We filled the bottles with pearls, glass glitter (Pam & Jason found it for me on their trip to Germany last Christmas) and silver beads (from broken jewelry). The heads are made of air dry clay, rolled in glitter flakes, we used stickers and left over Christmas tinsel.

Today is the last day of early voting in NC...I want to encourage all my friends to VOTE... not just vote but... vote for a change........ Our vote really matters this election... more that ever before. You don't have to agree with everything Barack Obama says, you don't have believe everything he says he will do, but you have to agree we need a change in the direction our country is headed... a change in our leadership... I hear it and feel it every where I go... we want out of this War, we want out troops home, we want our teachers paid higher wages, we want more manufacturing back in this country, we want to be able to afford health care. I want a person running my country who knows what it's like to be raised by a single mother, or grandmother, to know the sting of racial abuse, who had to work for a good education. I want that person in charge...He wants what I want.. a better life for our children and our grand children...I don't think Obama can fix much in 8 years... but all I'm hoping for is that he can start a positive change that will continue... If you think McCain is the answer... I will have to quote Dr.Phil "how has that been working for ya"!
