Get well soon, sweet computer

My poor comp is dead. :( At least for now. Zeb thinks it's the hard drive, which is what the guy said too when we brought it in to the shop. It's supposed to take three to five days to fix. Three to five days!? It's only been two days and I'm already going stir-crazy. Mostly because I've been adding more items to my shop and made two sales last week! Which was awesome! But then a day later my comp crashed. I was all excited and even more motivated after the sales, but now I can't list anything. :( I guess I'll just use my time to make more stuff and take more pics. So there it is.
I'm still reading all your guys' posts, I'm just not replying as often because it's a pain on my phone. So, at least I should have a bunch of new items and pictures by the time I get my poor computer back.
Here's to looking on the bright side!

Universe on your finger, Etsy finds

Hey guys. So I listed this ring today and just had to show it to you. It's made from a vintage cabochon. The cabochon is mesmerizing. It looks as if it's made of glass and inside it contains the universe. I really love it and am going to make myelf one.

Now, I love things that have to do with space, so I did a search. Here's some stellar finds from other Etsians.


Here is a flask from COGnitivecreations that features the Ursa Major constellation.

Nothing says it's Summer like...

a hotdog (turkeydog actually), macaroni salad and a cold glass of sweet tea! Yum! I know that it's technically not Summer yet, but when it's 100 degrees outside, it sure feels like it's Summer!

Back in apt, and henna update

So after it rained in my apartment, Zeb and I went to stay with my parents for a week. Now, I love my parents, but being back home with them made me realize just how much I love having my own space, my own kitchen, my own BED!! On one of the last nights there we had some yummy margaritas and lounged around outside under the almost full moon.

In the next pic you can see how my henna was doing. That was 12 days in and it had faded to a nice mellow orange. It seems like the lighter it got, the quicker it faded because it only lasted about 4 more days after this pic. I washed a ton of dishes after we got back to the apartment and did some good scrubbing and cleaning and it took the henna right off. Barely any was left after that.

But now we are home. The carpet still has to be cleaned so we can't move all of our stuff back into the bedroom yet, but it's still good to be home! I have taken my shop off of vacation mode and am going to be adding some more items soon.
