Watermark Your Pictures, Before Someone "Grabs" Them

Today is Tuesday, July 7, 2009. It has been cloudy with rain on and off for the last couple of days here. Laundry day so going to take a chance that it will not rain for a few hours.

I have been working outside, when able and enjoying the pool. It was a wonderful weekend, relaxing and productive at the same time.

For anyone that sells on line and takes their own pictures, I would strongly suggest that you take the extra step to watermark all of your pictures. This picture, the one above was "grabbed" from my Bonanzle booth. Now this is NOT a picture that I am proud of, however it was the best of what I had taken.

I was so ticked off when I seen it. The nerve of someone to just take something that belonged to me without even the courtesy of asking. So I retook the picture and watermarked them. I will continue to watermark all of my pictures a few every day until they are all watermarked with my site address.

There are lots of free programs that you can download and use to watermark your pictures. I found a few of them and the easiest one for me was waterMark V2. This one you can not use a picture to watermark, just text, which works well for me.

Blessing Moon is today, take time to invest in your visions. Brightest Blessings!

A Very Squirrely Day

Today is Wednesday, June 10, 2009. It is going to be a hot one today supposed to be 94 degrees and 96 tomorrow. Oh, how I hope they are wrong! Hubby put this hibiscus tree still in the pot out by the bird/squirrel feeder. This little guy climbs up it to get himself a leaf. He would then sit in the pot and eat it like an ear of corn. Then back up for another one. I told hubby this and he just looked at me like I was a little....crazy? So when I seen he was going back up for another leaf I yelled at hubby to come have a look. Sure enough he did it again. Needless to say, he moved it to the front of the house. I have never seen a squirrel eat leaves before. Interesting....

Got a few things moving yesterday, fabric cut and ready to sew today. Looking forward to getting these altar kits finished up and listed. I do think that I am going to make a few of the listings just for the altar cloth and a few for the complete kit. Need to get the other totes listed on Bonanzle today too. Have learned to space my listings out, with the search showing newest first.

Going to try to get some more of the attributes done today also. What a pain in the neck these are to do. Although, Bing.com has been bringing me some traffic. Make sure you are listed with them! They just may over take Google, they are even doing television advertising. I think they are still in beta, however I could be wrong.

Hope to have pictures of finished projects tomorrow for you. At least that is my goal for today.
Have a happy, healthy, productive day! Brightest Blessings!

Another Rainy Day, That's OK

Today is Friday, June 5, 2009. Don't know what to think of this weather lately. Yesterday it was so so. Today started out beautiful, so I threw a load of laundry in the washer. Just as soon as the washer stopped, here come the rain and thunder. Those big drops with lots of noise. It hasn't seemed to bother the critters at all. I can't believe how fast everything is growing, the lawn will have to be mowed again this weekend. There is a saying that a well manicured lawn has no life, if that is the case, mine is just full of life. LOL

I am going to list my new totes today on my website BrightestBlessings and only do one a day in my Bonanzle Booth. Bonanzle search is by the newest, so, that means you have to delete listings and redo them to get a higher search. No sense in doing them all at one time.

Here is the tote that I said I would not have ever put these colors together, until this tote of course.

Front: Check out that Button Cover Miss Bettye made, it matches exactly! She has such a wonderful talent!

Back side of tote

The inside has 4 pockets. Check out the colors.

I so enjoy rag quilting. Ordered some fabric yesterday to make more altar clothes. Can't wait to get it. Have two quilts that I need to make one for my youngest and the other for a grandson. Hope that you have a happy, healthy productive day. BrightestBlessings!

A Designer Or Copy/Paste Cat?

Today is Thursday, June 4, 2009. It has been a rainy day here today. There have been storms on and off since Tuesday night. It has finally happened, my Miniature Japanese Magnolia tree has booth flowers and leaves both at the same time! Usually it has leaves and no flowers or flowers with no leaves. I am so proud of it!

I didn't get my totes listed yet, however I did get the pictures taken and measurements. That is over half the battle right there. I did get the attributes done in my Bonanzle booth listings today. If it isn't one thing it is another.

Had a friend visit me last night. Dang she was angry! When I found out why she was so angry, I was angry. Someone is now copying her work and selling it as their own. She is very good at what she does and works very hard at it. To have someone come along and copy it and I do mean copy it, and sell it as their own, well all I can say is EVERYTHING comes full circle! And to call yourself a designer? Copy and paste is not a designer, I think that is called plagiarism. When people decide to copy someone else, they should make sure that what they are copying isn't going to show up. By that I mean, we all have things that we add to make our work our own. It usually isn't something that is needed to make it work, it is just our way of knowing it is ours. Like the way an artist signs their art. I have things in each of my items that I know where they are located, no one else would, but I do. I also know that it is something that no one else is going to notice. My friend also has things in her work that isn't needed, however it makes it her work. So to YOU and YOU know who YOU are, you so owe her a heart felt apology. Then you need to make the folks that you sold to know that it isn't your work,your new design or your new layout, that it is stolen.

I will share with you the vintage napkin rag quilt tote that I made. "Something Old and Something New" I really like this one! It is a one of a kind, unless someone finds those vintage napkins to make another one. It is a smaller one and I really like that. When I had little kids I liked the larger totes or when we are going on a trip, but for everyday life I like the smaller ones.

"Something Old, Something New"
The outside is made of the two vintage napkins and the inside is made of new fabric.
Miss Bettye did a gorgeous job on matching the button to the fabric! She is just awesome!



This is the back.
The sides.
The inside has two pockets, large enough for your cell phone or keys or whatever.

I will share the other ones tomorrow with you. It is getting late here and still have a couple of things to finish up. BrightestBlessings!

Something Pretty's Bonanzle Booth Finished Product

Today is Friday, May 29, 2009. It looks to be another beautiful day. A rain shower came yesterday afternoon, so things here are still pretty wet.

I got this picture last night from Miss Bettye of SomethingPretty's Bonanzle booth. She has once again got the button cover finished. They are gorgeous! So with the cooperation of the Postal Service, I should be able to list four of the totes that I have finished on Monday. Truly if you need special button covers or buttons, mugs or pins, this lady is the first stop to make. Just send her a scan of fabric and she works her magic. Miss Bettye will keep you posted all the way through the process. If something happens, she is quick to let you know. I am thrilled with her work!

This afternoon I get to spend some time with my grand daughter. Her parents are working today and there will be an overlap of time. So, I get her for a few hours!

Have a happy, healthy, productive weekend! Sending lots of sunshine your way!
Brightest Blessings!

This weekend has been a productive weekend for me. Have three totes finished and waiting on buttons from Bettye. Her work is just awesome! After I get the button covers, I will post pictures of them.

A Productive Day For Projects

Today is Thursday, May 21, 2009. We are going on day four of rain here. By the time that it stops, it will be time to mow the yard again. The weather is still cool and breezy.

Yesterday was a productive day. Finished one project, all but finished another and started another. Should be able to finish up those two today. I had found two vintage blue and white
napkins, that were so pretty. So they are going to be a tote, "Something Old and Something New".

Then there is the purple tote that I will finish today. Different shades of purple and daisies too. It is going to be so summer. The other on that is just waiting on a button turned out so nice. The colors are just so hot.

Also spent a few hours with mom. I had purchased some "Goddess Garden Tea" blossom blooming tea balls. Mom loves her tea, however she had never had a blooming tea ball. She was thrilled with it. It was gorgeous ! I love seeing mom excited with "firsts".

If you have a chance, take a peek at this Bonanzle booth. Super customer service and wonderful products. You will get lost in her booth. She takes Google Checkout, Money Orders and PayPal for payment. Quick to ship also! A wonderful person!

Have a happy, healthy, productive day!

Bonanzle Booth Chores All But Done

Today is Wednesday, May 13, 2009. It is another hot day today, however there is a breeze so no a/c today! I noticed that the sparrows aren't coming around like they use to. There has been a Blue Jay that has been here. He stays only a few moments and then is gong. Have been trying to catch a picture of him for the longest.

Today I finally finished getting my Bonanzle booth cleaned up. WOW! What a job that was. I will never throw listings up again just to get them done. To much work redoing them. But, they are done now. YEAH!

Also got a few more listings up on my site. Have about 65 more to go before that job is finished. Then I will have to start retaking pictures to make them the way that I want them. It will be a never ending project. LOL

Going to finish dinner up and then go see mom. She called this morning, sounded just full of herself. I think she had to much coffee if there is such a thing. I can't say anything, I enjoy every minute that I am given with her. She is a hoot!

Tomorrow I will list a few more items on my site and get to work with that pink fabric that continues to call me. If you haven't checked out Sarah's Blog you should, the link is on the right. She has some wonderful talent and is really a super person.

Get outside and enjoy the weather. Go get into the dirt and have fun!
Brightet Blessings!

A Productive Mother's Day

Today is Monday, May 11, 2009. Yesterday was so hot! Today is supposed to be 88 which I can live with. We are looking at thunderstorms all week, which we really need the rain, however we we supposed to have them last week and nothing. We shall see.

Finished my grandbaby's pillow to match her Eeyore quilt yesterday. I was pleased with it, hope she is too. They are supposed to be coming to town this morning, so she will get it then. Got a phone call from my grandson yesterday. He said that he had "killed my birdhouse, it died." I was puzzled and my mind was racing trying to figure out just what he was talking about. How do you kill a birdhouse?

When he had made his wooden projects here over spring break, we put a birdhouse gourd in the planter. It was the gourd he was talking about, not the wooden birdhouse. LOL So he informed me that he would need to come over this weekend so that we could make another one. He promised that he would water it everyday and not kill it. Oh, to be five again.

Didn't get much done in the way of cleaning up my Bonanzle booth and listing on my site, however it was a productive day for my chores. Got my chores done, dinner in the oven and went to see my mom for a couple of hours.

There is a new Bonanzle booth PinkLadyBugsBoutique. She does wonderful work, just beautiful! Anyway I had bought this One of a kind Keepsake box for my mom for Mother's Day.
I was so impressed with it and it was shipped very quickly. Mom was thrilled with it and that isn't easy to do. She will be 75 in July and not to much impresses her. This seller is just awesome and a very pleasant person to talk with.

Time to get to work, hang laundry and finish cleaning up my Bonanzle booth and listing on my site. Get your chores done, get outside and enjoy the day.

Brightest Blessings Progress!

Today is Wednesday, May 6, 2009. The weather has been beautiful! Summer is here! This is a picture of the first bloom this year on my cactus. Has been a very busy week here, but a productive week. My website is all but done and I hope for it to go live today sometime.

I am excited about doing my own site. A lot of work, however I do think it is well worth it. Something that I should have done 9 months ago. Better late than never. LOL It will get easier the more that I work with it and see everything that it has to offer. I do have to that Sharon for all of her help! This whole thing wouldn't have came this far this fast without her! If you are needing web designs and banners be sure to check out her site.

Also finished up two Mid Summer Altar kits and got them listed too. They were fun to do, one is Sun Flowers and the other is daisies. Very summer!

Working on another tote that is going to be for the pink lovers. Also working on a couple of other projects too.

My new site Brightest Blessings and of course my Bonanzle Booth, BrightestBlessings. Have an awesome day! Get outside and enjoy the weather and get into the dirt.

My Rant For The Day

Today is Tuesday, April 21, 2009. Another beautiful day! This is a picture of the rose bush that mom gave me that was all but dead just before winter. The sprout with 3 buds is an off shoot of the main one. Even with the squirrels using it for a ladder to stare at me to bring them more groceries, it is thriving! Will take more pictures when then open. I am so amazed at this little guy!

Started the quilt for my grand daughter, mistake was working on it when she showed up. Not the way that I would have done it, however as my son let me to know, it is her quilt. She is two and knows what she wants. It should be interesting when it is finished. She just had a hay day in the fabric.

I do believe that I will be taking my business to a web site all of it's own. This has been a long time in coming and I really do believe it is time to move forward. I use to love Bonanzle, something to look forward to everyday. Not so much the case any more.

It seems that with growth comes change and change is good. The forums use to be a place to go to have a break and have some "fun". Now they seem to be almost toxic. Then of course you have a few that if they don't like what is said the thread winds up in drama or poofs. I will say that it was a terrific site when it was about 600 members.

The new home page is all the same color, no matter what items are featured. Paying a membership was supposed to have exposure to the front page. HA! Now it seems that if you have the word e-bay in your listing and less than three points on the "More Seller Details" page you will be on the home page. I have checked several of the lists and it seems that if you are a non supporting member your items will be there. A lot of them haven't even changed the generic avatar or logged in since they dumped their items on Bonanzle. It seems it is all about the "pretty" pictures. Sorry folks, I would think it had to do with who was buttering my bread.

Well enough about my rant this morning. Have a quilt to finish and laundry to hang. Have a wonderful day! Get out in the dirt today and have some fun! BrightestBlessings!

A Couple of Family Projects

Today is Sunday, April 19, 2009. A little on the over cast side, but that's ok. It's warm but not hot and humid. The birds are singing and the squirrels are playing. They really are awesome to watch. The little ones are funny to watch them box each other.

Today I am going to start a quilt for my grand daughter. She loves Eeyore so this is what she will have. Then to start the cameo one for my grandson. Have two other orders to finish up, but they are almost finished and today is Sunday, so I will work on family projects.

Found a really interesting blog, "Your Health", that you might want to check out. I ordered a ten week supply of this Essiac. It would figure that if something was this good that the medical community would not want you to use it or be able to purchase it. Go figure....

Colors for the coming week:

New Items In My Bonanzle Booth

Today is Friday, April 17, 2009. Another beautiful day! The sun is shining and a breeze. This is what happens when I didn't take the time to fill the feeder yesterday. He crawled up my rose bush and to the window he came. He will sit there and just stare at me, like hey we need groceries out here. So it was time to go feed the critters.

Today I am working on a new tote that I am excited about. The fabric is very unique in design. The colors aren't colors that I would have put together, however they look great. I am still trying to find angel fabric. Not having to much luck in that area. Of course, that would be what mom is wanting.....

If you haven't seen the You Tube of Susan Boyle, you really need to watch it. Make sure you have the box of tissues handy. She is a beautiful lady with enormous talent, that over came a fear that most of us would have silenced. She is an inspiration to all of us! I thank you Susan Boyle for the lesson that you taught so many in under 7 minutes! You will watch this more than once.......

Here are the newest additions:






All of the buttons are handmade by Bettye of SomethingPretty's Bonanzle booth. If you don't see what you are needing this lady will make it. You can even send her a picture of the fabric to match the color or design to. She has some amazing talent! They are button covers that just slide off before washing and drying.

Stop on over at my Bonanzle booth and check out the totes. The ST.Judes one can be found at this Bonanzle booth or will be shortly. It is for the charity auction in May. Stop on over and check out a few of the other new items I have added.

Brightest Blessings!

A Couple of Finished Projects For My Bonanzle Booth

Today is Thursday, April 16, 2009. Another beautiful day, the sun is shinning and there is a small breeze. Went back to the doctor on Monday only to leave with 4 more medications. If this doesn't work, (here we go again) you are going to need to go to an ENT doctor. You may have polyps and they will have to be removed. I don't think so. I will settle for what I have, one small tiny, very tiny slip and I will not a voice. Sorry doc, that is not an option. There is no second time around to fix that. I will be very happy with what I have and leave it at that.

The last couple of days have been productive. I finished up a "Blue Dragon" tote and the "ST. Judes" tote. Both are waiting for the buttons, which will be here today. I also finished up the "Butterfly" tote, which is so pretty. I will post the pictures and get them in my Bonanzle booth later this afternoon when the button covers get here.

Have started the putting together of the fabric for my next one and will work more on it tomorrow. Have another special tote to do and will tell you more about it tomorrow. This one is just as special as the ST. Judes one. It too is for a very worth while cause.

Have an awesome day and if you get a chance, stop over at my Bonanzle booth. BrightestBlessings!

As promised here at the pictures of the three totes, "Blue Dragon", "ST.Judes", and "Butterflies".

A Productive Weekend For My Bonanzle Booth

Today is Saturday, April 11, 2009. A cloudy and windy day here. A good day to continue on my projects for my Bonanzle booth.

This weekend I have completed the "Blue Dragon" tote and the St. Judes charity auction tote. Waiting on the buttons, which should be here on Monday. I will post pictures when they are completed. Also started the "Butterflies" tote which is going to be gorgeous when finished! The colors in this one are fabulous!

Most of the kids are off work tomorrow so it's going to be a Mexican dinner at moms house. So I have to quit working on my projects soon and do the chores and get to the store. This was a last minute dinner, awe gotta love it. It seems that the less planning that goes into something the better it really turns out. Family dinners have always been done at "moms" we have a great time and get lots of family memories out of it too.

I started doing the "LIMBO" last week and it has been fun. It runs from Wednesday to Saturday at 8 pm est. It is great to find some great deals. Click on the "LIMBO" and it will take you to the thread with all of the Bonanzle booth links that are also playing.

Have a productive weekend and enjoy your family!

Wooden Projects Found At Bonanzle Were A Hit This Weekend

Today is Monday, April 6, 2009. It has rained this morning and the wind is blowing. It didn't stop the birds or squirrels from their morning feeding.

I had my grandson (1 of 10) this weekend. Picked him up Friday night and have to return him tonight, by orders of his dad. I can live with that. Friday night we went out to dinner and then had to stop at the store for milk. Can NOT live without milk for cereal.

Saturday we dyed eggs. It was a beautiful day to work outside. We were no sooner done with the eggs and they were eaten. Then into the swimming pool. He also helped my to hang laundry. This is just to funny watching considering he can't reach the clothes line. He looked like a little jack rabbit.

Sunday we had another gorgeous day to work outside. We dug out the wooden projects that I had bought some time ago from a Bonanzle booth. The picture is of the bird house, a heart napkin holder and a little picket fence plant holder. With some luck they will dry out so that we can get them painted before I have to return him. He really enjoyed doing these. Even the older kids liked doing them!

Have started another dragon tote and hope to have it finished up this week. I guess that would all depend on the interruptions that happen. Still not much of a voice and after all of the hours spent at the doctors office and five different meds, people wonder why I have NO faith in doctors.

Really had fun with the LIMBO this week and will be doing it again next week.

Would Rather Shop At Bonanzle

Today is Sunday, April 5, 2009. The rain stopped and it was a beautiful day Friday. Living in a very small community, the shopping is very limited. Every once in a while I decide to drive the 50 miles each way to go shopping. This weekend hubby and I went "shopping" for fabric.

I knew in my mind what I wanted and just knew that if we got out of town to a city, I would find what I needed. You know when you know what you are looking for, you know what you want. Well, I was so disappointed. Wall after wall of fabric and nothing of the three fabrics did I find. Hundreds of fabrics in these three stores and no angels, no dragons and nothing for my special tote.

However, we did have a good time just the two of us, that never happens. We just made a day of it. After returning home, I went on the hunt for my fabric on Bonanzle. I should have known to chat with this one seller, which is one of my favorites. She has NEVER let me down.

Brenda's Fabric Goodies is such a super person and really works to make a deal happen! With the Bonanzle chat box I talked with her and got what I wanted. This is not the first time that I asked her for something and she said sure no problem!

I really want my tote for the charity auction to be so extra special. This is one of the fabrics that I ordered from her. This IS the fabric that I wanted.

Close

This is the one that is going to pull it all together. If you know what you are looking for and just can't seem to find it, I recommend going to see Brenda's Fabric Goodies Bonanzle booth. If you don't ask, the answer is no. I am now very excited and can't wait to get this one started. Thank you so much Brenda! You totally made my weekend!

The "Lady Bug" extra small tote is sold. So I really need to get busy. Have the grandbaby this weekend, we have been building bird houses and a napkin holder. Today we paint them. He wants to dye eggs. I so do hope not to have the dye spilled this year.

I listed over a hundred new items in my Bonanzle booth, BrightestBlessings, this week also. All of the jewelry and body jewelry that has been sitting in the spare room. I played the "LIMBO" game this week at Bonanzle and will play again next week. Come on over next Wednesday and play. The game runs from Wednesday to Saturday at 8 est. You can get some real good deals, which I was thrilled I won all of the offers I did!

Brightest Blessings!

A New Item For My Bonanzle Booth

Today is Wednesday, April 1, 2009. This is a picture of a Blue Jay and a Cardinal. The Blue Jay has only been here the last two days. It started pouring last night about 8 and hasn't stopped yet. The thunderstorms have finished for now. Made it through most of it with electric and internet connection.

I did get another project finished up and really thrilled with this one. I made it without a pattern, so it was a little more challenging. It also has a different style strap. It just says spring.

The "Lady Bug" is only about 7 inches wide, about 5 inches tall and about 2 1/2 inches deep. The strap has about a 14 inch drop. There are three small pockets on the inside which are just big enough for a cell phone, lipstick, or a package of gum. The button cover is a clay Lady Bug to match. The colors of pink, purple and green with the purple and pink Lady Bugs on yellow just scream spring. I also made a matching key holder to match. I will get this listed sometime today in my Bonanzle booth Brightest Blessings.

Seeing how the weather is very wet here and supposed to be until Friday, I am forced to stay inside. So I will move in a forward direction to finish getting the spare room cleaned out for my office/project room. This will be so nice to have finished, I would still rather be out playing in the dirt.

If it's not raining where you are at, get out there and plant something, play in the dirt and have fun!

Camo Tote Finished and Seeds Planted

Today is Sunday, March 29, 2009. It has rained a much needed rain here the last two days. My little dogwood tree is starting to get leaves and the big oak tree in the front yard, that two days ago had nothing but pollen, is now full of leaves. Got my sponges and gourds planted Friday, love to grow these. The earth is so fertile this time of year.

Finished up my daughters camo tote. I don't fully understand this trend of camo, however everyone seems to like it, even the females. There is even a pink camo design now.

Close up of Front

Back side

Started cutting the fabric last night for my next project, and I am really looking forward to this one. I have no pattern to make this so it should be fun. Trying to find some fabric with children on it for a tote that I am donating for the St.Judes charity auction, have a little time to find just the right fabrics. That one has to be extra special, it is for some really extra special people.

Sales have been slow this month. However on the up side, a friend of mine told me she had "checked out" my Bonanzle booth and I really need to let her have some items in her store on consignment. So next week I will be taking items there.

If sales are slow, how in the world could I be so far behind on speical orders? I have seven projects that need to get finished up and new ones started. This flu has really kicked me, never had one to do me this bad.

Color for this week are:
Monday - White
Tuesday - Gray
Wednesday - Brown All Fool's Day
Thursday - Green
Friday - White
Saturday - Indigo
Sunday - Orange

Have a wonderful day, get outside, get into the dirt and have some fun!

Thanks again Bettye of Bonanzle Booth SomethingPretty!

Today is Tuesday, March 24, 2009 and a cloudy day it is. That's ok we really need the rain. My little Maple tree is looking very well, would love to have some of that fresh rain water. I finally went to the doctor yesterday, a five hour deal! Only went to make mom happy, she will be 75 in July. AuctionWally was on it too. Killed two birds with one stone. Now on 5 different meds, 2 twice a day, 2 once a day and one at three times a day. No we couldn't be all the same.

So I am supposed to have my voice back in four or five days. You would think that they would all love mom not having a voice. Grand baby #10 has been born, another boy. I haven't seen him yet. I know, I am bad, but by the time you have ten, well there is just no sense of urgency.
Kind of like baby #1 has a completed baby book, baby #2 is half filled out and #3 doesn't even have a baby book.

I have finished up my other tote, "Dancers". I really enjoy making these. This one is also for a friend. Truly hope she enjoys it. Bettye from Bonanzle Booth SomethingPretty also made the button cover for this one. She does such beautiful work and so sweet. If you don't see what you need, just contact her. She had drawings for me the same day and was within the week that I had them in my hand.

Here are a few pictures of the finished product.

Colors for this week are:
Monday - Silver
Tuesday - White
Wednesday - Topaz
Thursday - Crimson
Frinday - Purple
Saturday Blue
Sunday - Gold

If you have a few minutes, stop on over to my Bonanzle booth BrightestBlessings. Have an awesome day!
