Another great Auction find!

Well now that I've wowed you with the leg, how about I show you another great win at the Auction!

I had some fun playing around with photo editing on this one. 
She does have some weird eyes, but otherwise she's quite beautiful.

She's a wood carving and someone put some serious love in creating her...
 Maybe she's a he, I'm not sure.  But never-the-less...an angel!

I'd like to keep her but she's going to the shop.  I'll just leave her right here in the dining room for the time being.  She kinda likes watching over things.

Okay, that's it.  Let's get out there this week and make, create, sew, bake, knit, paint, photograph, write, repurpose......or whatever your heart's desire.  Just be sure that you share your love with the rest of us.

                                          ~~hugs~~
                                            Sissie

Oh Sissy, what a find! What a sweet angel and such a great one to watch over you! She/He can watch over you too, when you take her to the store! She may not be there long, so precious. Think she has light eyes!
Hugs,
Nancy

Your angel is really cute, Sissie. Actually the angels in the Bible are all male but we see female angels everywhere, from magazines and photos to decor, etc. I have a friend who insists that female angels are really fairies. It makes for some interesting conversation! Thanks for sharing and have a wonderful day.

Hugs,
Sandi

She's a beauty Sissie! You sure made that chair beautiful too. I don't think I'll ever like anything more that white with pink toile!

I definitely have that blog disease too. If you find a cure, would you send me a bottle of it???

I hope all is great with you now sweetie and that you are enjoying the weekend.
sending hugs...
