Schools out for Summer!

Madison is doing the happy dance, but Jordan on the other hand has Summer School. What am I going to do with that boy?! His teachers tell me he's a good kid, very polite, but he's just not into turning in his work. UGH! I can harp at him until I'm blue in the face. Been there. Done that. Doesn't work. He'll just have to learn on his own by going to Summer School.

I start my new job Monday. Got the call yesterday. Woo Hoo! Dental billing & collections Monday through Thursday 30 hours a week, part time. I have 17 years of medical experience but this is the first time I've worked in a dental office. So exciting!

Six auction sets are scheduled to begin at and after 2:00 PM, PDT. They're spaced out so they don't all end at the same time. So be sure to check them all out. And that will be all I have for awhile until I'm settled at work.

It's a beautiful, sunny Saturday!

Hello and happy Father's Day weekend, and what a beautiful one it is. Finally!
All we've had is rain, rain, rain so I'm thanking the sun gods today. Hopefully
it'll be this nice tomorrow because I booked an Erie Canal cruise for Dwayne for
Father's day. Madison learned about the Erie Canal in school this year and is
very excited about taking dad.

Have a super Saturday!

8 school days left

With a few days left in the school year my kiddies are busy wrapping things up. Jordan has finals and Regents and Madison is working on her NY State map made from salt dough. I remember Eric, my oldest son making a California one when he was about her age. He's 29 now. Wow! How time flies. My favorite project I made as a kid was a California Mission out of sugar cubes. Gosh, that was fun!

Have a terrific Tuesday!

Happy Friday!

I'm trying something new today on eBay, "Buy it Now" prices. I've never used that feature before and thought I'd give it a try. I like to buy things now without having to bid so why not sell some beads that way, too. Thanks for peeking! :)

There's a Make a Difference Rally at the school tonight, and Seymour's Wild Hogs BBQ is serving up dinner. Yippee! Now that's a very Happy Friday! :)))

Have a wonderful weekend!

What a beautiful day!


Blooming in my backyard are these lovely flowers that stand about waist high and are the most beautiful purply blue. This morning I made a set of beads in this color combo and can't wait to see how they turn out. They're cooling now. I will have them for sale tomorrow. :)

It's "Bikes at the Beach" tonight so we're headed to Sylvan Beach to check'em out!

Have a great day!

About Me

My photo
Clinton, New York, United States
Welcome to my blog page and thank you so much for stopping by! I'm Krissy Dery mother of three and lampwork artist. I was born and raised in Southern California but moved to Central New York May, 2010 with my loving husband. Creating beads allows me the incredible opportunity to be home with my children for which I'm truly grateful. My glass beads are made by me and me alone at my home studio in historic Clinton, NY. I pride my self on my attention to detail. I love making beads and hope you can see that in each and every bead I create. I use many types of glass: Effetre/Moretti, Lauscha, Vetrafond, Czech and Bullseye. Each and every bead is immediately placed into the kiln for annealing, soaking and gradual overnight cooling. This insures that my beads are not only beautiful, they are durable and will last a lifetime. Visit my site - http://krissybeads.com/ Follow me on facebook - https://www.facebook.com/KrissyBeads
