Decided she had enough of the outdoor life and demanded to be carried. She may have a difficult adjustment when she gets bigger. Busy life here. Happy life here. Deciding whether to pick up updating my blog or sending everyone to my Beattie Chicks blog that is getting updated.

Weren't we just making our plans for summer adventures? Sleeping in and having late nights? These Monday morning routines are getting the best of me....early bed times, packing our bags and making lunches. Sometimes I just want it to be summer again. I love the pace of summer. Back to chore charts and point systems....away with the tearful mornings. Maybe I need to check out List Planit for a good list on getting back into the school routine.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-41677726947868139892010-09-15T20:37:00.001-04:002010-09-15T20:39:57.209-04:00Ellie the Elephant!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO00rKMcR7mCZ0yydptQHRl9GLIxz8l1Ric8UXRSyeUITJIlHl028d0VLe4Rg1Ank36IJBhR3Tx47u65THP3PoyrjtD8xvGFUVo946HkeAittsNWmNnN1hLc6XC5GNoS8B5jjG8qbxyplA/s1600/IMG_0241.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 300px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjO00rKMcR7mCZ0yydptQHRl9GLIxz8l1Ric8UXRSyeUITJIlHl028d0VLe4Rg1Ank36IJBhR3Tx47u65THP3PoyrjtD8xvGFUVo946HkeAittsNWmNnN1hLc6XC5GNoS8B5jjG8qbxyplA/s400/IMG_0241.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5517304416661631010" /></a><br /><br />I found the photo of the little girl and her much loved elephant.

I am busy filling an order for my new favorite store - Seaside Creations, right here in Harpswell. She started selling my softies the middle of July and has sold almost 30 of them. I am amazed! Love it! She has asked for 12 more and between sewing them and completing an order for one of my favorite little Junior Girl Timers - I have been busy. Little nervous about the fair on the 4th of September. I am also a little happy....it feels so great that people like what I create. Anyone that is heading out my way should head to Bailey Island and visit Seaside Creations. She is open Thurs. - Sunday and has the greatest mix of arts and crafts to sell. <br /><br />While I am sharing some of my happy feelings ....another great thing that happened to me at the Cumberland fair was meeting a family that does not live locally, but came to the fair in hopes to buy another of my softies. The Grammy had bought her Granddaughter one of my elephants and she loved it so much that she wanted another. She came with her mom and Grammy and had her elephant "Ellie" that she loved so much. I was so happy to see that she loved her Ellie - and that Ellie still looked so good. I took a photo...but I can't seem to find my iPhone - anyone seen it?Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-61541453863676248512010-08-16T19:54:00.003-04:002010-08-16T20:02:22.681-04:00Display!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3_0_7dGQ5qYTpNMakebuFmcxlJPm69D6W0OVOl-FwBdVAujLJ7vOfgLftCvohK3-v88BmcxcLW5GgTlE7pbawXXT2Dqm2503OUR8HKCtKu7fO3HTui0lIfsVh5rofgwj0x5EMi2aAzkJ1/s1600/IMG_0236.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi3_0_7dGQ5qYTpNMakebuFmcxlJPm69D6W0OVOl-FwBdVAujLJ7vOfgLftCvohK3-v88BmcxcLW5GgTlE7pbawXXT2Dqm2503OUR8HKCtKu7fO3HTui0lIfsVh5rofgwj0x5EMi2aAzkJ1/s400/IMG_0236.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5506160827439885746" /></a><br /><br />Thinking about our display for craft fairs and wanting to try something new. Leslie and I just participated in the Cumberland Craft Fair and it was amazing. I have never been apart of something so big and with so many vendors or shoppers. We had a wonderful time. We met so many amazing people. From Todd, our neighbor, to Lisa from down the way, we were blessed with many new friendships, advice and an amazing sense of something greater then we had known before. Selling so much product, translated into three sleepless nights. Worth it....but oh so sleepy still. We got a lot of ideas about our display, but am not sure when they will happen. <br /><br />Thanks friends for stopping in.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-64505020731638841522010-07-30T10:53:00.005-04:002010-07-30T11:02:27.263-04:00The Harpswell Festival<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB0VqN5Lx_dS0ZyGzXzYVJSYGn9b2LUBZmIkOKAXd534J01MzkyO8MiwhU6jyR2jHaevxPav9sV4bssxJa3jH3j3gcgN2YZ04YRj8O22nwu5SY5KFys9qnMlmsgUk3c1431cvT2AF25YQx/s1600/IMG_3982.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgB0VqN5Lx_dS0ZyGzXzYVJSYGn9b2LUBZmIkOKAXd534J01MzkyO8MiwhU6jyR2jHaevxPav9sV4bssxJa3jH3j3gcgN2YZ04YRj8O22nwu5SY5KFys9qnMlmsgUk3c1431cvT2AF25YQx/s400/IMG_3982.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499714771239091442" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK-8Y2U6ez9jfnNf3r3X0bLQVw-OhaQ_rtZjjp9gZ3FQL3fsWyg2huU0l890O0yhnK2w1Av2qPgWdR0mQ6QXOrZUEqJZ9sGizu56UTn7d5JIOUMYoK5spdb74777UZReOSjQbWR3ci9rFz/s1600/IMG_3985.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhK-8Y2U6ez9jfnNf3r3X0bLQVw-OhaQ_rtZjjp9gZ3FQL3fsWyg2huU0l890O0yhnK2w1Av2qPgWdR0mQ6QXOrZUEqJZ9sGizu56UTn7d5JIOUMYoK5spdb74777UZReOSjQbWR3ci9rFz/s400/IMG_3985.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499713373348854658" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQi6JeMxsUC9RectNl1idNvFYNu8dOPTFNZ1A0TkhEPBGwOPGIEJ7KLhlMtHfPHkAAK3W5-EPNF4sTmA-ReOQ9pkkVCte9v8piEOXF8Ghr5ZJ6ub_RUqS9FpkdBST4Ofsg4kVOk_Ity3D9/s1600/IMG_3978.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQi6JeMxsUC9RectNl1idNvFYNu8dOPTFNZ1A0TkhEPBGwOPGIEJ7KLhlMtHfPHkAAK3W5-EPNF4sTmA-ReOQ9pkkVCte9v8piEOXF8Ghr5ZJ6ub_RUqS9FpkdBST4Ofsg4kVOk_Ity3D9/s400/IMG_3978.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499713204010458450" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQWv4VStSH_9DPZmfhxmon9FQpWJDeDoSIgBmbOrOCkaiqiV_Y9_YhbM80jLBJ0N0KWSrE4N2Upo0nxPi60Bn25X_KyFFY451-tQH8chgrcZGlmG7B7NbnZc1n5jxTfN8fVhuKylCpk4vU/s1600/IMG_3984.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQWv4VStSH_9DPZmfhxmon9FQpWJDeDoSIgBmbOrOCkaiqiV_Y9_YhbM80jLBJ0N0KWSrE4N2Upo0nxPi60Bn25X_KyFFY451-tQH8chgrcZGlmG7B7NbnZc1n5jxTfN8fVhuKylCpk4vU/s400/IMG_3984.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5499712971805949010" /></a><br /><br /><br />The Girls (Super 6 and the Beattie Chicks) were asked to be in the Harpswell Festival, so we had to make a float.

The girls amazed me with the creations that they made. Their shadowboxes were fabulous. We gave them prompts and together they wrote a poem about girl time and the sea for the inside. They even came up with the idea of signing each others box. A great sense of togetherness was felt by all. <br /><br />Our castings with Plaster of Paris did not turn out as well as we would have liked. About half of them were successful. Everyone was great about this - and luckily we had many projects in the works that were loved by all. Looking forward to Sr. Girl Time in August. Definitely will change it up a bit, but will keep some of the same projects. <br /><br />Enjoyed a great show this past weekend at the Harpswell Festival. Saw so many people we knew and met many others. I just kept pinching myself to make sure it was real. I love where I live. I love what I do. And adore the people that are in my life.

Things got pretty busy with camp ending and participating in the Harpswell Festival this weekend. This photo is of one of the many amazing creations that came out of camp today. This lovely piece of driftwood became a parrot to this young lady. Can't you see it. <br /><br />We did a lot of walking today on this secret beach location. Didn't find what we thought we would, but found great things just as well. No false teeth were found, but the snail shells were abundant. Though we tried to get a better look at the snails inside the shells that were occupied, we had to use our imagination to create our own. The shells did well when they were baked - thank goodness.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-28784018728962665272010-07-20T21:51:00.003-04:002010-07-20T22:07:04.280-04:00Day 2<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR-t-yzyXbtkj3sBH6caTLLSZp-sSI5ab2rfamqMKdZfnjf3F93gy2jNf-x4r5PqGVwp6V13RVathKMJoNUj4NGWnwqkdrgIKDOu0C_C8IsDdbolo4IyPpOaJeHlR0MBVh8HNIZDxns6WR/s1600/IMG_3908.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhR-t-yzyXbtkj3sBH6caTLLSZp-sSI5ab2rfamqMKdZfnjf3F93gy2jNf-x4r5PqGVwp6V13RVathKMJoNUj4NGWnwqkdrgIKDOu0C_C8IsDdbolo4IyPpOaJeHlR0MBVh8HNIZDxns6WR/s320/IMG_3908.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496175147237749378" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEPe8VPjaIGEe3dsISUkyOyy44TeENFDpNoiWlN2Ea3m5_cF_S8Z_u-anmLmuadapv3EWFvULUKwtfTXo13aGvUAKr8XxXEP8TDcq7SVmEL5uA7BfPYmba1XtpMPouuLGl-s7FZ4l7bNVs/s1600/IMG_3915.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 214px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEPe8VPjaIGEe3dsISUkyOyy44TeENFDpNoiWlN2Ea3m5_cF_S8Z_u-anmLmuadapv3EWFvULUKwtfTXo13aGvUAKr8XxXEP8TDcq7SVmEL5uA7BfPYmba1XtpMPouuLGl-s7FZ4l7bNVs/s320/IMG_3915.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496172528483029586" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijx5HV-JjdXD0_kRtkXTfATS86kXaG6SvGKp6caHvWsKpm3rvFLdm5OHdZHHT13LgHmFqfLpLn3RjJw-R_TikK5ijXwXw8ifo6lA2uUlMF8hL965JADGY5wnj2miMm6mV-YDn3AO-SMgwA/s1600/IMG_3904.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEijx5HV-JjdXD0_kRtkXTfATS86kXaG6SvGKp6caHvWsKpm3rvFLdm5OHdZHHT13LgHmFqfLpLn3RjJw-R_TikK5ijXwXw8ifo6lA2uUlMF8hL965JADGY5wnj2miMm6mV-YDn3AO-SMgwA/s320/IMG_3904.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5496172518076626498" /></a><br /><br />Purple sea glass, driftwood, shards of potter and false teeth? Yes - leave it to our Girl Time girls to find false teeth amongst the treasures at the beach. And no, they were not pretend or a full set. Somehow they made it home to one of our girls homes, thankfully not mine. A fun time was had by all as we explored a different beach and found a different set of goodies. Opinions were mixed as to which location was more desirable. Driftwood signs were made when we returned. The girls each created a sign from their treasure and were excited to take them home to hang.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-5446132651705527612010-07-19T16:03:00.003-04:002010-07-19T16:18:48.186-04:00Girl Time Camp July 2010<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6JCLKlinc2_WLtuWci2Uc0t9TmRyUGRE7MaXB4t1mIJnV7ibvxUQ2xMGNsyHOD6aVxYU7vRkL2dyEeFoeJx-ZqLo072n_UPiNnVMOozJ4JKVzjYV0hIKo2DeHPP1f0Eot7fCDTvCMfzkM/s1600/IMG_3802.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg6JCLKlinc2_WLtuWci2Uc0t9TmRyUGRE7MaXB4t1mIJnV7ibvxUQ2xMGNsyHOD6aVxYU7vRkL2dyEeFoeJx-ZqLo072n_UPiNnVMOozJ4JKVzjYV0hIKo2DeHPP1f0Eot7fCDTvCMfzkM/s320/IMG_3802.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5495712373085187586" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZoZ2HnYBnZEieNMAp3Mxm22rYuiPFtAOTZWmcMUNN7ln8_b7egopgnHiANOcKztV7vxZlSfjrCzP_4YAQbkdCWh1QNr5n2ZND70XIuSc-0GojEcs1bExzZ2yb-Ql1ZeNGzHt6lxdPVyKi/s1600/IMG_3865.JPG"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 320px; height: 214px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZoZ2HnYBnZEieNMAp3Mxm22rYuiPFtAOTZWmcMUNN7ln8_b7egopgnHiANOcKztV7vxZlSfjrCzP_4YAQbkdCWh1QNr5n2ZND70XIuSc-0GojEcs1bExzZ2yb-Ql1ZeNGzHt6lxdPVyKi/s320/IMG_3865.JPG" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5495712357430320274" /></a><br /><br />We started our week off on a good note. The girls were terrific. We had nine today and tomorrow we will have ten. Everyone was so kind and worked well together. We prepared our boards in the morning before we left and then went to our first secret location. The girls found such great treasures and were eager to return to make art with what they found. We made butterflies out of shell pairs and mounted them on scrap wood. <br /><br />Tomorrow we are off to another fun spot. Hope for no rain and good temperatures. <br /><br />Good news - The Beattie Chicks will have it's first art show at the Town office in Harpswell for the month of August. We will be showing only a few of mine and Leslie's art and will bring the girls and some adults work to share. There is an open house on the 9th from 6 to 7:30.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-51790623842057026242010-07-15T22:33:00.004-04:002010-07-15T22:41:46.201-04:00Close Up!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4F_r7E0L4lUbuob769xid1i2jqGWUcD4tWEmXag01U10XzPFRXVw2mwx-DqOwF0VqC9KKRMh6GT4BzodGOQtyseZQfs2KYn3T_Ed5Vww1wmVvfaifBq9-W_RgL8bA10kLkGRKQj3ndl8_/s1600/IMG_3178.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi4F_r7E0L4lUbuob769xid1i2jqGWUcD4tWEmXag01U10XzPFRXVw2mwx-DqOwF0VqC9KKRMh6GT4BzodGOQtyseZQfs2KYn3T_Ed5Vww1wmVvfaifBq9-W_RgL8bA10kLkGRKQj3ndl8_/s400/IMG_3178.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494328283266801250" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU5PrfOGkQUS5zpy2QCssPQZ6bZ11pt8FxUZFJL-UIygBr9I2r8GhU1cDQnhvSvIpaq3_7-drrFJIUoqOe13VzB6KebsqFTigohgZvLbA5HgRx_nGauXx4qpWM5Beoy3waBew9Xo_AFSgh/s1600/IMG_3180.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 266px; height: 400px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjU5PrfOGkQUS5zpy2QCssPQZ6bZ11pt8FxUZFJL-UIygBr9I2r8GhU1cDQnhvSvIpaq3_7-drrFJIUoqOe13VzB6KebsqFTigohgZvLbA5HgRx_nGauXx4qpWM5Beoy3waBew9Xo_AFSgh/s400/IMG_3180.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5494327446746285458" /></a><br /><br /><br />Here is a closer look at a few of the birds from our June Camp.

We enjoyed dinner at Gritty's and worked on our newsletter and schedule. We hope to have the new one out by next week. We are thrilled with the response we have been getting from other community members. It seems that our name is getting out and new classes are being scheduled. If you are looking for us in the more immediate....we will be at the Harpswell Festival on July 24th, Bar Harbor the weekend of July 31 and August 1st and then we have a show opening at the Harpswell Town office for the month of August. We are thrilled to show some of our wares but even happier to have the opportunity to show some of the Beattie Chicks work.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-26333519374552078942010-07-13T08:11:00.002-04:002010-07-13T08:17:30.177-04:00Cloth Floor Cloths!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxCtz3YONTdVlk6wsBZPQhJjyykzyqAGRqJFbasMBmdjTnJz7b_6Lg76L9l8z0NqNaWULfijdR_q5Ov3NVpJ7IIBBTtFsZ3EXWJ60Uku5W9oVT8sz_OYYFCLht_9lijj03m_vMQp4K_Iil/s1600/securedownload.jpeg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjxCtz3YONTdVlk6wsBZPQhJjyykzyqAGRqJFbasMBmdjTnJz7b_6Lg76L9l8z0NqNaWULfijdR_q5Ov3NVpJ7IIBBTtFsZ3EXWJ60Uku5W9oVT8sz_OYYFCLht_9lijj03m_vMQp4K_Iil/s400/securedownload.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5493362493830587746" /></a><br /><br /><br />I had a great time at Jodi's house last night. She and five of her friends over and had a private party at her house. Great food, fun friends and of course, hehe, a fun craft with the Beattie Chicks. I was worried that the craft was intensive, but they said it was well worth the effort. The results and the feelings that it gives you when "you" create something that you love is so great. Now to find more floor canvas for the party on Friday.

I am so proud of the person that she is, the person she is becoming. I just love her. She is in NC with her Grandmother right now and it is so strange to not have her here? It has been such a great time for her. And so good for her. Absence seems to have helped her realize that I'm not such an embarrassing mother after all. I think it helps that she is with my mother...who was far more embarrassing then I ever could be.

Making art with your kids is such a great thing to do. Finding the balance between "a little bit of me and a little bit of you." Met some really great moms and daughters.

Leslie and I have been very busy with private parties and Girl Time Camps. During our Senior and Junior Girl camps we made many great things, but these paper mache birds that we first saw on One Red Robins blog were a huge hit. I love birds so much and just loved everyone that was made. <br /><br />Don't miss out on our next Newsletter. We have a ton of great classes and events coming up. We showed our "makings" at the School Around Us Craft Fair over the 4th. It was a beautiful day and we did very well. I met some really great people - a few great customers from last year came back to see us and we met a woman from Australia that has presented us with a great opportunity for the future. Bart, the girls, and our families enjoyed the day at the beach and then we celebrated Emelia's 13th birthday and Bart's mothers as well. Eek! Can you believe my oldest is 13?Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-1331139941694494702010-06-27T09:12:00.003-04:002010-06-27T09:22:12.790-04:00Don't want to miss any!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJqyx2HqM5i7ER6_WUJC7-gkCZaiyCVfnUk0utID-Q5zCBaIscKlBvVXHooxl749aNPEQxshGfkfxSYl_fpeOnwYjjoNe3LIGmBrscLAvdDC2M2TPPnZAVdJC-i5HXuJhzvGvEDHUEBFo0/s1600/IMG_2980.jpg"><img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJqyx2HqM5i7ER6_WUJC7-gkCZaiyCVfnUk0utID-Q5zCBaIscKlBvVXHooxl749aNPEQxshGfkfxSYl_fpeOnwYjjoNe3LIGmBrscLAvdDC2M2TPPnZAVdJC-i5HXuJhzvGvEDHUEBFo0/s320/IMG_2980.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487442498060202290" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhckDj2Y37ma5HrWi-KeT6lAiT4D-ibPUY8SH-Hhzn41B-ZAbKfdvrt_JX8htlF05ChlOJ6sSrjwADvfvpvGdwUwC0QEM3XmzU8smSK6O1JXdxz9LtpQT7_lE1AmDZbi1A_5e47vcfHwDiM/s1600/IMG_2983.jpg"><img style="float:left; margin:0 10px 10px 0;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 400px; height: 266px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhckDj2Y37ma5HrWi-KeT6lAiT4D-ibPUY8SH-Hhzn41B-ZAbKfdvrt_JX8htlF05ChlOJ6sSrjwADvfvpvGdwUwC0QEM3XmzU8smSK6O1JXdxz9LtpQT7_lE1AmDZbi1A_5e47vcfHwDiM/s400/IMG_2983.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5487441382407621314" /></a><br /><br />I wish I could upload all these great pics at once.

This is a pic of one the three projects we made during this Wednesday night class. Thanks to some of the participants, I now have identified my dream vacation spot. Of course, I can't remember the name of it...but I wrote it down. I do remember the awesome sea glass that she collected when she was lounging on the during her vacation. She was so great that she even shared a bunch with Leslie and me.

I enjoyed using some of the vintage quilt squares I found at Brimfield and with some changes and additions I made these pillows. Her friend loved them...can't wait to find more quilt squares. <br /><br />The Beattie Chicks just finished up two classes for Mom's and their kiddos to make Father's Day gifts. They turned out so great! We have to wait until next weekend to post more pics - so we don't ruin any surprises. Looking forward to a family day tomorrow.

I have been getting ready for our summer Girl Time art classes and my girls have been helping me gather extra supplies. During our full week classes the girls will be finding their own treasures as well as making great crafts with them. So why are we out searching????? It is like I tell my husband, "you can never have to much sea glass." And....I am having fun making examples with my own Beattie Chicks. <br /><br />This Friday and Saturday we are offering Father's Day crafting. An adult and their child or children can join us for either class to make an awesome Father's Day gift. We are excited that we will have a chance to work with some of our favorite little boys, since we have only ventured into classes for girls. We still have room, so feel free to check out our website and blog for more details - www.beattiechicks.com.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-11054213053643848632010-05-19T17:44:00.001-04:002010-05-19T18:38:02.361-04:00Nina's four!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOY0SojYy61ZRLc5egi36aPS6Fepk2gE-lYHYJsT_8xwyIRMU9duvZJA7WO-1sd3ftT6Cz328OUjA0zl-nPygDdnE9FhgAJY_YJpciPtGQ2o-cRKrpY2ysGVUS7lAMhTpWPmjtGgfK6XAX/s1600/868127861_dsc_4223-3.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjOY0SojYy61ZRLc5egi36aPS6Fepk2gE-lYHYJsT_8xwyIRMU9duvZJA7WO-1sd3ftT6Cz328OUjA0zl-nPygDdnE9FhgAJY_YJpciPtGQ2o-cRKrpY2ysGVUS7lAMhTpWPmjtGgfK6XAX/s320/868127861_dsc_4223-3.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5473101564110198834" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc1B5KKPmMFjADfx7Vasb8aQH176hSAtAv1KEc-q5Y9GPrp7rJCu9nEXde79uqrHr56KMS4AchrNkV_1JGTKE23NAHy4W3D__HQsA5CF7bGI8F4E7FXRmypKnQATYzYoM8Ve3u-qn_G8aO/s1600/868120610_dsc_4211.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhc1B5KKPmMFjADfx7Vasb8aQH176hSAtAv1KEc-q5Y9GPrp7rJCu9nEXde79uqrHr56KMS4AchrNkV_1JGTKE23NAHy4W3D__HQsA5CF7bGI8F4E7FXRmypKnQATYzYoM8Ve3u-qn_G8aO/s320/868120610_dsc_4211.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5473101553437326834" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQqJDsr59mYLOq9VMgtjDGeILoaZ2PeyZILpbpBl7BV9wD7nVZUPoJjer2qvcd34Uq_ib4M4uqqpBwhR-gXLgMH023lKpD1SabwyTNg3MIPLvHMJpLC-4MIfHsG3HEW2FyyVZlAyhSQsq7/s1600/868117938_dsc_4205.jpg"><img style="cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 213px; height: 320px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgQqJDsr59mYLOq9VMgtjDGeILoaZ2PeyZILpbpBl7BV9wD7nVZUPoJjer2qvcd34Uq_ib4M4uqqpBwhR-gXLgMH023lKpD1SabwyTNg3MIPLvHMJpLC-4MIfHsG3HEW2FyyVZlAyhSQsq7/s320/868117938_dsc_4205.jpg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5473101546657131586" /></a>Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1997166146870307965.post-61143483927565331732010-05-17T13:08:00.003-04:002010-05-17T13:19:14.090-04:00Brimfield!<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQZCcgiVZtyjpWBaUXECdpQQ2aVjYmsdmCFcsmieaAUXwJJr1uzjTNPOTvPhd4siMlAXXxM2BQyOsfUSqXJ2VdnXL9PXVb4dWUVQXLVXSiclb86pExR4LMECPqGYnkf8958eohG9hPZC-x/s1600/232323232%7Ffp9-7%3Evq=3239%3E;93%3E5;-%3EWSNRCG=337332%3C569338vq0mrj.jpeg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 72px; height: 96px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiQZCcgiVZtyjpWBaUXECdpQQ2aVjYmsdmCFcsmieaAUXwJJr1uzjTNPOTvPhd4siMlAXXxM2BQyOsfUSqXJ2VdnXL9PXVb4dWUVQXLVXSiclb86pExR4LMECPqGYnkf8958eohG9hPZC-x/s320/232323232%7Ffp9-7%3Evq=3239%3E;93%3E5;-%3EWSNRCG=337332%3C569338vq0mrj.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472288347481116082" /></a><br /><a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJTQVGqs3Cv3IEPVfCoMiw86YowjKG_7Jtj-SJSB2flTTcAIg7VJQkFwoOj4wWY7zkSyqMteDvl3qBDl9MdKGG5PjO0bkref92aCExbh1UA-5KgDUm3dnyaj5mHZxBkpYyd778dhMAnK0h/s1600/232323232%7Ffp-79%3Evq=3239%3E;93%3E5;-%3EWSNRCG=3373325-75338vq0mrj.jpeg"><img style="float:right; margin:0 0 10px 10px;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;width: 96px; height: 72px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiJTQVGqs3Cv3IEPVfCoMiw86YowjKG_7Jtj-SJSB2flTTcAIg7VJQkFwoOj4wWY7zkSyqMteDvl3qBDl9MdKGG5PjO0bkref92aCExbh1UA-5KgDUm3dnyaj5mHZxBkpYyd778dhMAnK0h/s320/232323232%7Ffp-79%3Evq=3239%3E;93%3E5;-%3EWSNRCG=3373325-75338vq0mrj.jpeg" border="0" alt=""id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5472288345773896290" /></a><br /><br />I enjoyed a wonderful trip to Brimfield, MA with my friend Catherine and her two friends, Karen and Kelly. They have all gone together in years past and I was able to work my way into an invitation. Yippeee! I had such a great time. The antiques and treasures were amazing....but experiencing them with experienced shoppers was even better. We went up the night before and went to the store Absolutely Everything and then out to dinner and overnight in a hotel. I am going to try to link to their sites so you can see their awesome pictures. Hmmm.

Many of them we knew from previous classes and friendships. It made the night extra special and fun. SInce I have moved to a neighboring town, I don't see many of them anymore. I had to stop myself from wanting to chit chat all night and keep to our task. Their finished projects were amazing. Thank you ladies for a great night.Hannah C Beattiehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/02150398203515887865noreply@blogger.com0
