Thank you girls so much! Sorry I haven't responded sooner, packing is taking all my time! LOL...

kbonsall

LOL... I love crime shows! I always think about how they could trace me with my needle felting wool, mohair and dog hair LMAO...  :crackup:  :crackup:

Sometimes when I watch them alone too late at night, I scare the jeepers out of myself!!!  bear_wacko

kbonsall

AWWW thanks girls...  :hug:  :hug:  :hug: I am giving my two weeks notice today at work (AHHHH!!!) LOL

Yep, Sarah, Cocoa is a place to live LOL, no, not everything is made out of chocolate LOL bear_original You made me smile with your Cocoa comment bear_original  :hug:  :hug:

kbonsall

I agree, you look beautiful - and glowing bear_original   :hug:  :hug:

About the crooked picture frame - isn't it funny the things you notice in a picture that you didn't notice before??  (I personally go nuts when things are crooked hanging on the wall LOL)

kbonsall

Well, probably within the next two weeks to a month bear_original depends on how things work out bear_original

I will be moving to Cocoa which is about 1/2 hr from Mickey Mouse bear_original

Why? BECAUSE I HATE SNOW!! LMAO...  bear_laugh  bear_laugh

Thank you girls for all the well wishes!! I truly apreciate them!!! bear_original

You can always buy pre-done wreaths and attach - I've done that or I've crafted one as well - I started with a base of floral wire and made a "wreath" shape and then attached the flowers (depends on what type of flowers you are using - ones that have wired stems are easiest bear_original

I have pretty much always sewn the wreath right to the bear's head bear_original

kbonsall

I know my news isn't nearly as big as Kim Whitlock's but here goes... In about 2 weeks or so, I am MOVING TO FLORIDA! This has been in the works for some time but just has finally pretty much been set in place....

Sorry I haven't been on TT much lately (I am dealing with a lot right now and haven't made any bears since my last one).... but you girls are always in my thoughts and if anyone ever needs to talk, I am only a PM or email away  ;)

Wish me luck on my new adventure!!!  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

kbonsall

OOOOOOOOOOOOOHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYYY GOOOOOOOOODNESSSSS!

I TOLD YOU IT WAS A BOY, GIRL! I TOLD YOU!!!!

SOOOO INCREDIBLY HAPPY FOR YOU!!!!!!!!!!!!  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

kbonsall

But if you do get negative feedback, you can RESPOND to the feedback so you can explain what happened. I know, I know, every time I sell something I worry about the possibility of negative feedback... you just never know who you are dealing with (honest or dishonest, friendly or not-so-friendly)....

Hopefully your buyer is ok but it is "strange" about the non-paying a month before...

Hopefully all turns out well for you and no negative feedback is received!  :hug:  :hug:  :hug: I highly doubt it since she is in the wrong bear_original

kbonsall

I would probably email her one more time telling her that you understand that circumstances arise and you haven't heard back from her and are considering selling to the second highest bidder. 

There is no reason to wait TWO WEEKS for pmt... I could see one, NOT TWO, especially because she isn't communicating with you.  Two weeks for pmt is really unreasonable, especially when you rely on that money to live and to pay your ebay listing fees LOL...

Maybe give her a call, depends on how comfortable you are with that.... or, if the other two options dont work, you can always file an unpaid claim against her... or if you dont' want "sour grapes", just sell to the second highest bidder... you will see in the bidding history it says "make second chance offer" or something like that... it will be sold for their highest bid....

It is completely understandable that someone comes on hard times and can't pay, and if that is the case, she should tell you...

Hope all turns out well!!!!!!

I DO have a shirt that would compliment it now that I think about it LOL... I do have a purse obsession (LOL - my hubby just loves it LOL)

I have teeny bags and HUGE bags and have pretty much one in every color.  I won't go anywhere without a purse (ya never know when you'll need dental floss or lip gloss! LOL)

Believe me, if I can't afford this so I will just keep the pic in my computer and maybe one day attempt to make a purse (ya never know! can never have too many project ideas!)

kbonsall

I'm good, Judi  :hug:   Been busy with yard work (BLEECH!) and being out in the sun bear_original

I love love love this purse... maybe I will win the lottery this week and I will post how this purse is now MINE LOL  yah right!  bear_laugh  bear_laugh  bear_laugh  (could you imagine spending that kind of money on a purse??? YIKES! it is purty though, huh?)

Julia - gorgeous guys?  c'mon, I'm happily married, I don't check out guys anymore bear_original I'm a good girl   bear_innocent

kbonsall

Oh, Kim, you are too funny!!!  :crackup:  :crackup:

I would never spend so much for a purse but the details on this and the colors and textures!! WOWEE!!! I could "try" to make a purse like that... hmmm... maybe that will be something I should try (I'll probably fail miserably!! LOL)... With how much that one is, its worth a shot to make my own! LOL

kbonsall

I was just browsing on ebay and found the most GORGEOUS purse!!!  bear_wub well, take a look...

http://cgi.ebay.com/FENDI-GRAY-TULLE-BE … dZViewItem

a WEEEE bit expensive!  Now, where did I put that checkbook? LMAO j/k  bear_laugh  bear_laugh

kbonsall

I apologize for not being able to comment individually (been really busy, I know, I know, "what an excuse" but its true!)

I just wanted to let you all know that I think you are all doing a wonderful job and your bears are AWESOME!!!  :clap:  :clap:

I'm so proud of my TT gals!!!  :hug:  :hug:  :hug:

kbonsall

WOW, DANNI!! The hard work paid off! You are absolutly glowing!!!  :hug:  :hug:

kbonsall

I'll join in... just let me know when and where and I'll create a little critter bear_original

P.S. - good idea!!  :hug:

kbonsall

Well, this situation has all been resolved.. apparently she has done this A LOT recently (and has only been an ebay member since March 23rd!) She has been booted from ebay MWUAAHHHAAAHHHAAAHHHAA (my evil laugh)... Now I just have to try to get my listing fees back... What the heck is wrong with people??? DEADBEATS! sheesh

kbonsall

LOL... she is a little booger! Yes, Judi, we don't have Max anymore (he is happily in a new home)... Just my little Daisy

kbonsall

HMMM...

1) don't think starting out that your bears will be perfect, it takes time
2) bear making is a lot of trial and error (at least it was for me!)
3) I can't live without my curved needles for sewing on ears!
4) learn to take good pics - I am still learning this one!
5) If your bears don't sell at first, don't give up--- yep stilll learning this one too!

kbonsall

I would say that I would only collect Pomeranians bear_original  Dunno why... or possibly Irish Setters - both of which I've had...

kbonsall

OOOOHHHH I am going to have to give these a try!!!! Thanks for the info!!!

kbonsall

She is my little sweetheart, who all of the sudden, has refused to go into her cage at night and now sleeps in bed with us LMAO... little stinker!!!  bear_laugh

kbonsall

LOL maybe a doggie jersey is what she needs (she prances around with her winter sweater on when it is cold LOL)... maybe I will have to scout ebay looking for one he he he  :crackup:

kbonsall

I have sent her about half a dozen emails asking her if she need more time, if she still intended to go on with the purchase, etc. and no response... Also, I am not one to jump the gun but there are about four other sellers who have posted negitive feedback within the last 2-3 days that she has not communicated with them or paid them...

Also, she has bought things AFTER she bought mine and other people's items and has paid for them...  :/

Here is the feedback for her since the 8th (when she won my auctions and bought things from my store)...
