T stands for Tuesday and Two Mandalas

Hello and Happy Tuesday!! Today we get to head over to Elizabeth's for some tea and catching up on what everyone's doing. Today I've got a few things to share with you, first up is this one and only odd sunflower that came late. We've never had one like this, if anyone has had one let me know. Seems it didn't grow and spread like the others do, just a cluster of sunflower blooms around the top. It only lasted about a week then wilted. We thought it was so cool and cute, I told you the garden has been crazy with odd sunflowers this summer. We can't wait to see what next years will turn out like.

Since it's technically still Monday here I am sharing not one but two Mandala's with you. I made this last week at my sister's house. I've been wanting to do this for weeks and finally did it. She has a cute little patio at her condo and planted some pretty flowers and a butterfly bush. I used her patio table as the background and some stones from my nieces that were already there. I had so much fun using colors and different plants/leaves to make this. It was a bit windy so we had to keep fixing it and didn't notice how dirty the table was till I uploaded picture, pretend it's nice and clean. She has pine trees so this fall I will make another visit to her place and see what other mandala I can make.

Here is another mandala I made a few hours later at my house. We have new PRETTY purple and yellow growing in the ditch now. I LOVE these colors together, have used them when crafting many times. The wind was stronger at my house and it was about 89 degrees by then, HOT so it was tricky putting this one together. It's my first tiny one which I just love, will have to do more of these.

 

Don't worry I didn't forget about T time and sharing a cup with you today, was saving it till the end. I was shopping on Saturday and something cute and FALL jumped into my cart. It's been sitting by my spot since then, I just love the color and size of it and predict drinking some warm cider from it soon.

see how PRETTY she is, a lovely shade of orange that fits in next with my flowers and fall picture. I get happy just seeing this little spot on the table each day, my own little piece of fall colors. They had some other colors that were just as pretty but this one jumped in the cart so I had to bring it home.

After a busy week of taking lots of pictures, uploading and posting them all week my sweet hubby made a yummy treat for me last night. Was the perfect ending to the week and I have plenty to share with you so help yourself. I am not a baker so I'm thankful he loves to bake and is good at it.

See how many cookies there is and my cute little cup wanted in the picture too

So remember to visit Elizabeth  and say hello to her and the others sharing there today.

 

I had a bad day today due to some issues ordering my pictures for my WITL album. Wasted several hours and wanted to throw this computer out the window many times. But a sweet and patient lady at the help number I called saved the day. I was so happy and thanked her at least 20x,  what a relieve to finally order my collages and get started on my album. Hope to share it later this week.

 

Have a Terrific Tuesday everyone!!!
