Hope your feeling wonderfully well again my dear friend. YOUR bottlecap art work is so creative, you're amazing artist. Glad to know your not sick anymore, Christmas is hard to get through when being sick. Usually I'm sick at Christmas but this year was great - I made it through without any problems and I was so thankful. My Christmas was super simple but very nice. Take care of yourself my artfriend, your so important to me and others.
HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

Hello Christina,

Hi Christina,
Your bottlecap charms are really fun. I love the bright colors. I've got to try and get to one of the First Monday events. I'm back to work on the 4th (after over 2 weeks off) so I know I'm going to be swamped....there's always February :-)

I wish I lived closer to you. I think these are super cool... and it turns out, I have a few bottle caps. My Iowa Hawkeyes play in the Orange Bowl tomorrow night... pretty sure I'll have even more caps. LOL
