ART WITHIN
Tonight I decided it just had to be, despite cookie dough awaiting, massive cleaning to do, and lots of wrapping. But tough! I HAD TO. Now I am happy, and hope I can budget more time to do this, because it really makes me feel good.
My apologies for that awful upper right corner glow. It is really a beautiful moth, but the paper is shiny, and the glare took over, so for that part you can pretend!
Thanks for stopping by...I always love and appreciate your comments.

STARDUST
The holiday preparations are coming on strong, and I am keeping a low profile! So much to do!! These are probably the last pieces I will list (I think!) until after Christmas, and these are very holiday inspired.
I made STARDUST using some gorgeous vintage buttons from my stash, Nunn Design goldtone twisted jumprings, smokey quartz, crystal rondelles, and czech fire polish glass.
SIMPLE PINE was made with some handformed sterling and goooorgeeeeous green faceted chalcedony briolettes!
Thanks for taking a look, and I always appreciate your kind comments.
I trust everyone is enjoying their holiday season also!

CENTERED
I am still creating when I thought I would be resting! You know how it is, you just can't stop when the ideas come faster than your hands can move. I always appreciate that feeling. So here is a new bracelet with Carolyn Saxby's luscious textural beads again, red creek jasper, and a beautiful labradorite and sterling clasp. I started out making this because I just love stones with their intricate colorations and veinings, and texture just plain makes me wild, so this to me is a perfect combination!
I thank everyone for visiting and your lovely comments. I hope everyone's holiday season so far is joyous!
