THIS WEEK'S OBSESSION

This week's obsession has been pearls, and more pearls, turquoise, and more turquoise! Both of these are available in the shop here now.
I hope whatever you are obsessing on is a good one! Thanks for visiting and as always your wonderful comments!

PEEK

As some of you know, Lenna and I have been working in our altered books for some time, and Lenna has been so gracious with her patience, since this time I have had my book for months. Health setbacks and various other life stuff have gotten in the way, but I hope with this new work I am back on track. These are some new pages I did in my book, and just sent off to her, and now I will get to work in her book soon....yaaaay, that is the best part!
The "Art happens" piece Lenna actually sent to me, and I loved it so much because of the friendship words, I had to use it in my spread, and it is by far my favorite, and a lovely reminder of my dear friend!
Today it is 90 degrees already, and I am heading out to do some errands, and hopefully some art or jewelry time later. Enjoy today friends, and thank you for visiting!!

CAPTURED SPIRIT

I can find no better way to relax and meditate on things important to me than to create a piece of jewelry using things that I love, and things that I want to share.

Hope you all had a wonderful holiday, and thank you so much for visiting !

I thought I would share some of my flowers with you while I had the opportunity, two days in a row of sunshine without rain! We are sun starved here, and I hope it is the beginning of a trend! My poppies are starting to bloom, the dahlias, the magnificent lupines, and finally a clematis bloom! I love color in the garden, and hoping it will inspire me a bit in the jewelry department....ummm, we'll see! Still love my neutrals!

Hope the sun is shining on you wherever you are! Thanks for looking and I welcome and appreciate your visits and comments!

FEMININE SKULL BRACELET

Feminine skull bracelet-available on etsy here

Don't you just love this skull's smiling face?!! My daughter Briana made this, and I just listed it on etsy for her. Bri lost her job about 6 weeks ago, and she is trying to find a creative outlet. I think she did a great job, and she describes this as "for the girly girl with an edge!"
Just had to share the cuteness!

Thanks for taking the time to look...I appreciate all your kindness always.
