Better late than never...

It has been a long time since I posted.  Moving to a new area threw me off my creative wave completely, but the inspiration is slowly coming back.  Creating is living well!!  I sent off a box of bracelets and necklaces to a artsy shop in Indiana this morning.  The line at the P.O. was unbelievable.  People are getting an early start with their Christmas shipping.  The line was reaching out the door and only two clerks working...

Some of the bracelets were simple beaded designs, but I also made this beaded necklace with a center bead that I found at JoAnn's of all places.  I love the colors...

What have you been making lately?  If you leave a comment I'll have a link to check out your site! 

Kuan Yin pendant...

I like to glue things to other things. Mostly I use paper, and this was no exception. I glued this picture of Kuan Yin to a chandelier crystal teardrop and flanked it with some blue/turquoise beads. I really like blues and turquoises--my fave colors! Anyway, I don't know where my creative muse has gone. She's been absent lately, and I'm only LOOKING at my studio rather than working IN IT. Maybe it just needs a major cleaning... Sigh. I'd like to get back into painting.

I always catch inspiration from Nature around me, but we've had some frosts and all the pretty greens are now brown. They'll come back, but I can't wait for spring to arrive and some HOT weather...

This necklace can be purchased in my shop on Artfire. Click on link on the sidebar.
