Happy St. Patrick's Day

Well it has green in it! These beads, the stone ones, are from Africa John. You should check out his beads! The rest of the beads are some that I made out of pmc.

Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Views from my walks....

I have been trying to get a walk in everyday! Usually I drive to the park and walk there but lately I have been just walking around our home. These photos are from one of these walks. I also saw some eagles but couldn't get good photos of them. They would of just looked like black dots in the sky! I just take my little camera with me on these walks.

Thanks Kathy!

Well today is our 6th anniversary and our wonderful friend Kathy painted this great painting for us. It is called

"Two Alala in Love"

Thank you so much Kathy, we love it and can't wait to frame it and add it to our collection!

OH...... I almost forgot to thank you for the salted caramels! You truly are the best!

Sticks

Our anniversary gift to ourselves was this new mirror from STICKS! We also ordered a new coat rack that will arrive on Tuesday. I love their work! I am looking forward to adding new pieces to our new collection.

Towanda had to give it her approval!

Off Mandrel Feather

For my buddy!
She has been talking about glass feathers lately so I thought I would make her some! Only catch is she has to come here to get them!

Children's Festival!!

Today was all about the kids! It was The Children's Art Festival in Port Townsend. This event happens once a year. There are about 40 different art projects that the children can do, ranging from blacksmithing to face painting!

It is so much fun to go and look at all of the wonderful smiles! The kids leave there with so many things they made, it takes several trips to get everything back to their car.

Whit and I, along with my Dad and Sally volunteered at the bead stringing area. This is a huge event. So many artists and volunteers help to make this happen. Michael Barley is very involved with this project. He will be auctioning off a private class with myself and him soon on ebay. All of the proceeds will go to help the festival so that no child has to pay to attend. I will keep you updated on when the auction starts!
