I Love my Beads and Trinkets!



It's been SO dreary here today, not even able to see the first mountain ridge. Spent my time inside, and made a bracelet. All Swarovski Crystals - Antique Rose and Rosaline Gold. Gosh, great colors for spring. Made a clasp with Jewelers Golden wire. I'm pleased with this one!


Because of the way the Rosaline Gold Crystals are made, this bracelet can be reversible showing either the Rose or Gold colors in the center stones. A buy it now is included with this post. Satisfaction is always guaranteed.





Dogs, Home, & Life Imitating Art

I cannot imagine life without dogs. Evidently, Andrew Wyeth agreed. Does life imitate art? Does art imitate life?

The View From Here....

Evening.
After a harried day slaving over hot computers, I find myself drawn to the window. Some evenings the sunset combines the most unlikely colors and contrasts. Tonight was one of those nights. I gather in what is really important in life looking at the world from this perspective. I hear a train down the valley and planes landing several miles away. The bustle of the world is slowing with the coming night. A peaceful ending to each day looking over this view.

February Evaporated!!

Edit PostsI'm trying to continue with this creative streak. While I was surfing the other day I came across a processing center for Arizona Turquoise. The amazing variety of colors in this gemstone left me speechless ! So much for my thinking I knew anything about the Turquoise gemstone - it's not just blue any longer. Colors run the gamut from white (!!) through blue, green, yellow, browns - even purple. I'm learning. The more I discover in life, the more I realize how much more there is to learn and know. I suspect that this is a good thing - keeps life interesting.
