Something to think about…and some cool earrings!

I‘ve had a few days off from work and saw something the other day I haven’t been able to get out of my mind. I was driving my truck (I work part time for a landscaper) back to the yard this past Friday and saw some commotion in the road ahead of me. There in the middle of this two lane busy road was a tiny Yorkshire Terrier running back and forth in the road!! Cringing because I figured at any moment that the poor thing would get squashed on this busy road, I was even more surprised at the number of people pulling over to try and save this wee beast. There had to be at least a dozen...

Spirit of the Oak

Nature’s beauty! I am really enjoying using gemstones for healing and well being with my leaf spirits lately, and although this could be worn as a pendant, I have transformed this lovely imprint of a Burr Oak, also called Mossycup Oak, as an ornament. Fashion forward fairies or renn folk could do double duty and use this as a focal pendant worthy of a goddess or fairy queen. Sculpted using a combination of translucent Kato and pearl clay, I’ve added a layer of antiquing to bring out the detail in the veins and to show depth as well. The hanger is multiple copper spirals accented with...

A Gift from a Dryad

Ever have a moment of drought in your creativity? A moment when no matter what you try to create falls flat? I admit to having plenty of those moments lately, and they usually happen when I stop listening to my muse and try to force a creative idea. On a walk in the woods near my home last week I happened on some beautiful pieces of “live wood” from a fallen pine, and popped them into my backpack along with an assorted sundry of treasure the forest offered up. Giving thanks for the gifts, I practically skipped home with excitement from the vibes I felt from my visit. Once home,...

A Day with the Girls!

The days are getting warmer and my Rhode Island Reds are very happy. The youngest are now starting to lay “practice” eggs which started out the size of grape tomatoes and have now progressed to very small eggs. Needless to say the “girls” are very proud of themselves and strut around the yard like they own the place! I heard someone say that Nature has a way of taking care of itself and watching my chickens gives me a true appreciation for them. In the past the only concern I had for chicken was if it was to be fried, broiled or baked. I look at these funny feathered...

Sylvan Sprite Earrings

Sylvan sprite’s will love to add these to their wardrobe this Spring! A recent foray into the forest produced some gorgeous imprints of Silver Maple leaves from which these luminous earrings were created. Hand sculpted leaves of Kato clay cured, hand buffed, antiqued, and accented with mica powders. The earring wires are fancy copper and the spiral attached to the leaves are accented with rainbow hued Tourmaline gemstones. These would make a wonderful gift for someone who loves Nature, Fantasy, or, for faeries and dryads looking to add to their Spring accessories!! Namaste! Earrings are...

Spring Fairy Necklace

I love pastel colors and the weighty feel of certain gemstones. So, while digging around in my box of goodies pulled out these amazing adventurine nuggets that I’ve been saving for a rainy day. On a recent trip to one of my favorite findings manufacturers, Wolfe E Myrow, I also grabbed some gorgeous fire polished Czech beads in a stunning Jonquil color. (some of which I will be adding to my Etsy shop) The necklace was created using sterling silver and alternating the stones to create a 16″ choker. I also added two more inches using Czech beads as an extender and finished with a...

You Wanna Piece of Me??

The Tufted Titmouse… known to cause humans to flee with one glance of it’s terrifying glare. Well…almost, lol. This picture of a tufted titmouse was taken at my parent’s home in Massachusetts this past fall. My dad, who loves all things Nature, takes some of the best pictures of these fine feathered denizens of the sky I’ve ever seen. Why? Well, mostly because he is able to capture a “look” that they always seem to have ready just for him. I couldn’t resist posting this picture he took and the look on the little bird’s face says it all… You...

Lovely Way to Start the Day!

What a lovely way to start the day than seeing one of my pieces featured on my friend, Silke Janas-Schloesser’s blog. Silke recently purchased one of my Nature Spirit pendants which was a real honor as I have been a fan of hers for a long time. For those of you unfamiliar with Silke, you must visit her sites to look at the gorgeous fantasy creatures she creates! Here are just a few of the many adorable faeries, trolls, and witches she has done: Thank you, Silke!

Vintage Hearts and Flowers

I’ve taken these awesome vintage Lucite heart and flower beads and up cycled them into a pair of gorgeous earrings. The beads are a soft frosted clear and will take on the color of whatever you are wearing. The ear wires and findings are sterling silver, and I’ve accented the earrings with Czech foiled clear beads to give them a bit of extra sparkle. A lovely gift for your sweetie this Valentine’s Day, they come in a lovely hand crafted gift box.
