into the woods

i needed a getaway this weekend.

this semester i feel pulled in many directions.

- all i want to do is make art and be with the man i love -

nature has been a refuge. on days when i feel low. i head for the hills, lake, willow tree.

anywhere outside.

thank God this October we've been blessed with the most pleasant weather.

the smell of fall is something to look forward to

earth leaving us with a senses overload

before it hibernates

Patrick and I took a brilliant hike this weekend...

colors, sounds, and smells were incredible.

Patrick was a trooper. tiring of my taking his photo

(i can't help it... we only get to see each other on weekends during the school year. i need photos)

Happy Birthday to Canada!

Here's to you O' CANADA!

I'll be wearing my sweet little maple leaf necklace all day, and for the occasion have marked it do [today only] by more than 20%! This piece is on special sale for today only to get you in the spirit of our great neighbors to the North!

A little about the pendant, it's a handmade maple leaf, which captures a delightful sense of warmth, color, and beautiful glow of Autumn/Fall. I've done this in a special transparent enamel, allowing a subtle shimmer when the light reflects just right.

Enameling, put in its simplest terms is fusing of glass to metal at temperatures of around 1500 degrees F. The pendant measures just about .75" (shy of 2mm)and hangs from a 18" sparkling sterling silver chain.

Hope you enjoy the day!
Cheers
