Jewelry
The rings were added to a few of the pure silver pieces. The rings are sterling silver and adjustable. Super comfy- I have been loving these rings! And the small watch gear earrings are complete. Ear wires have been added and I have been wearing these all weekend and loving them! I'm quite pleased with these pieces.

These are projects made for the house and the kids.
•The owl was made for me as I have owl fetish issues.
•The mini lion belongs to Maggie. It's approximately 6" and has a little purple flower.
• The pony also belongs to Maggie. The kids went to animal camp last summer. Each week they "adopted" a different animal each week. So, I sent the animal that they had chosen to adopt for the week in their care packages. All of these were mini as well, measuring approximately 6"-10".
• The acorn is a little container. The lid of this container was the basis of the acorn hats.
Studio Cleanup!!!
I had a show the night before we headed to San Francisco and on to Australia. I got home late, had not packed anyone's bags, had a car full of show gear and an early morning flight. Oman was nice enough to take all my boxes of supplies and deliver them to the barn/studio. And because he was so nice, I told him to throw it in the door and not look back.
Since our return from Australia, the studio has been in shambles. Between all the boxes and miscellaneous being thrown in the door and having three months to forget about all of it, it has not been fun to recover. It has been total havoc trying to find bits and pieces frantically while trying to hit deadlines. I have wasted so much time hunting. So, in an effort to have a little freedom and gain some time, I cleaned the studio. I was not able to bring myself to vacuum the floor as it will be covered in new paper bits in no time (probably tomorrow). Now I have to start working on the common areas of the barn. There's is always an endless list when trying to keep things orderly. It's hard for me to work when I am surrounded by chaos. Today we are one step closer to cleanliness!
