I was inspired by the snowmen on the cover of Cloth Paper Scissors in the December 2009 issue but could not make them realized until my very best buddy in the world, June Daley sent me EVERYTHING i needed to make these gorgeous snow dolls!

my little Jack

It has been a long time since i had the chance to blog... but with good reason! My son, who is now 4 months old, is my new love!

Necklace with Pendant

My friends Bettina & Damien DAMBOURNET celebrated their First Wedding Anniversary - "Noces de Coton" and I brought them a bouquet of flowers with photos of their wedding day and made Bettina a pendant with one of the wedding photos and created the necklace to match!

Oh how I envy my little dog when its cold and snowing outside!! I just want to curl up and stay in bed too!

Ribbon Heart Pendants

I made the large Ribbon heart for fun in the spirit of St. Valentine's Day and then started thinking how cute they would be smaller as a pendant! What do you think?

Here are my first two attempts at jewelry making.. a necklace and bracelet. The necklace is a wire and bead technique I learned which I hope I can get a little more creative than just putting crystals together with a chain... even though this necklace does look really sweet with a t-shirt.. it's simple. I love the bracelet... it took a couple hours to make but love the finished product!

Orchids Blooming in February!

We thought our Orchid plant was dead when all the blooms fell off last fall. With continuous attention and watering it has exploded with 28 buds and so far 4 blooms! yeah!
