What I Made This Week

This is what I have been working on all this week. Ear Gauge Plugs. All organic made with fine dyed hemp. Some are all knotted , some have beads.

These remind me of yummy cupcakes even though I was thinking beachy the whole time.

In black with pearl

These are coned shaped. In violet hemp with turquoise round.

To get yours go to - The Hemp Butterfly

Happy Birthday Olive

Today our sweet Olive turns 1. I might say it has been a very , very interesting year. I have lost all my shoes. My furniture is a little chewed up at the edges. She will eat anything including plants, rocks , dirt ...there is no preference. She is a joy to have around and we can't imagine our lives without her.

HAPPY 1ST BDAY OLIVE!

The day we got her. 6 weeks old. Such amazing eyes.

@ 3 months.

Such a sleepy puppy at 6 months. She carried that bunny everywhere until it fell apart a few weeks ago.

Happy girl!

Cheese. Smile Olive! 10 months old

Gnawing happily on her gift.

Etsy Crush

As I'm browsing through my circles on Etsy I came across this shop. Oh my! So in love. I am doe eyed, little hearts. So of course I had to share!

Human Heart Ring

Poison Apple Ornament. I've always liked creepy art. I don't know what it is or what I like more. Skulls are right up on top of the list for sure.

Dia de los Muertos - Sugar Skull

Spring Lamb - The Sacrifice

I know the image is a little strong but I love. It is my favorite for sure. It's so cute yet so gory. There goes that floaty feeling again. Aside from all the incredible felting she also has art prints. Her name is Miyo Yamamoto and you can visit her shop here - The Grinning Cat

For Lisa

Recent custom order I did for a friend in Sweden. There is a whole different feeling and satisfaction when you make someone what they truly envisioned.

She was very happy with her order which she shared with her twin sister. They will be sending us photos soon. Will share in a special blog post about fan love.

Auras by Lorraine

Had a great experience today! I went to a class on how to read auras. It was amazing!! Te funny part was the hole time I was thinking about all the beautiful colors that surround them. I beleive that Hemp Butterfly also show these qualities... all those colors in union. Of course it's meaning is different to everyone. Let me know if you are interested in any of the details... The best part is that we ALWAYS use and don't really realize it! Each color represents a certain feeling/place. Jennifer's art is the same! ;)

Key Largo Weekend by Lorraine

It was such a beautiful day out in Key Largo! We decided to go snorkeling. At which I thought to myself, what a good time to pick up some shells for Jennifer for Hemp Butterfly ... then the jellyfish came. It was just like "Finding Nemo" the tide was coming... LOL we jumped out of that water pretty fast! :/ maybe next time.

Fun in the Sun by Lorraine

I'm so happy with all the pictures! Saturday tunred out to be great! I found a new partner in crime! Together we were able to show off all the beautiful jewelry that Jennifer has made... the sad part was we couldn't take them all home.

LOL

the colors, the different styles, the word amazing is not enough to describe it!

Behind the Lens

Yesterday, oh yesterday! I finally had the opportunity to photograph 2 of my beautiful friends for my Etsy shop. I was very afraid. I am by no means a photographer. I simply make knots. I have however always had a passion for the art of photography. So here you go dear readers....I know there are some out there and I'm sorry for all the long months of wait. But life sometimes simply gets in the way. I am back for good and with help.

Enjoy!...and please, feel free to comment. xoxo
