Just wanted to share what I was up to this week! 

I'm going to away for a whole month. I will be spending the Holidays with my family and friends in Puerto Rico . Where I am from! There will be a series of postings dedicated to this Island of Enchantment.

This week...

I looked up at the sky.

I enjoyed the colors of my life.

I praised the Great Mother.

I stopped and smelled the flowers.

and I visited some gnomish friends.

I have gone back to my yard. The weather has been cold and not treated it nicely. The plants thirst for water while I sit in a corner afraid to water them for fear of torturing them any further.  I live in Miami. Yes, the one in Florida. And as much as I hate city life and the hecticness and plasticity that comes with it I also love that I can escape in my own back yard....

Custom Orders coming out the wazooo!

We have been blessed with lots of orders this past few weeks. 

For Carla's Mom in Iowa.

Necklace for Jodi of Beadworx in Arizona.

Armlet for Jodi of Beadworx in Airzona.

 Necklace for Carla a Teacher from Iowa.

Guitar Straps

They are not my particularly favorite thing to make but once they are done I feel very proud. They are a lot of work, a lot of knots and inches and I always add the tassel of overflowing beads. I only make them as custom orders since I do make them personalized for the wearer.
