A very, merry Christmas to all!

I spent some time in the studio cleaning and organizing. Then I pulled out the last of the earrings I formed using a hydraulic press last summer. These will become a present for a special person this week.

Thanks to everyone who came to It's a Wonderful ... Shop yesterday.

Here are the ornaments made from tin cans and boxes on a small tree all ready for the holiday shop on Saturday. Did I tell you there are 5 other artisans showing their wonderful wares also?

Great cookies, candles, pottery, watercolors and note cards and all sorts of wonderful lavender products.

Tin Tree Ornaments! I made these especially for the It's a Wonderful...Shop. All they need is their little hangers and they will be finished. Now to work on some pies for Thanksgiving.

It's a Wonderful....Shop

On Dec 3rd I am getting together with other artisan friends and hosting a holiday shop. We all have been working quite hard on our art: a potter, a lavender farmer and potion maker, a watercolor painter, a baker, a candle maker and myself. I can't wait. There is so much great energy flowing!

The earrings are done and now I have moved on to making more tin bracelets. These are fun to make because I get to play with color. These need to be made into a 3D shape and then riveted together.
