It's May!




I cannot believe it's May already.The weather is getting warmer and everything is green. At this time of year of love doing my beading and wire wrapping outdoors. Working outdoors brings me so much inspiration, the birds, flowers, plants and insects can get your imagination going. The fresh air is good for us as well as some sunlight. And if you have small children to contend with, a trip to the park is just what is needed for them and you. My children are 12 & 7 and when at the park they can play for hours at a time while I am making jewelry. Spring and Summer bring so many colors out in natural and in jewelry as well. I try to incororate some of these colors found in nature in my designs. One of newest Tree of Life pendants was done in Garnet, Peridot and Oxidized Copper. Oxidized Copper is an affordable meadium that looks great anytime of the year. I use Copper in most of my designs. You can find an assortment of Copper and NuGold(brass)in both our shops on Etsy and Artfire.
