New Artist

I took pictures of Dolores Schaefer's booth display.
She was next to my booth. She is a pastel artist. My
favorite is the Peacock. She is very new at displaying
her work at art fairs. If you like her work, email me.

Orange Grove Bracelet

The bracelet is not new. It is made out of coral,
freshwater pearls and glass beads. Last night I
embellished the bracelet with orange and white
flowers and green leaf glass beads. It looks so
much better than it did before. I changed the
name from Orange Flame to Orange Grove.

Two new necklaces

Here are two of my latest creations. I bought 2 new
cross pendants. My favorite is the Druzy Celtic Cross
pendant. The necklace is made with mother of pearl,
freshwater pearls, moonstone and bali beads. The
other micro stainless steel cross is very simple. I like
the curve on the corners.

Old Cadillac

Dean and I went to the Viola Cemetary. My nephew
Eric passed away on my dad's birthday. He was 25.
The hills of Viola were very beautiful. We found the
cadillac parked at a junkyard. We will miss Eric.

Lucite Flower Earrings

I haven't updated my blog for a while. I was very
busy making new jewelry designs. I had two July
shows and finished special orders. I watered my
vegetable garden almost every day and they are
doing very well. More tomatoes are growing. We
helped our daughter's moving. I bought new lucite
flower beads and I have designed lucite and glass
earrings to compliment my 4 flower necklaces.

Self-Portrait

This is my summer self-portrait featuring a
new hair style and a glass and plastic flower
necklace called " Summer Bloom."
