Fringing anemone technique tonight at Bead Haven! Here are beautiful bracelets in progress created by Alice(left) and Sue(right). When the bracelets are finished they will be full of mini-fringe. I can't wait to see them finished! As usual, great work ladies!

Valley Junction Art Market...

Here are a few pieces I recently made that will be headed with me to the 2010 Historic Valley Junction Spring Art Market. It is held this Sunday, May 16, 11-5 in West Des Moines. Come visit me if you are in the area. The below pieces are from my line of jewelry I call: Recycle, Reclaim, Repurpose...

Thunder, you're just too cute for words...

My "just born" pendants... My mind is "swirling" with ideas and what people might like - think I'll just create what I like, and hope for the best.
