Everything is coming up Flowers!

This is why I am dancing!

dang he's on to something... new and old all at once.

I am also dancing because a series I began last week has come to fruition and beautifully to boot:

the theme was earrings- asymmetrical pieces of the same stone - not butterfly-ed, just nearly similar pieces of some of my favorite rocks:

Pyrite in Quartz (droooool)

precious Arizona turquoise, nearly the last of my stash

Wild Horse Magnesite, like snow and earth...

I love the fact that you need to look twice before you can see the difference, but they're there, just like your fingerprints.

The carved blossoms are something I fear I may not find again:

perfect pink carved stone, petal soft and cool to the touch.

These three pairs of earrings will be in the Metal Shop in a little while,

full of love and beauty.

In the Leather Shop, flowers are the theme as well:

Tooled Classic Blossom pattern....

Rich colors, resist-peach, tawny caramel and chocolate edging.

Off to the sweets drawer for some dark chocolate while I list:

who knew leather could make me hungry?

Love,

Allison
