In Progress....

I am enjoying time getting to know my granddaughter, Summer Abigail - a.k.a. Abby!  What a beautiful gift, this lovely, warm, charming child.  She is such a wonderful addition to our family, now with THREE wonderful grandchildren!  We couldn't be luckier.  However, I still am enjoying some wirework inbetween bonding with Abby.  They are works in progress and once the finishing touches are done, I will repost them!  Have a wonderful weekend.  Spend time doing something you love with someone you love!

IT'S A GIRL!

My husband and I spent our day anxiously awaiting the news of the birth of our 3rd grandchild.  We have a baby girl!  Summer Abigail was born at 2:15 Pacific time, weighing in at 9 pounds and 20 1/2" long.   She has light brown curly hair, chubby cheeks, and can't wait for her first hug from grandma and grandpa!  Mommy, Daddy, and Abby are doing great!

BACK TO BEADING - A LOVELY BLUE JASPER!

My friend, Melissa gave me an awesome pendant with a redheaded woodpecker.  I decided to put it with some "lovely blue jasper" stones I had on hand.  I incorporated some red Swarovski crystal, silver moon/star beads and spacer beads, and finished it off with a sterling silver clasp and jump rings.  This is the end result!  Thank you, Melissa, for this lovely pendant.  I hope you like it! 

Peace Earrings and more...

I'm trying to catch up on loose ends - like finally putting my peace earrings on earwires!!!  I made some copper on brass and some brass on copper.  I think my personal preference is the copper on brass.   In addition, I had some crystal earrings I made some time ago that have been waiting for me to photograph and tag them for Artfire.   I hope to get them onto Artfire tonight or in the morning!
