September beauty




While I was running errands today I stopped in to see my Father. He is a wonderful man and I love him dearly, but comments like this belong in another posting...for this is not the time to be mushy.


My parents both have green thumbs while I kill anything I touch, ok anything that I touch that isn't warm blooded. But as I drove to their home in the wilderness of Kentucky I realized all of the Autumn beauty surrounding me. Luckily my camera was by my side, so I was able to capture a hand full of amazing photos. They are simply too beautiful to hide away, so please enjoy the majesty I was lucky enough to observe.


I love the bright orange of this plant. It reminds me of a Fall sunset.




I was shocked that this little guy wasn't camera shy. Very pleased that he wasn't!
















The puddles on the Elephant Ear Plant were beautiful.

















Anyone else have Autumn photos to share?

My Artfire.com site

So It's been a long time since I've posted anything. After dealing with sickness and daily stress I've been busy working on my artfire.com account. It's sort of like etsy.com but it's free to sign up and sell. I've only managed to add 5 products thus far, but it's a start. :-)

http://www.artfire.com/users/mj_jewelry
is my site.

If you happen to check it out, let me know what you think.

Random inspiration

So I found random inspiration in a cup of coffee this morning. I took two photos and they turned out better than I imagined.





I've managed not to create jewelry today. I need to spend my day cleaning and preparing myself for tomorrow (I have white coat syndrome) so no new stuff today. Hopefully by tomorrow everything will be back to normal (as normal as it gets).

Creations.



So I have worked like a busy little bee today on new jewelry. I'm pleased with the outcome and really didn't want to stop...but figured since my fingers were hurting I'd better call it a night.




Tomorrow is another day I know. But once my mind starts to create it's almost impossible to shut it off. I guess I really shouldn't complain that my mind is creating wildly. For too many years it was idle.


This is one of my new favorites. It turned out well. The more I do, the more confident I am.


That's all for now.

With much love,
