This Girl Beads: Forest.
http://thisgirlbeads.blogspot.com/2011/08/forest.html
Wednesday, August 10, 2011. I just came across this photo I took on a trail near the Indiana Dunes last summer. The forest was very quiet and slightly eerie. So serene and lovely. I want to go there! August 11, 2011 at 9:16 AM. I love it. It reminds me of a forest in Denmark that I use to wander. August 11, 2011 at 10:23 AM. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). It's all about the sparkle.

This Girl Beads: March 2011
http://thisgirlbeads.blogspot.com/2011_03_01_archive.html
Tuesday, March 29, 2011. This is the life. Friday, March 25, 2011. I found this silver heart on Etsy. I've seen other hearts like this on eBay and Etsy approximating them to be from the 1930s, but I am not sure if that is true or not. Now I just have to decide what to make with it. Monday, March 21, 2011. Here is another pair of earrings that my friend Lisa made for me (for my birthday last October). Thursday, March 17, 2011. And a gorgeous bracelet. Monday, March 14, 2011.

This Girl Beads: Mixed metals.
http://thisgirlbeads.blogspot.com/2011/07/mixed-metals.html
Thursday, July 21, 2011. Lately I have been drawn to gold and silver together, which is unusual for me! I decided I wanted a pair of silver and gold earrings with a delicate feel and a flower. I looked through my stash and came up with these. They go very will with my new necklace from Siren Jewels. Now all I need is a bracelet! Ah, these are marvellous! July 21, 2011 at 7:26 AM. I was very pleased with how they turned out. July 21, 2011 at 7:53 AM. Great phot too, it reminded me of origami cranes.

picking posies: November 2009
http://pickingposies.blogspot.com/2009_11_01_archive.html
Searching the growing rubble of mid-life for pretty little blossoms and pebbles. Wednesday, November 18, 2009. Okay, okay, enough brooding for now. Let me tell you some of the reasons why I love this time of year. A frosted apple, which will fall soon and feed the many deer that tramp through our yard. Grudgingly, we allow this. They are so beautiful, those deer. But they sure do make me grumpy come spring when they eat my tulips. The sugary frost on the berries makes them even prettier. They sparkle.

Searching the growing rubble of mid-life for pretty little blossoms and pebbles. Wednesday, October 21, 2009. At least that's what I hope it is. I've been trying to make changes to head off any more cancer cells gone awry. The book I mentioned a while back,. Speaking of terrain, I spend a fair amount of time in some that is pretty mucky and wet. So here in the Material Girl section of my blog, I must tell you about my new. Monday, October 5, 2009. Do I want the younger physical being that I no longer hav...
