For Kate

Kate is my dear goddaughter. She's a treasured part of our family, and she's one of the people I promised jewelry to before I injured my wrists. How wonderful it will be to send this to her tomorrow! (I'm doing the happy dance!)


Happy Father's Day to my DH~~see what I gave him?? He LOVES sock monkeys. It was fun to surprise him with this one. He's the best Dad, sweetest partner. I'm dang lucky.

Have a blessed Wednesday my friends~

For Monika

Monika owned a wonderful gallery in Sonoma. She sold more pieces of my jewelry than anyone simply because she believed in me! She told me over and over how fabulous my work was. She made me a better artist and continues to influence my belief in my abilities. This pendant is for her, to show her my love and encouragement. How wonderful that God brought her into my life! And I wish her the best future~~~

"Gratitude" ~~~I'm Feelin' It!

New bracelet for the Studio 41 Gallery at 700 First Street in Benicia, CA....Gratitude!
So grateful that I can make jewelry again.

So grateful I can work again (yes, honest! staying home when your wrists ache is not that fun) (working is better).

So grateful that I have my sweet hubby, great kids, good doggies, arrogant funny cats, so much. so much!

Today is my DH's beautiful daughter's 26th birthday. I hope she has a great year and realizes that 26 is soooo young.

Bless you all my friends. Must go dry my dripping hair and get ready for another work day tomorrow~
Peace.
