"She Was Such A Girl Scout"

Another new cuff to show off.  "She Was Such A Girl Scout", funny thing is: the whole time I was making the cuff, I thought the pin was a  Boy Scout pin, not a Girl Scout pin.  I guess I really do need those bifocal glasses after all.  The leather cuff is repurposed, pearls and crystal are woven throughout the cuff.  The flag is a vintage brass pin that was made by a Veteran and then sold on little cards, most likely made in the 70's.

As to my cuff, "Her Hands Were Tied"  My friend Gina:

Gina wrote: "I absolutely love her. FABULOUS! But I expect no less from anything you do. The note cards were a lovely surprise. Thank you! Now I have an excuse to buy a whole new outfit to go with my cuff."

Again, many thanks to Gina Marie who gave my cuff an excellent home!

My beautiful cuff "They Tied Her Hands" will most likely arrive at it's new home today.  A very dear friend, Gina Marie, bought her the very day I posted her on line.  I am so thrilled that she has found the perfect home. I had a great yoga class yesterday; as the student.  I always feel so great after class and yesterday was no exception, Lezlie's special touch was also very appreciated.   Delivered a ring to Ant Jenny this morning and Princess E chatted me up.  Nobody can wear pink like Princess E.  I left with a lovely bag of sweaters to felt, what a great morning!  Many days and much sweat and my closet has been ruthlessly purged.   Somehow, it still looks too full.  I am tackling the shoes today.  Yup, the shoes.  Too many twisted ankles and broken toes to wear many of them, so I am passing them on for someone else to love (we will see how I do with that).  Taking myself to the New Harmony Farmers Market this morning, a treat for almost having a clean house...my life is good.

Poor Neglected Blog

Good Morning to my patiently waiting blog spot..

I only have lame excuses for not writing, so I will just beg forgiveness and move on. I have been working and making jewelry. This week, I have had a welcome, natural break in the schedule; so I have been sorting the gifts of discarded items that my friends have bestowed to me.

I am truly blessed in that I think I will need additional storage to accommodate all of the lovely things I have acquired. So very cool.

Here is a little sample of the things I have been working on lately...
