New Jewelry


I got a couple of new art magazines the other day and that always inspires me to make something new. One was Quilting Arts, which is not anything like your grandmother's quilting. Every issue has amazing new techniques and pages of beautiful pieces made by their contributors. The other magazine was Step by Step Wire, which is about making wire jewelry. There was a beautiful bracelet on their gallery page by a women in Murfreesboro, TN, which inspired me to make my own similar bracelet. This photo is how it turned out. It took me about an hour and a half with materials that I had on hand. I think I'll make more of these.

Labor Day at the River


This is a collage of our weekend at the Tennessee River. The weather was cool and the river wasn't too crowded. It was good just to be together. I discovered a sign that read, "Tennessee River Art Village" I was totally intrigued but didn't have time to stop and check it out so when I got home I looked it up on the internet. This is what I found: Tennessee River Art Village
I am absolutely going to go there next time we are at the river.
Have a blessed day!
