Mom arrived Tuesday afternoon and is here for 2 weeks. I am so excited that she is here. It's been dreary weather up in the Frozen North and she needs the sun, so down she came to our Tropical Climes. Yahoo! 2 weeks is way too short but I'll take what I can get. Wednesday was kind of a relax day and my daughter, Bean and Bubba (alias The Duke) came for dinner. Thursday, Mom and I spent the day with the Bean and Bubba, out to breakfast and then visiting and helping my daughter with some things around the house. TDH and I went back to our daughter's to watch the kids as they slept so she could go to the airport and pick up her husband from a business trip. Of course, with the weather, there were delays, but he arrived safely home and everyone is happy. Today, Daughter and I took Mom out for a personal shopping experience. Daughter made the appointment at Nordstrom's and we had a wonderful time. She tried on many clothes, but unfortunately, couldn't find any that tickled her fancy. But afterwards, she wanted to shoe shop, and ended up buying a beautiful pair of Topsiders in gold. We are having company for dinner tomorrow and looking forward to seeing our niece and her fiance who arrive late tonight. After a week of rest, it's time for company and events to fill the calendar again!
I had a commission from a friend to make a cross for her to present to her teacher. I wasn't sure what style she'd like so I made 2. One is sort of traditional and the other is a bit more futuristic. Which one do you like?
I had started this cowrie shell a few weeks ago and finally finished it. I like it a lot but do feel on the next one, I'll weave a bit tighter between the coils.
I saw this goddess on Pinterest last week and had to make it. I think she turned out really nice but when my daughter saw it, she thought it was a dog's face. Oh well, what are you going to do?
This one is another one that I tried just to see if I could do it. Turns out that I could!
This next one is kind of hard to see, but it's a bracelet with just a bar between 2 end loops. It's really an elegant simple design and if a person wanted, they could add charms to the bars.
Well, that's it for this week. I kept myself busy and guess what? I have 2 other bracelets that I am working on and can't wait to share with you.
Be well and stay warm. See you next time.
