You are in luck!

I know I'm late for last week, but guess what?  You will get 2 posts from me this week, aren't you lucky?

This past week TDH and I were busy planning for our weekend trip to celebrate our 39th wedding anniversary.  We went to Gulfport, MS and saw Joan Jett and the Blackhearts in concert.  Can that girl still rock or what?  It was a really intimate setting and she brought the house down.  I got a sore throat from singing (screaming) all the songs.  We came home Saturday (our actual anniversary) and went out to dinner.  By chance, we found a local restaurant, Cassis with the best waiter ever, EZ.  We sat outside and watched the parade of people, animals and cars go by.  It was wonderful.  We'll definitely go back there again.

I'm having trouble with uploading pictures again.  I'll post them when they upload.

I did get one in before the program decided to quit.  I had collected these shells on St Pete Beach one morning when TDH invited me to have breakfast on the beach.  It was a chilly morning (well, chilly for St Pete Beach) but sunny and gorgeous.  I think this necklace would look great on a dark pink shirt or with a bathing suit on the beach.

**Update Wednesday afternoon**  Finally got the rest of the pictures uploaded.

I made this necklace and earring set last week, I think they are just funky enough to be cute.  Maybe on a high neck dark shirt worn going out to dinner?
This next choker is 3 Danish knots but I think they look elegant.  I made the figure 8 chain connectors too.   




I keep trying all different ways to have a chakra necklace.  This one with the repeating 7s spoke to me.  You can rotate the beads on the wire if you need fiddly things.
This next one came after a friend explained her ritual knife.  I was in a shop and found this Lemurian Seed Crystal that had a serrated edge.  It felt just perfect for an Athame, so home it came.  After cleaning it, picking it up, putting it down, leaving it alone and then picking it up again for about a week, I started on the hilt. It's coiled wire with a loop at the end. A few days later, I made the scabbard.  It is woven wire of a lesser gauge. I'm really pleased with the result.  How do you like it?
I'm so glad I could finally share all the creations from last week.  Talk to you soon.
