I must be in a jewelry mood.

These jasper earrings show off a rainbow of lovely colors.

It’s still winter.

 

Snow bunny in the year of the rabbit! Did you know rabbits are clever and full of energy? They bring good chances for promotion, jobs and friends.

Peeking out.

I promise you, this painting is *much* prettier in person. The gold is brilliant, the red is shimmering, the white and black are matte. It is the year of the rabbit!

This is my current project. Obviously, not finished and not ironed but the quilt top is getting there.

This is why I live here.

You’ll never guess what happened over night… more snow!

Snow, snow, snow…

 

Apparently its too exciting for me to paint and watch Indiana Jones at the same time. I accidentally grabbed black instead of grey for details. Since I was committed to the black, I finished the painting with it but I don’t like it. *sigh* it was so soft and lovely before the harsh black. I may redo this one.

Just playing around with different washes and made a silhouette out of it. Happy FriYAY!

Sunrise and a sunset. It’s funny how quickly the landscape changes from mountains to flats around here.

I went on an eight mile walk about to find these falls today. While there my husband called to tell me mice traps apparently also work for squirrels. Consider this his memorial.

Had some Cricut fun making tags for a bird themed birthday scavenger hunt. There even was some snowshoeing involved during the actual scavenger hunt which was also fun. And of course we had to celebrate with some cake afterwards.

A little bit of blue skies!

 

It’s slowly dawning on me that blue may be one of my favorite colors. It used to be yellow and orange, but everything these last two years has been in the blue family.

Necklace and earrings, sea glass.

Snowy gardens.

 

I love these little square pink beads!

I finished up this series today. I also switched out the white binding on the first one I made for a black binding, which looks much better.

We are blessed to be in the migratory path for several swan species and even have a swan festival later in the year. And ducks, we have those too!
