adding to my favorite room







I have added a few more things to my office/craft room. This room seems to be my favorite room of the house and I do spend alot of my free time here. I have added a few things to my desk/work space......... one of my favorite things is my pumpkin oil painting done by a good friend. There's also a sugar skull in there for remembrance of Day of the Dead celebration and a Kachina and feather. It has so many subjects that I love, it was a wonderful wedding present, so happy that it has a new place here in my favorite room!

wand and mini rattle







I made a co-ordinating meditation wand and mini rattle. Just finished the rattle tonight. I really enjoy beading, it is so relaxing and it centers me.

Luigi







Luigi is the newest member in my cozy house. He was dumped off at my parents home, left out in the cold to fend for himself. Mom started to feed him and we all fell in love with him. He is the biggest mush ever! He went to the vet's today and was given a clean bill of health. He will be neutered weds.

The Rock







I have had this rock just about my whole life. It has traveled with me to all of my homes. It IS my favorite rock. I remember finding it when I was about 4 or five years old on a walk with my Mom. She would always take me out and we would spend the day walking in the woods or fields around our home and I would always come home with handfuls of sticks, stones, acorns, feathers and other things. I haven't changed in 50 years!

Skeleton Keys







I have been collecting vintage skeleton keys lately. I have been fascinated with them since I was young. I actually remember the doors to our home locked with these. That was a long time ago! I've been making necklaces with these keys. This one has a little czech skull bead and a Green Girl Studios bezel that I have put some moss gathered from a forest in Oregon (my last vacation with Greg) and a pressed wildflower from Kansas and then filled it with resin................... also had to add a picture of Jake enjoying the Fall weather. (my little sweetie)
