Return from the past

The girls and I have returned from medieval times. We had a wonderful time, even if the thought of running into royalty made us somewhat more reclusive than normal. Castle Fever is an event sponsered by Silfren-Mere a Society for Creative Anachronism group. Much fighting and feasting occured. It was great practice in getting the booth set up and medievalish.

New places, new pieces

Hello, It's been so beautiful outside with flowers poking up through the ground, grass greening that it's been occasionally a struggle to stay inside and work. I have however found an answer to this dilemma..... work outside!!! Funny thing, I don't need my glasses when I work outside, must be something with the natural lighting.

5.7.9 was the first day this summer of Cannon Falls First Thursday event. The event is hosted by the city and many local and non-local vendors/crafters/food were there. The weather was absolutely beautiful and the attendance was great. I shared the booth with my friend and her candle creations. We both had a very enjoyable evening.

Picture is of "Capri Blue" a new necklace that I am absolutely in love with, I think it is the color blue in the Swarovski crystals I used, There are two different sets of earring to match.
