Very Exited To be starting at Gallery 141 in Lancaster, PA


Hope everyone had a nice Thanksgiving Holiday.
Wow! I'm behind on Ebay listings! I have been working hard to set up at Gallery 141 in Lancaster, PA. I have a nice inventory of clay and jewelry there. Please be sure to stop in and see me; I'll be there on Wednesdays and for first Friday.

I'll be getting back into the groove of ebay listings now that the dust has settled from the gallery set-up.

What have I been working on? I have finally mastered a piece that has puzzled me for weeks. I have been studying Reiki & wanted to create a pendant of ' Cho Ku Rei,' the Reiki power symbol. I was seeking a sleek, sturdy piece that does NOT require solder or gluing. I wanted to create this from my heart and only with my hands... and it came together the other night! FINALLY! A simple symbol and concept in theory...but proved to be a little more complicated than I anticipated!

The final result is STUNNING-- whether you practice Reiki or not, it is a pretty pendant! I have created a few of them with and without stones... in copper, gold, and silver. I'll be sure to make a couple more and get them listed later this week! They require a light touch and and a dedicated mind...when the day is right I will make a few more.

Dachshund Dogs in Sweaters

Here's what Ollie & Sallie have to say about the cold weather! We had to break out the sweaters...they spent the morning shivering... now they're warm...but mad. When they go outside now, it's strictly business... no more fun in the sun for awhile.

Growing up in South Florida definitely spoiled them! They've been through a couple of winters, doesn't mean they like it.

MANY New Clay Faces, Chakra Jewelry on the WAY!

I've been busy creating & listing many new clay face cabs & beads! The new winged spirit goddesses are BEAUTIFUL! I saved a few for myself! The pieces with natural quartz crystals are my favorites. Love the quartz points...like a bouquet of icicles among her feathery wings-- very angelic.
I couldn't help it , I made a bunch of snowflake animal & face cabs...weather is getting colder... snowflakes on the brain!

I'll be listing chakra jewelry in the next few days...have a class tomorrow...so listings will be delayed a day or two! I have to put the finishing touches on the chakra wear before photographing & listing them!
