Also I made one last change to my website.  It kinda got a little intense to see my face so I changed it.  No hard feelings internet.  Still it's good to make a quiet adjustment <3

New Things and New Brings

Hi, so much going on lately.  I am working on some new necklaces in the Apache Teardrop style and the Arrow.  So definitely more to come, plus hopefully some bright surprises.  Also, I thought it was time to update the ol' website...  Although it is still very much a work in progress for sure.  I did manage to switch out a few photos to that were more currently taken.
I'm still not totally 100%, but I feel good about the change, so that's what it is for now I 'spose.

* update:  i switched out the photo.  last adjustment :)

Take a look here.

Also, V-day was fun.  We had already been eating tons of cookies from C's grandma that we helped to frost.  And for V-day C surprised our home with this greenhouse shelving unit.  I know it's made o' plastic but I plan on taking great care of it and we are going to use the heck out of it.  Very excited to get going on the plants this season, window style or sunporch...  still haven't decided.  So much going on lately with C's work, tomorrow I'll be helping him with the chili-cookoff they participate annually.  Should be fun.  I hope your week is going well so far.

And oh my, did I watch this movie recently and got hit with a ton of bricks.  Something about this scene it flashes for a moment, and the quick shots of flower arrangements.  But this scene where they place the beads on the statue of the child being held by the mother.  It kinda slays me.  I want to make a shrine like this maybe, I have a small area going on already but this seems to call to me for some reason.  Oh well, we'll see.
