your aunts fanny and long and skinny necklaces

For our sweet and special teachers, I  ( and my daughter helped pick out the colors) made Long and Skinny necklaces for them. 

The bottom pic is blurry but you get the idea. On that note, I have had more conversations with friends lately about cameras and digital photos. While I appreciate the ability to see my photo instantly and can print it whenever I want, I have too many pics! And now that everyone is an expert photographer, it feels unacceptable to have blurry or dark photos because there is a tutorial everywhere out there in cyber world telling me how to do it properly. I get it. I want to see clean and crisp photos and when the light is just right.

However, I am not a photographer. Kudos to those who are. My giftings lie elsewhere.It would be nice if I was one. And to be honest, there is something refreshing about blurry photos, your aunts fanny front and center and fingers over the lens. Its home grown. I am not perfect so why would anything else be? Too much fuss- enjoy the beauty as the Lord freely gives it.

Baby Blanket

I made a darling baby blanket for a friend having a baby boy. While this doesn't scream baby blue boats or stripes, it is a happy marriage between mama's tastes and this precious baby boy. And lets face it, we like it!

New necklaces

These are new Long and Lean necklaces. The coral and brown I had to keep because I liked it so much. But the other two you can find at Chrysalis. Beauts!

Her Rings

We recently refound my grandmother's, THE Governor's Daughter, rings. They are way too small for me to wear but nonetheless, they are still so unique. Interesting how times change and styles as well.
