Sunday - but not a flea market post

"All the leaves are brown, and the sky is grey..."

 
Well, the leaves are not all brown, not really. But the weather has turned, it has been drizzling for 2 days and the temperatures dropped to around 8°C (around 46°F). Drab cold weather. I am glad we have the wood all stacked in the shed. The cats have all decided to turn into house cats again. There is something so cozy about seeing a cat curled up, happily asleep.

While it is Sunday, there were no really interesting flea markets taking place today, so I decided to stay home. Sorry - no flea market treasures today!

But I can share a couple of new pieces with you.
A necklace featuring one of Nan's (Spirit Rattles) beautiful ceramic hands. I combined it with bone, new jade, picasso jasper and a resin rose bead, all in muted shades of aged ivory to match the glaze of the hand. And, of course, a vintage mother of pearl button.




You might remember I brought home some moss samples a couple of weeks ago. Well, I was playing with resin and a couple of moss fronds found their way into some copper cups. Somehow, these make me think of mairedodd's inner sanctum.



Like a puddle of clear rain water in the woods, with submerged moss.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful Sunday!

more sari silk in resin

I made some earrings using sari silk in resin. I love the transparency - the colours are wonderful, when the light shines through!

Now I have a focal with sari silk in progress - hopefully I can show it tomorrow.
