Another 10 hour day here (I don't know where people find the time to write long blogs everyday :O) I got a good qty of hair forks polished, and then photos, editing, listing...mainly Bronze. I just Love

More production and back stock filling/refilling. Today is Bronze Charms. I don't cast the charms, but I like to offer them in the journal shop as an inexpensive way for people to personalize their journal,

It's been a little noisy here today, hammering charm holders... I was able to replenish my back stock though. I got alot done :) It does take a full long day's work to cut, bend, hammer and polish them

When I find lots of yarn on sale, I set them aside and when I have time they become whatever we need. Recently I found worsted cotton which is perfect for wash cloths...and a sweater tunic for our grand

I was so excited to receive the dyes that I had to mix them and start playing! The wool I will be using for the needle punch design has not come in yet, but as I plan to use these dyes for silks as well,

Pura Fe just shared this on fb, and they are some of my favorites so wanted to share here for those who may have never heard Ulali. This is from their first album, their voices sound so young :) Source

Just a little update...14 hours of hammering in the last 2 days...I have another weeks worth to go easily, but I can only do two days then have to pause so I don't flare up tendinitis... So all finished

This beautiful homespun yarn just arrived from @frugallady and it is gorgeous!! I will be using this yarn to make us new hats and things which we will need for next year. I am thinking the blue with some

After 8 months on Steemit, joining groups, leaving groups...meeting new friends, sorting through what I actually read and noticing others by name because they talk with me often on my posts, or theirs...

It's fascinating how one can be headed in one direction, then meet another, and just like in dreaming find themselves in a completely different place. Becoming aware suddenly that they are far away from

This is a happy and sad moment...as this is the last pair of fur lined slippers I will be making. I had them cut a while back, and decided to finish them this year. They go quickly though. After making
