Weekend and New Work

It was a fabulous weekend!

I had a excellent show on Saturday! The arts festival coincided with the towns sidewalk sale, and perfect weather conditions had people out in droves. I even made a few purchases myself (which I'll share in my next post). It really was a wonderful day! Then more of the same on Sunday...wonderful weather, and spending time with the family. But working up to the weekend, I kept myself busy creating some new pieces.

Messages - Sterling Silver Metalwork Earrings

These earrings sold, of course, they were my new favorite, so I'm thinking something very similar may be in the works soon.

Arizona Desert - Sterling Silver, Turquoise & Lampwork Bracelet

I hope your weekend was just as wonderful!

An R&R Weekend

We enjoyed a fabulous, relaxing weekend in the hills of Pennsylvania. Surrounded by wildlife, wild berries, and peace and quiet.

Raspberries...Yum!

This week I'm hoping for some quality time in the studio. Keep your fingers crossed...

Have a great week!

Big Weekend

I live in a seasonal area...local businesses live for great weather throughout the summer and early fall. And the towns do a great job of trying to extend the season as much as possible by planning events that will draw a crowd. This weekend was just that...it was Bike Week in Ocean City, MD and we had fabulous weather!

Bike Week is always fun...you see all kinds of bikes and people...and they flock to this area in droves. I really noticed a lot of bikes in the area as early as Wednesday and by Saturday they were EVERYWHERE! There was the constant rumble anywhere you went and all night long. My husband and I use to ride and we really enjoyed it but that was pre-kid. Now we can only reminisce, possibly when they get older we will take it up again.

Wouldn't it figure that since we live at the beach that we don't go? I'm such a bad mom...we get so busy in the summer and the beach is always pushed to the back burner. Saturday was so nice though that we did go...it was so peaceful and relaxing...and not hot! We always try to go in the "off season" because it's not too crowded and the water is still warm. The kids loved it! My son was pounded by the waves, while my daughter stays closer to shore. And me...well I sat on the beach and watched them. So nice... My son was so exhausted by the time we left, it wasn't sure if he was going to be able to walk back to the car.

Sunday we all went kayaking together...this is something that we enjoy to do together as a family. It's a chance for us to get away from the phone, TV, and computer, get out and explore the waterway around us, see lots of wildlife and best of all exercise! So much fun!

Overall it was a great weekend...but I didn't get any projects started or finished...Yikes!
