Quote of the day

It's not so important where we stand,
but the direction in which we are moving.

Autumn/Fall reds

Item of the Day

Today's Item of the Day is a seasonal offering - "Fall Pumpkins" from the Sheriff's Daughter.



When I saw these sweet Czech glass pumpkin beads, I knew I had to have them. They're such fun.
Adding a Czech glass leaf, I hung them on a pair of large, antiqued brass hoops to make a cute pair of Autumn earrings. Enjoy!
(P.S. My "significant other" was cross when he saw I'd called them "Fall" pumpkins - they should, of course, be "Autumn" as we're in Europe.)

Item of the Day-Autumn Russet




I've seen some lovely crocheted bags and wanted to try one for myself.  I've lined the bag to give it more structure and strength and the colours are perfect for the autumn



 Can be held in the hand or over the shoulder. It has a circular bottom and a scalloped decorative finish around the top edge

Item of the day - Fire and ashes


"Fire and ashes" is what I called this necklace crocheted from red coated copper wire and hematite beads. The name suggested itself looking at the contrast between the bright red of the wire and the grey shimmer of the hematite.
The necklace is 40 cm long and thus lies close around your neck, but is no choker.
