It's Official!

That's right, it's official, Spring has sprung! This is a picture of a blossom on my crab apple tree. It's loaded with not only blossoms, but, bees! Dozens of them, busy working! The tree hums from their activity. Interesting to watch them go about their business. Such focus!

Ammolite and Walnut Pendant

I'm very excited to present an Ammolite pendant! Considered one of the most rare gemstones in the world, Ammolite is only found in gemstone quality in southern Alberta...not far from my home. It was originally found by the Blackfoot Indians who still regard it as a stone to ward off evil. You can view more pictures of this unique handcrafted piece and read more about by clicking here. I hope you'll find this as interesting as I do!

Picture from Bowness Spring Fair

Thought I would give you all a glimpse of our tables at the Bowness Spring Fair a few weeks back. We have a lot of product to show...next time we'll need a little more space than we had here.

A Departure from the Norm

This is a new piece I've just created and quite a departure from what you normally see from me. It's cedar and chrysocolla accented with Swarovski crystals. Click here to see more about 'Tranquil Forest'.
