Summer in the Mountains

I can't believe this year is flying by so quickly. Right now, it is time to enjoy summer days in my New Mexico mountains. The days are warm and nights are cool, so perfect temps for spending a lot of time outside. This could be why I haven't added a blog post in quite awhile. That and the fact that I have been working on new projects!! I've added new beaded pieces to the gallery pages. I've also been on two trips to gather new stones. A new find for my stash of stones is Teepee Canyon agate from Custer, SD. The color combinations are striking and I hope to do a piece using these stones soon!
Also, check out the New Designs page in the gallery. I've been playing with some new cuff bracelet designs as well as using metal frames to set beads in crystal clay. So, I have finished some projects despite the lovely weather that lures me outside on a regular basis. Please send me an e-mail if you see something you like. Wishing you all the best summer!
