Inspiration for today

From the Montreol Botanical gardens

Flickr find Friday

"Handworked wood with false pebbles of polymer clay. This started out with the colored piece which was inspired by the skinner blend. I had to use it and decided for pebbles. When I assembled the necklace piece, I thought it would be interesting to make it with false pebbles, then came the wood piece in the middle. And right after the handworked wooden parts associated with sterling silver" is how Maniguette describes her creations.

Beautiful simplicity!

Have a wonderfully blessed weekend!

Festival of Nations .....

It was sooooooo much fun.

The people were wonderful! Lots of interesting conversations.....just amasing how quickly the world becomes very, very small. I met 3 couples that's going on vacation In South Africa in the next 6 months, so many more who has already been there and wants to go again - a people and a country that finds a place in your heart and soul forever!

Today I listed what was left of the jewelry in my Etsy store..... more to come during the rest of the week;-)

A Little bit of Africa

I know I've been quite and did not blog as I should the past few weeks...the reason? Our local Festival of Nations.

I've been painting tablecloths......

made polymer clay spoons and napkin rings......

and a few pieces of jewelry...yes, it's real porcupine quills!

Today I still making little Zulu love letters and then the baking starts!

Cannot wait till the 15th!

Enjoy your week and may it be filled with blessings!
