I Have Been Remiss

Wow!  I can't believe how time continues to fly on me.  My first two shows for this year completed already.  These are also my first outdoor shows so it has definitely been a learning experience.  I was so busy I didn't have time to take pictures or do much shopping myself.

Oh well, here's looking forward to more adventures.  Next show is Kempenfest in Barrie the long weekend in August.


Here's some pretty things to wet your appetite until then:

Busy Weeks

I can't believe two weeks have just flown by.  I swear I just blinked since last post! 
Prom was the big event in our house two weeks ago.  Our youngest officially finishes grade 12 this month.  (She’s going back in September because there are some more courses she wanted but couldn’t get before.  But that’s another story.)

Getting the right dress was a big deal of course.  She found one in one of her favourite colours – Teal!  You wouldn’t think that teal would be a teenager’s pick but there you go…  And this girl has black hair with streaks of red framing her face.  Here’s a close up of the colour:



Her dress is strapless with a sweetheart neckline and I had the perfect necklace for it.

It's a double strand woven necklace with Carnelian beads and Rice Pearls dyed steel blue, 18 inches long.  It looked perfect on her.  Proud mom or what?

The next week was full of charity walks for Relay for Life and chauffering for Anime North, a huge convention for all fans of anime stories, games, characters, etc.

Last minute preparation is underway for this weekend's show, first one for this season.  See details here:

It occurred to me that today's post has the first samples of my creations, an oversight on my part soon to be rectified.  I'm working on a new website, and will post all the details soon.
