Wednesday ~ June 2nd
Front Side
I've been making these big beads, which we've started calling "Medallions" because of their shape & size, but also because of the wonderful connotation that comes with that word ~ "an award for being a winner".
Back Side
See how big they are! I also hope to make some of my own jump rings and headpins with the silver clay I have to work with so they'll each be one of a kind, just like you!
More to come... |

Thursday ~ June 3th
Wow, this is cool! |

Tuesday ~ June 8th
The lilacs are almost spent now. They've been such a pleasure, fragrancing the yard. I will miss them, but the lilies are coming along nicely & soon the roses, bee balm & peonies will be in bloom, taking their place, front centre stage.
We've completed the gurgler in the front & are close to completing the pergola. I have photos, but will wait until everything is done to show you how it looks. We are still waiting on our new front door, which should be here sometime in June. I am going to paint it purple! Is there any surprise in that?
Rain is expected all week. I will be at the torch instead of bent over in the flower beds and my back is very happy about this.
I got this video in my inbox today that I would like to share with you ~

My own set of Melanie beads
I'm off to Red Deer College for a wonderful weeklong class with the fabulous Melanie Moertel! I will have stories & photos when I return. Have a wonderful week! |

Happy Summer to you! I'm back from Red Deer & have a bunch of photos to go through & share, but today I have to build a rock wall & make a border, weed, prune & plant so I will share this cool video that I came across, which has nothing to do with beads, but will hopefully tide you over until I'm back with photos later this week:
