Oak and Rattan

My daughter showed up to surprise me at the Chamberlain Ranch meet. So I gave her the long dangly earrings I made for her, and then I made another pair in turquoise blue and royal blue to hang up on the pegboard to sell at my booth.

And I started another felt pin with beads.

I also made a tiny shelf of rattan and oak branches. It was perfect for setting my beaded pins on. When we unpack the truck I'll show you.

More Beading

Yesterday I started weaving a pair of earrings in blue, yellow and green. I started on the 2nd one today at the laundromat but didn't get to finish it. I made a portable kit that holds enough supplies to make one pair of earrings. Neat.

Coyote Earrings

I've been working on lots of things for the Chamberlain Ranch Shoot. I just started knitting a spring green hat with pink diamonds yesterday. This is a coyote design I want to add to a pouch. I've been making beaded earrings too. I designed a road runner that is wide, so it will have to go on a pouch or a necklace. It's neverending.

Beaded Brick Stitch Feather Earrings

Feather Shaped Earrings:
I've finished the first earring prototype. I've redrawn the pattern and I've ordered Delica beads for the improved version. But I still want to duplicate the first earrings so that I have a pair. I'm happy that the way I thought those earrings were made might actually be correct. I took an educated guess and I think it's right.

I just cut out the first shirt out of natural colored linen.

Mood change earrings.  These two photos are the same earrings. They change color as the temperature changes.  I only bought 2 of these beads and made these for me, but I'd be happy to drive to the store and get more beads if you have to have a pair.

Today I made 4 pairs of earrings. Two I'm keeping so people can see them and know I make jewelry. The others will be listed for sale sooner or later.
