Kitty Kat Friday

It will be a week on Saturday that this little guy joined our family. Captain Morgan is a hoot, plays hard then just falls asleep, I forgot how fun kitties are. Jack the gray tabby in the picture was not so sure about him there was lots of growling and hissing going on, but I think all of Morgans silly antics has finally turned Jack around. It sounds like two elephants running around the house, although there is still the occasional hiss and swat.

How could you not just love that little face!

A wonderful old button, pearls, beads and some copper and here you have Grecian Goddess.

You can find her in my Etsy shop.

Wishes to you all for a great weekend.

Queen Anne's Classic Baroque

I would like to think this necklace would have looked just stunning on Queen Anne...however if you notice she is lacking a fancy adornment, could it be she just could not find the "right" piece to go with her outfit. The Baroque era, a favorite of mine, where the arts flourished in ornate, intricate and grandiose style. With Queen Anne in mind and the age of opulence, I created this plum colored delight. I am very pleased with the simplicity and elegance of this piece.

Queen Anne's Classic Baroque Necklace

I would love for a day or so to be transformed into that time and place where I could gaze upon all the fine art, jewels,hand woven fabrics and hand crafted furniture. How amazing that would be. However I would be back in a flash for my hot shower, toothbrush and indoor plumbing...and this girl is not wearing a corset!

What is your favorite era? What fascinates you about that time in our history?

Baroque Pearl Bracelet

I love working with baroque pearls, I like the old world look and feel they have and think they look great in modern designs. A nice twist to a classic...
You can find this in my Artfire shop.
