A belated happy holidays to you and yours!

I wanted to take a moment to thank Molly, who is a fellow Pennsyltuckian and crafty gal, for featuring my work in her blog Molly's Muses. She had included my Pennsylvania Wildlife bracelet in a post back in November, and her thoughtful husband purchased it for her as a Christmas gift. She's now featuring it in her post-holiday entry. I definitely have to agree with her sentiment about handmade gifts. I gave my mom an adorable Boston Terrier necklace from LuluBug Jewelry, and some of my favorite presents include the awesome Muertos the Sugar Skull plush, a Namaste rim-blown flute made by Anasazi Dream Flutes, and a pair of Mayan-style flared plugs from One Tribe.

I've also neglected to mention some Treasuries in which my work has been featured. The first one is appropriately holiday themed, evoking visions of candy canes and sugar plums. I love the combination of turquoise and red in this collection!

The second two feature my Circus Caravan cuff.

I love the Bohemian vibe of this treasury.

I've been in the doldrums as far as my artistic endeavors are concerned, and I'm hoping that the new year will bring with it a renewed creative spark and thus some new items in the Etsy shop.
