Ups and Downs

The studio is a wreck.  The window was recently replaced and hasn't been framed in yet.  This means that the work table is still down, things are piled everywhere, I barely have enough room to work on the wedding dress, however, I think the bed is still in there somewhere...under all the piles.  Book and box making has come to a halt.

Lace making is in full swing.  That is to say, it was until Boo decided to help Mommy by unraveling 2 spools of thread at the same time.  Not by pulling and pulling it unwound, but pealing it off the balls like an orange.  It took two hours to separate and sort it all out.  One of the balls was to be a gift too, so I have to go buy a replacement.  *laugh*  Maybe I should just set it all aside till after Halloween.

Rocky's Birthday

My neice is turning 12 this Saturday and I'm sending this to her.  It was fun to make and my first attempt at a Split Ring.  I love love love how the coloring turned out.  So not planned.
