What on earth? I found these pods in NH

I was stunned at the exotic style of these pods. I recently moved from Florida where the tropical fauna was not surprising. But the amazing exotic pods in NH? I love the way they are color coordinated, enjoy!

Back to work

I love NH and I am very pleased that we have moved here. The nature is very inspiring. I feel my interests changing. Funny how the location you are living in inspires and influences you. I am rusty at my photo documenting and listing on Etsy. It took me all morning to list two items!

My posies are off to New Zealand

I wish I could stuff myself into the mail and go too! I am making a few dozen of my up-cycled flower brooches for a shop in New Zealand. I hope I get a photo of the shop or the proprietor.

Hand Painted Flowers

My friend put hers on a straw cowboy hat, I thought it looked cute. She was too shy to be in the picture. Too bad because she is sooo pretty.

Bright Hand Painted Flower Pins

A friend asked for some flowers for her wedding. She is Latin and gave me swatches of a beautiful teal and orange. A Latin wedding is a very fun celebratory event. The gorgeous dark hair and tan skin of the women look amazing with intense colors. I made a few dozen flowers and LOVED the bright colors. It inspired me to experiment. I love the brights.
