Happy Birthday!

 
I made this as a Birthday gift. The recipient was very
pleased to receive such a colorful and quirky gift

 
This is the special order, delivered today
The request was for a "garden" sized Lighthouse
Really pleased how well it turned out!

 
and finally today these two little beauties were sold on my Etsy shop
They are now at the mercy of Canada Post
(They were wrapped with love and care!)
Hopefully they will arrive safe and sound in Montreal!

Feedback

 
Opened my email to discover a thank you from a friend
 
He recently retired as a Pharmacist and I made his a plaque that says "Vitamin Sea", he and his wife intend to spend time on their boat this summer
 
What a perfect thank you to include a shot of my gift in situ
 
I am feeling very pleased!

Long Weekend

 
Post vacation I've had a few things to be getting ready
 
Lighthouses? What is the attraction with lighthouses?
 
A small one with working light and a 3' one for the garden!
 
Whatever floats your boat (PUN intended)!
 
 
This lovely plaque is awaiting approval from the buyer and
 
 
this is a gift for a birthday, but who is the recipient?
 
Later

It's the Weekend!

 
Now I am the first to admit that I love a bargain
 
Saw this excellent Workmate Shop Box in a local thrift shop
 
It was calling my name and with a bargain price of $20, I had to buy it
 
 
 
I am very fortunate to live just a five minute walk from the beach
 
So driftwood is an obvious choice for me to craft with
 
I have special place where I collect wood
 
I cannot reveal the location because I covert those special pieces I find and want to keep it secret
 
Projects in production so I must away!
 
 
I must also reveal my last two finished pieces
 
A special order for a special lady, she was thrilled!
 
 
Ice Cream Colored Houses
 

 
and The Wharf

Happy Mother's Day

 
Mother's everywhere will receive flowers today, but my driftwood and bark flowers will last all year round!
 
I actually made these for my partner for Valentines Day
and look they haven't wilted or drooped at all!
 
Well we are back from our exploration to Sydney, Australia
What a crazy place that is! Wild weather, crowded and noisy, but worth the visit
 
Back to work and finally back to some creative fun, now the dreaded jet lag has abated!
 
Promise to post my latest creations ASAP
