Wow, I feel like I am not the only one abandoning their blog in the midst of the busy holidays and awesome sales on Etsy in the month of December! But life has calmed down a bit so I am back to post one of my latest pieces...

Issaquah Salmon Days
If I'm a beadaholic my husband is certainly a fishaholic, so the Issaquah Salmon Days are a perfect festival for us to attend. There are lots of lovelies for me to look at and he can stare at those fish ladders for hours. One booth we both fell in love with was Clark Mundy's Copper Salmon stall. His work is amazing, his website is http://www.coppersalmon.com/, and here is a photo of his booth with his lovely wife, and a work in progress.
Gold Filled Nest
This is the first time I 've used gold filled wire for one of my nests. The wire was lovely to work with, but the nests use so much wire this version is pricey! However, this one flew the coop this last week, the day I had to items on the front page of Etsy at different times-wow, what a rush that was. Interestingly, a lovely Etsian from the east coast bought it, and when I peeked at her shop one of her two photos she had listed was a lighthouse from the state I live in, Washington. Here 's a link to her site: http://www.etsy.com/shop.php?user_id=8010516

this time a necklace with a brass cross I've had for years, utilizing the turquoise colored magnesite beads with the striations that are picked up by the brass beautifully!
