As Promised

 Morning...
I was headed home from my accountant's office yesterday and it was so pretty and warm out, and I just happened to have my camera in the car, so I took a detour. I took a quick walk through the botanical gardens. I was determined to snap some photos of daffodils and I figured this was better than pulling over on a busy road to shoot the ones that were randomly popping up. The problem about warm weather in the winter is that it still gets dark at 5:00, even though everyone still wants to be outside playing. I shouldn't complain.

 Otis got to run around while I was loading up my kiln. We have a hilly yard so he plays fetch with himself. If he lays the ball down it will roll down the hill and then he can chase it. When he was a pup this would entertain him for hours.

With all those nice pictures, I thought I would show you where I have been spending a lot of time the last few days. I have been doing lots of glazing. I seem to have accumulated a lot of orders so I am working to get those finished up as well as get new beads made. I have some prototypes in the kiln today that I am pretty excited about. I am even thinking about submitting a jewelry project to a magazine. That's something I haven't done in forever.

Anyway, the desk is a little messy and needs a good cleaning but I can reach all of my glazes when I sit here so until I have a break in the glazing, it will look like this.

Have a great day!

Botantical Gardens and Inpsiration

Hello,
Here are the photos of the botanical garden I promised. It was such a cool place! Fairchild Botanical Gardens is the official name if you are ever going to be in Miami, don't miss it. Look at these colors!

I really love visiting botanical gardens and aquariums. Actually I live just around the corner from the Georgia Botanical Gardens and I visit often. But I have to say I am a sucker for palm trees and other tropical plants. I guess it's the clean lines and fun colors that attract me.

Also, I don't want to be one of those bloggers that apologizes when it's been a long time since a post. But here goes my explanation on the lack of posting. It's spring. I get really busy in the spring and my top priority is getting my orders out. So if I am not posting as often, it's because I am in the studio making and glazing beads.

Gotta go make more beads now....
