It's up a little later this year, but I was finally able to get my tree decorated! It may not be traditional, but black is always a classic.

Sumptuous confections from (thank you, Sheila)!

Rich, vibrant colors and sparkling splendor. Every detailed piece is different, and complements every other piece exquisitely.

I asked for an autumnal mix of dangles, and every expertly made one was perfectly picked.

But how to choose a favorite? How to give up even one to a project? I'm afraid I will become Smaug, Glaurung, Fáfnir, jealously guarding my hoard.

My mother, ever a collector of the curious, loves crows. I made her a necklace with a birthstone charm and an altered tin for some of her other curiosities.

The image is from a print I got her many years ago that I photographed and smushed, it is not available for sale by me. This was just a gift of love to my mama. If you're interested in the image, look up Krähe by Rudi Hurzlmeier; my poor attempt at photo editing doesn't begin to do this old crow in boots justice.

Incidentally, my mother got Covid while I was making this for her. I'm sending the gift to her with a note, "sorry about the Covid, but here's a Corvid". She'll get it.

I made two 4x6 mixed media magnets; one is for my sister-in-law, the other for a friend. I used elements from Spring Farmhouse collection, Beautiful Board, CREATIVEFX glaze, the honeycomb stencil from and , and the Secret Notes stamp. I only wanted what would have been the negative space from the stencil, so I applied glaze to the stencil rather thickly on wax paper, peeled the stencil and set it - glaze side up - on clean wax paper, then pressed my painted and stamped canvas face down onto the stencil. It worked perfectly!
