To the Rescue!

I stopped to help this little box turtle across the road. She sure has had a tough life from the looks of her shell. Sure hope that was the direction she was headed. What if she had finally made it to the other side and took one look back??? I have a whole children's story written about this topic. Someday I'll acutally send the manuscript off to a publisher. You'll be the first to know when I do that.

Fall at Gooseberry Lane

Busy into the season of gourds and learning about this new "blog" thing! Stumbling my way through it. To see more of my gourds you can go to http://www.gooseberrygourds.com/

New this year is my jewelry. I'll try to post pictures here soon. I make too many to even keep up with photos. I never throw a good piece of gourd away. So the shards as they are called are being repurposed into Art jewelry, pins and pendants at the moment. I love doing them so it's helped me get back into the groove and even creating some whole gourd projects.

A couple of small shows coming up in Nov. Then my goal is to open up a shop on etsy.com next year. Wish me luck. Yet again one more new thing to learn.
