Wood for Earth Day

To celebrate Earth day...the trees are finally here , set in "antique brass' because silver just didn't work. I love the warmth of the brass , the chains are long, and I found cute little leaves to use as a garnish.  The Made of Wood show opened today.  In the Window on Broadway we have a fabulous wood worker, Wayne Muma. he has made some beautiful pieces, spalted maple, ebonized ash, apple.wood. Slide your hand across the fine surface, cast your eyes over the elegant lines, if they are not the right size of course he'll do custom orders.

Are these Easter Eggs?



I just made a few of these lovely little glass tree beads, my contribution to the Beads on Broadway anniversary celebration...which by the way we are calling the "Sassy Celebration " It is really to spread the word about the collaboration of Victoria Kirk from Sassafras with Beth Grant and her wonderful beads. Inspired by Beth's beads in 4 colour ranges Victoria has designed some lovely pieces, and Beth's been busy making beads. Altogether many little packages of jewellery are speeding across the country...to Winnipeg, PEI, and of course to Dragonfly Arts on Broadway.
