Labor Day has come and gone.....




 
I'm sad that there is only a couple weeks left of summer. Norm and I have squeezed in all the golf we possibly can and haven't wasted a minute of the sunshine because we know, all too soon, we will be back to the ever present rain and dark days. We've spent good times with friends and family too and now the grandkids are back in school and we will all settle in to our regular routines.
I've made quite a few new beads and I'm editing my existing jewelry inventory. I will soon be on a quest to find new gallery representation. Sadly, Seagrass Art Gallery, so near to my home, lost their lease and they are no longer in business. A familiar story all over this country but our little rural area, here on Camano Island, has been hard hit businesswise. My husband and I even struggle to stay afloat in our other restaurant/bar business, in a larger metropolitan area. I hope this ecomomy gets better some day soon.

Hot, hot, hot!

"Fruit Loops" multi strand bracelet.

"Loosie Goosie" bracelet. SOLD but can be ordered.

"Loosie Goosie" earrings.

Lemon yellow stacked dot focal bead.

Black folkloric focal bead.


No, I'm not complaining. I like it hot. Especially because we haven't had very much heat this summer. I hear the 90 degree weather yesterday broke a record. Hard to believe but true. It's been a little cooler today and we actually had some sprinkles. I just really love summer. I like to have my doors and windows open and smell the fresh air.
