Spring is for making Daisy Chains

In heat of a nice spring day I can recall taking our family dog to the park. I would run and let her chaise me until we had to lay down to rest. I loved looking up at the clouds (Oregon... always one or two) and see all the patterns and designs in them. It never failed at that park that spring would have a patch of daisy weeds growing in the grass.  I could spend a good part of that day making them into daisy chains. And so I am again, day dreaming and making daisy chains. Above is a photo of the first beads in this series I called Daisy Chain,, this set is listed for sale in my Ebay shop this week.

"I see you working there... isn't it time for a walk yet??"

How can I resist the face of my little supervisor. It must be time for a break and a walk! This is Millie the Million dollar puppy. You ask why a Million dollars? Well when Chole had puppies, my Hubby said I needed to sell her. So the price tag was $1,000,000.00 Let me tell you, there was a lot of interested people. But no one could come up with the cash.... OH DANG. So at about 3 months old my Hubby said I needed to name my dog. Millie, short for "Million Dollar Baby" :)  LOL I win!

Great look for your hoop earrings. Contact me to order a different color and pay on paypal.   frzbedog@comcast.net

The most valuable beads.

These beads are made with cremains. I know it is a difficult thing to understand when someone is in need of a bead made of cremains. To have a bead to touch and fiddle with for support of your loss is a different concept. I have been asked several times if I make them. The answer is yes. It is a very private and emotional thing for both the person making the request and for me the Artist.  These beads are of my best friend, my Carly. She was an amazing bicolor Sheltie whom I miss dearly.  Contact me at Frzbedog@comcast.net  and yes, Carly was Frzbedog
