Things that I do when no one is looking.

I have been interested in making paper mache bowls for many years. Some earlier attempts were dismal but I am much happier with this effort.  Inspired by fellow Etsyians who do a wonderful job of making simple, elegant, paper mache objects, I decided to give it a try.  It is a great project for me since all of my jewelry supplies are still packed away in boxes.  I started the project in NYC with friends and then I got a little bit crazy when I got back to Wyoming. I currently have them all around the cabin and am wondering just what I am going to do with all of them!

  They are lovely and I like to gaze at them. 

 Have a look.

Vacation time is here.  We all need to get away - I so hope that I will have to chance to sit on a beach in the sun.  These earrings will look so good with your swimsuit and floppy hat.
