The Bee Keeper

My newest creation:
The Bee Keeper Necklace
This necklace took me weeks to design. I tried and tried to figure out the best way to make the piece. I wrecked a few precious pieces of wood, (that I will be able to salvage), wasted SO MUCH resin, and painted so many little bee's that I could have had an army by the time I was done. But it was worth it. This necklace is definitely my most unique one yet!

Housed in this little piece of wood is five little bee paintings, and they are loose inside the necklace.
I felt a gif would show the neat-ness of the necklace a bit better than me explaining it.

it must be nice to live by mountains

This week I decided to do something new. I made a couple of mountain pieces. I love the mountains, and they are something that I didn't really notice as a kid, despite being surrounded by them, until I went somewhere where there are no mountains. I don't see them that much in Victoria, they are there, but not as evident as on the mainland of B.C. and I miss them! Here is my homage to the snowy peaks of British Columbia! Hope you love them!


Oh... And I see a lot more landscape pieces in the future!

April Showers

Not much to be honest.
I'm a simple girl. Tea, Rain and a good book will keep me satisfied for hours. I just had to snap a few photos of the last one we had. I was overwhelmed by the Hollywood rain we had last Saturday, and i was perfectly content in being lazy since I worked a really long 5 am shift at my evil and hateful job.
Anyway... not getting into that now.
Have a lovely day!

Victoria Living

Hi! How are you?
These photos are from a while ago when I met up with the lovely meagan for tea and treats! We walked down by Ogden's point and sipped on our beverages while enjoying the stunning view and reflecting on how lucky we are to live in such a stunning place.
Enjoy:)

The Owl and The Pussycat

I'm really not sure if this necklace would sell, but I really love it.
I made this last time I was in penticton and I just haven't gotten around to listing it yet. Mostly because I wasn't sure what to price it at. I decided to go a bit higher because I'll be sad if I sell it but probably wont make another one. One of a kind piece everyone:)

-----------------------------------------

The Owl and the Pussy-cat went to sea
   In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money,
   Wrapped up in a five-pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
   And sang to a small guitar,
"O lovely Pussy! O Pussy, my love,
    What a beautiful Pussy you are,
         You are,
         You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!"

When I Take Etsys Advice...

Hi everyone!

So I finally took etsys advice and took some photographs on a "model". I definitely don't consider myself a model, but I'm the best tool I have. So I busted out my camera remote and tripod and took some photos. I love the way they turned out! I hope these brings me some exposure.

Here is the article I read from etsy:
