Tis the Season.... Ho Ho Ho!

California White Sage Smudge Sticks!

I have just added 3 new items at my Etsy store. The new items are two sizes of sage smudge bundles and a mini smudge kit. The mini smudge kit is perfect for traveler's or those with limited space like I have. It would be a great gift item for a loved one or friend.

The mini smudge kit is shown above. It includes a 4" mini sage and lavender smudge bundle, 4" abalone shell, and a 4" 3-legged Cobra style wooden stand.

Great tutorials!

For all of you wire wrap and beaded jewelry artisans as well as my wire wrap students, I found this awesome Aussie Etsy seller who has great tutorials for the popular herringbone, bird's nest, and briolette wire wraps. I know Susie will love the tutorial for the briolette wrap because that wrap is still giving her fits..... and (shhhhhh) I am getting it for her for Christmas. ;-) Patricia is currently running some terrific specials so be sure to check those out. If you stop in and visit her shop don't forget to give her a "heart."

Winter came way too fast this year!

Well dang, if winter didn't come too fast this year. I was not ready for summer to end. It's like we went from summer to winter with only a few weeks of fall. Summer was definitely too short!

For holiday shoppers I am selling Jewelry locally at Harvest Health Food store located on Hwy. 2 in Priest River, ID. I still have my Etsy store and I will be adding more items (waiting on gemstones and Ebay auctions.) If you are interested either check back or check my Etsy mini on the right side of my blog. This past summer and fall I've also been teaching wire wrap jewelry classes. Some of my students have really caught on fast. ;-) I want to personally thank Susie for the beautiful jewelry pieces she made for me. I will treasure them always.

I'd like to take this time to wish everyone a very happy and safe holiday season and all the best to you for the new year. To all of my friends in the north country, stay warm and cozy!

Cheers! LVS
