Serial Maker

It has taken a while for the penny to drop but I have discovered that I am a serial maker.  It is rare that I make just one of anything.  I have to make the same thing over and over until I get things 'just right'.  Then I stop.  Just like that I stop and move onto something else.  There may be some more mileage in the key rings or some variation in making them but I am eager to to explore new and challenging things.

This has been another unusual week full of the mundane and of the unexpected too.  I had to go to the GP on Monday as I have been having an ongoing foot problem since tripping down a couple of stairs back in September.  She asked me if I worked and when I replied 'no' she looked at me and said 'what do you do all day?"   I told her that I like to make things and I am busy doing that.  She gave me an almost pitying look and I felt really small and useless. 

I still haven't returned to the vineyard, for several reasons really.  I wonder if it is just one of those things that has run its course as I always seem to have an excuse not to go. 

Well, the spring equinox is almost upon us.  A time for change.  A time for new directions.

I have decided to postpone the giveaway for the time being due to unforeseen circumstances (it isn't nearly as dramatic as it sounds)!

Have a lovely spring equinox! x

Another Key Ring

 I think this is my favourite key ring so far.

 I love the vibrant orange beads.

I like to make things with symbolism.

Hare charm  - representing fertility.
Triquetra charm  - representing the earth, sea and sky.
Pentacle charm - symbol of protection.

The beautiful vibrant orange ceramic bead depicts images of the sun and the foiled orange glass bead glows like the major star of our solar system.

A wonderful key ring for sun worshippers and nature lovers alike.

Ostara, Pagan, Spring

Key chains to celebrate the coming of Spring.  The one above has the hare (sign of fertility) the triquetra (representing the earth, sea and sky) and the pentacle (symbol of protection). The reddish brown and green beads represent the colours of the fertile land.

Two hares and a triquetra, and beads the colour of the sky and sea.  The egg shaped bead represents new life and the round bead reminds me of planets and our connection with the solar system.

SOLD (Blue one) Thank you very much! x

Making key chains - a pleasant diversion to relieve a jumbled mind.
