I really like this jasper stone , great coloring , all the swirls of green , kind of a marbling affect . I polished this freeform slab and liked the results , as most beaders and rockhounds I put the beautiful matte finished stone away and didn't think of it for oh lets see.... at least a year. Then I received a picture from my mother of fresh snow on two pine trees . She babied these 1 inch trees and planted them nearly 28 years ago, a gift from her twins in kindergarden... Now they are at least 15 ' tall, I have enlarged the picture and immediately my brain went into overdrive! The jasper stone! Finally a piece with meaning for my 'entire family' Such a perfect fit , I can see the stone covered with a light dusting of whites, some light grey , and tipped off in swarovski crystals.
My only concern is whether to make a wall hanging or a collar, after the holidays are over I might
get a better perspective on this idea that is cluttering my brain, making it hard to concentrate on the EBEG Bead Fest, I needed to blog about it to clear my head and put my priorities in line.
No progress on my 'Tarnished Angel' collar , but I did get two batches of fudge made, opened an early Christmas gift, very excited about getting a camera :) Totally needed it !! Now I need to see if it comes with a personal photogragher to teach me how to get good photos. Last but not least I included a picture of my cat Pete, she seems to be quite taken with the Christmas tree.
