I'm delighted to return to the Crown & Pumpkin Studio Tour with these new beauties and many more - because when it comes to gemstones, I just can't help myself. They must all come home with me and be made into a beautiful necklace! These 2 feature turquoise, red jasper, carnelian and freshwater pearls.
Thanksgiving Saturday and Sunday I'll be at the Cedar Hill Christmas Tree Farm along with 5 other artisans. Come fill your soul with our creations.....
