New Woogie A Hit


Yippee!!  Gavin loves his new handwoven security blanket!  

Mama Caitlin was able to be very clear about what she wanted, which made my weaving job easy.  But it was still all up to Gavin.  Would he accept the new "woogie" or find it a poor attempt?  

Read the whole story at my new blogsite.

Rainbow Fluorite Healing Gems

Although the term rainbow fluorite is commonly used, it doesn't, in fact, refer to a particular stone. Well, it does, but only sort of. Fluorite is a specific stone. It comes in green, yellow, purple, blue, and clear, each stone with their own healing properties. "Rainbow fluorite" refers to those colors being mixed in a single strand or a single stone.




Each color of fluorite has specific healing properties. I've outlined them in my new blogsite, and I hope you'll visit there. You can also learn about the custom wedding jewelry that I made for 
Joan from rainbow fluorite (yeah, I used different colors) and amethyst.

A New Security Blanket for Gavin

Gavin loves his security blanket.  Unfortunately, the blanket is rapidly becoming very threadbare.  His mom and grandma have made many attempts to keep it together, but they can't keep it going forever.

That's where I come in.  Mom has ordered a custom-made handwoven security blanket.  You can see Gavin's old blanket and watch my progress on making his new one at my new blogsite.
