Today's Treasury List




Today my items have been included in an amazing 6 treasuries! That's very exciting for me! Blogger only allows 5 pictures at a time, so I've divided them into two groups. Here are the first 3. Thank you to all of the wonderful curators!

Locked Out and 4 Treasuries!





What a day! My husband came home early this afternoon to have lunch. My son and I had already eaten and were in the back swimming. After about half an hour, my husband came out to say "bye" and that he was returning to work. About 10 minutes after that I went to get something inside. The door was locked! Then I tried the front door and checked all of the ground floor windows. We were locked out! Thank goodness we keep the sunscreen on the patio and that I hadn't locked my car and keep water inside! He finally came home around 4:30. My son and I were bored and hiding in the shade. Even with sunscreen we can't be out all day. Now we're relieved to be in safe and sound. My husband is cooking dinner as we speak... :)

Anyway, my items are in 4 new treasuries! I would have blogged about this earlier, but you know, something came up. Enjoy these wonderful collections:


"I'm Melting," curated by TrickyFox, includes my Orange Bubble Necklace.

"Some of my Favorite Things," curated by kheilartworks (a very valued customer - thank you!), includes my Kiku Flower Suncatcher.

Sorbet and Sunshine


I woke this morning to find that my Sun Light Catcher was featured in a truly lovely treasury. "Sorbet and Sunshine" was curated by leapinggazelle. This treasury features glass in soft shades of blue, pink, and pale amber. It is obvious that a lot of thought went in to this curation. The photos , selections,, and arrangement are really beautiful! leaping gazelle is a photographer (please check out her shop)and her curation reflects this. I'm keeping my fingers crossed for this one!

Faces


Etsy :: Treasury List

TheFamiLeeJewels included my Luna Candle Holder in her treasury titled, "Faces that grab your attention!" The baby pic is too cute! Check out TheFamiLeeJewels handcrafted jewelry. I especially like "Tropical Dreams," which is a necklace which the artist classifies as "Salvaged Style." Very cool.

Another Etsy Treasury!




DCHStudio was kind enough to include my new Sun Candle Holder in her latest Treasury. The treasury features beautiful pieces in amber. I was going to write about this piece today, so this works well!

The Sun Candle Holder is is made using a fiber mold that I have created myself. The resulting relief has wonderful refraction qualities. The shape of the sun shows as the candle flame flickers. Aside from the fused glass layers and the relief, I've finished it with elegant bead dangles.

Click on DCHStudio's name to view her lovely ACEO oil paintings. Click on the treasury pic to view the Sun Fused Glass Candle Holder. Hope you like it!

A New Lantern


Here is the Pimento Fused Lantern. (Click on the pic to view more details.) It is a five-sided lantern. I started with a clear base and fused garnet-colored murrini slices and small murrini that remind me of olives. I really like how dimensional this piece is. It's so beautiful when lit...

Wish Whimsies!



I've designed this beautiful Wish Whimsy to add a sparkle of light and color to your garden. It is the perfect decoration for your potted plant, or to place directly in the ground. This Wish Whimsy features a centerpiece of reddish-orange glass accented with a drak red, orange, and yellow millefiori flower, fused onto a clear base. I make the Wish Whimsies in many different colors and styles.
