This is the last pair of earrings I will show you this week, I promise.
I'm calling these
Athens which I think is fitting. They just have an old-school, classic look to me. I {heart} these Swarovski teardrop pearls I got a few weeks ago. This is the first time I've used them and they are just gorgeous to work with. Love em!
I listed these in my
Etsy shop here for anyone interested.
Thank you for your words of advice yesterday about getting published. I appreciate it so much!
I was hoping to get out in the garden this morning with my
new camera and take some shots of the flowers. But an angry robin wasn't letting that happen. We discovered a nest under our deck, on one of the support beams, several weeks ago. Mike was going to knock it down but I pleaded with him to let it stay.
Well, this morning I certainly got a taste of my own medicine! I was out in the garden for not fifteen minutes when the angry father robin started charging at me, beak sharpened. When ground assault didn't work, he tried aerial assault. I'm not one to have flying animals hurling themselves at my head, so I retreated. I waited half an hour and went back out, thinking he would have calmed down or flown away. But no, he was waiting for me!
So, no camera play time for me this morning. Yes, I did say
new camera. My Sony Cybershot is six years old and while it has served me well, it's been malfunctioning for about a year. There are days when I can't even turn it on. Then other times when it'll freeze in the middle of shots. I've been thinking about a new one for three years, but it took me this long to save up the money. Uncle Sam provided most of the incentive with the wonderful rebate we received in May. I just needed a couple months to come up with the remainder.
I'm hoping to have something crafty to share with you all tomorrow. Or if the robin will let me, some garden photos.
