Progress on the umbrella....



So many have asked about my newest project the umbrella. It really is one of my favorite things I have done in a long time next to jewelry of course. It just is taking more time than I thought it would. My arms get really tired drawing, with nothing to support them. Here are the newest pics of my project so far. I still have a problem... It needs, or I want it to have a name. It is all in black and white, has words and quotes, flowers and tons of swirls!! It will have clear sparkly crystals all along the spines too. Any suggestions??? PLEASE !!

30 Years

Been back home now about a week, Spent several days in Ruidoso NM. We went for our 30Th anniversary. All of our special anniversaries seem to end up in small quiet places. This one was no exception! It was a fun little town with tons of little shops, good food, and some great entertainment. Even a couple of casino, but we never even ventured into those. Did go see Inn of The Mountain Gods Casino... Very pretty, But the lake it is on is a way better view. I had no idea I could be in the mountains and see such pretty stuff in less than 5 hours from home. I forgot the camera, so all I have are phone pictures. Now mind you, It rained most of the time we were there, but that never hampered anyone, just seen lots of umbrellas every where.
