john, patty, and hazel

i have a new nephew!!! this here is traci's brand new little munchkin, john michael... he is so precious. at her ultrasound in june, traci was told she was having a girl, so this little guy was a bit of a surprise! so very cute...


i'd also like to share that i made a lovely new friend, patty. she is a new jewelry artist at the artisan's gallery. she's a very dear lady. she also happens to have an incredible collection of vintage cabs, mostly turquoise. the girls and i went to visit her today and she sent me home with a wonderful treat bag...

these were all made in the 1970's. the feathers are AMAZING, hand-carved and just gorgeous! i am so excited to start using them in my jewelry. (the oblong piece of turquoise in the center on the right is already a ring. you can find it in my etsy shop tomorrow!)

and, last but most certainly not least... i'll give you three guesses what hazelnut's got on her head...
