Sunday, a perfect crafting afternoon.

 It began a bit sunny but is now cool, gray and breezy. Not even 60 degrees which is totally fine with me! I like cool and gray. 

I have made a few things for the shop today which is my typical Sunday. This day began with a mad dash into the building my shop is in to check on an upstairs plumbing leak. Argh. I really do not like days that begin with a crisis. I think all is well now and maybe I can concentrate on other things. Favorite things like drawing, painting and making jewelry! 

This week will find me in the shop on Monday, Thursday, Friday, and Saturday. I like seeing all my customers and enjoy being there. New beads have come so there is always the excitement of showing them off and putting them out into inventory. 

This is my little altar that is on the tiny bookcase shelf behind my desk. It reminds me to keep the faith and to trust my instincts and to be kind, thoughtful and express gratitude. Do you have anything similar? 
This is my little spice turn table that I have my hand tools on. They are in cups and jam jars and are the tools I reach for as soon as I sit down too work. I have other tools scattered in various areas about the studio in different work stations. 
Finally a finished drawing. I have all these new sketchbooks that Jacob & Phil have given me that I might never get them filled with images. I am so longing for a time I can work bigger. 

Summer is nearly here and the solstice is in two weeks. That's when more knitting and fiber work comes out and I retreat too the front porch to work outside, in a warm breeze.

Time to stir up some trouble in the kitchen. Until next time, be well and keep crafting. Lois
