Valen-Times

I finally finished my Valentine's heart necklace.  I'm not really a big heart fan but I do appreciate their sweetness on that special holiday.  

Description: Hammered brass heart soldered to copper and then oxidized.  Antique copper chain and handmade brass clasp.  

So much work went into making those tiny pieces.  I'm pretty anal and meticulous when it comes to filing edges--and it's even more difficult when your holding something about half the size of a dime.  

The last necklace shown is the Five Quartz points necklace all on brass.

All are for sale at Kuhl-Linscomb!

Color

Ania Arcaini is flawless.  I love her color palettes....from brights to neutrals. 

(need those boots)

One of my fav pictures of Jessica Hart.  Best part....is that hair.  

I sense a Bumble & Bumble day coming soon.

Cookie Monster

Cookie Time!! These photos are from last weeks baking adventures.  I have had the molasses sitting on the counter for well over a month when I finally decided it was time to back these amazing cookies.  The recipe for My Ginger Cookies came from this amazing book Chewy Gooey Crispy Crunchy by, Alice Medrich.  If you don't have this book, I suggest you buy it.  It has so many amazing recipes--even gluten free versions.  I was so thrilled with my results on the first try. Can't wait to try another recipe!
