Butterfiles-I’ve started and I can’t stop!

Oh boy, it’s been two weeks since my last post. I have been in a funk and not wanting to do anything. And so in true fashion of my new mantra: ‘Do what you want to do when you want to do it’, I did nothing! Well, I read a couple of mystery novels. I still walked the dog. And I ate cookies and chocolate, had to, it was Valentines week!

I also bought some items on eBay. That was fun. And I’ve received several items in the mail. A couple of art pieces from some friends in a small swap and my pages from the chunky book swap. I’ll post pictures later, really cool stuff! It is so great getting real mail! I am so humbled by the enormous amount of talent out there!

I worked on these butterflies right after I finished my pages. Had to, got started and couldn’t stop! What actually happened is I took them to work to show off and my friend Nancy said (having seen the pages already), “Oh, these are nice too, but no wires.” So naturally I had to put wires on them, then beads and findings found their way into the project too!

I have almost given them all away so I guess I’ll have to make more! I’m working on some black and white ones now for a little show coming up in my little town. Again, more pics later! Enjoy!
