While Spring officially starts on March 20, you would have thought it had already arrived here weeks ago in the desert of Arizona!
We haven't had the usual winter weather this season, especially the cooler temps that are so welcome after our very hot Summer & Fall. We've had late spring temperatures since mid January, (mid 80's to low 90's) breaking many high heat records.
But on the positive side, the desert plants and trees have been blooming like crazy, filling the air with fragrance and creating a havoc of color in the desert and my yard.
I know that many of you have had a very snowy and cold winter, so I was inspired to share with you two new pieces that will hopefully pull you out of the winter doldrums.
Wherever you call home, they will surely liven up your spirits and your wardrobe!
Both are available here on my website - click each image for more information and to purchase.
Check my website regularly as I am always adding new pieces!

One of My Happy Places to Visit
2026 brings many highlights, although the best highlight is the Tucson Gem and Mineral Show in February.
If you haven’t ever gone, put it on your "to do" Bucket List!
In today’s rising economy, we found Silver products higher than usual. But remember, the rising cost of silver only adds value to your purchases in the future.
Turquoise is the stone of my choice, and visiting with my favorite stone cutters during the show was also a highlight. Nothing more satisfying than to choose my own stones.
I had great time spent with Johnson Lapidary a father son business. Otteson’s of Tonapah Nevada, still known for their “Turquoise Fever” Series on TV, https://www.peacocktv.com/watch-online/tv/turquoise-fever/5912802039099792112 had not only Turquoise, but great White Buffalo and Black Jack Turquoise.
I spent lots of time in the Kingman Booth, always giving a WOW factor. Selected some great Freeform turquoise stones, just to silver wrap, watch for these on my web site in the next few months!
I have next year’s show already marked on my calendar. Inspiration for my creations come from quite a few places, but always flows from my heart !
