Not my usual "works of art"

Sometimes... creativity takes a little bit more of an edible form.

I give you Dark cherry, nutella fudge popsicles. 

Well, I'm not really giving any to you because we ate them all but they were delicious. 

Recipe:
1½ cups of dark chocolate almond milk
½ cup nutella
handful of dark cherrys, pitted
      reserve a half dozen and slice them in half

I threw everything in my magic bullet but a food processor or blender would work.
Pour into Zoku.
Eat.

Really that simple. :)

Giveaway winner and some tangling

First, I want to start out and say that Debbie Bennett is my giveaway winner. Debbie, I need you to shoot me an email with your address and I'll get your package out to you this week!

Yesterday was a busy day. First there was fingerpainting and then I did a private class with a good friend using the Tints on Tan technique created by Marty Deckel.

We started with some monotangles on Bijou 

And then dove in!

We did 2 tiles, then strung a 3rd.
I also finished one I'd been working on for a while as we were chatting and catching up on life!

Today is going to be a great day! I hope yours is wonderful too!

Messy is fun!

Today was fingerpaint day in the studio, which is always delightfully messy and I love to see the kids get into it!

I got the chance to finish up some awesome sculpy earrings that I learned how to make from my awesome friend Diane! I'm working on a cool little box but I have a shirt that will match these colors perfectly so I had to give it a shot!

I hope your day is filled with as much fun and laughter as was in my studio this morning and that you make something awesome.
And maybe a mess too!
