Mega Dust Storm
Sunday afternoon saw the swift arrival of a HUGE dust storm...like we havent seen in decades!!!
This photo is taken from our back patio...overlooking the Kalgoorlie Race Course (where we had spent a wonderful Kalgoolie Cup Day on Saturday)
You can barely see the outline of the marquees and tents...which they were half way though taking down.
Huge dust storm = a nine hour power outage and piles of dust indoors...not happy Jan!!!

Gotta a Leaf thing going!!

I have a little leaf fetish...and have been making lots of leaves...I have put together a couple of simple but vibrant necklaces...with more to come at some stage!

                                                   

       Bronze/Blue leaves

                                                             Pink/Purple leaves!



Thrilled to be a winner!

I won something!!! :) Not often that happens!
It is something I will treasure...and made from someone I admire greatly. Lynda Moseley from SCDiva hosts a monthly giveaway on her blog.Lynda is an amazingly talented polymer clay artist in the US. She is also incredibly generous and  a lovely person. I am happy to have 'meet' her!! :)
She often collaborates with other fantastically talented people...as in this case. The necklace for July features beads made by Jill Kollmann. These ladies work well together...I can't tell you how much I LOVE this necklace!!! I am a lucky girl indeed!!!
Thank you Lynda!!! You have made me feel so lucky!! :)
Here is the necklace:

Facelift!!

No not me...silly...alllllllllthough...I prolly could do with one...hehe!
I've played around and given the blog a more updated look...well I think so!
What do you think?
Unfortunately...in the process I seem to have lost the pictures of my lovely followers...:(
I have no idea what I've done and am trying to fix it.
