Jewelry

Sunny day in Maine! Sorting through my handmade jewelry to possibly sell at some upcoming vendor events! Nursing necklaces, nursing bracelets... glass beads, wooden beads, clay beads, semi-precious stones... necklaces and earrings just for fun, a few anklets... Should maybe put a few things in my etsy shop as well!

Maple Syruping at our house

Lots of fun for a Saturday's work...too cold for the sap to run much today so we're excited to see how much tomorrow brings! Plus, we also tapped a second tree!
