PICKED SWEET CHERRIES NECKLACE
Rare Red Seaglass from Lake Michigan and Sparkly Rhinestone High Quality Cherry Charm on Silver Bail and Chain Necklace
Red seaglass/beachglass is a rare find - and I found this one in Lake Michigan near Traverse City which is the Cherry Capital of the World!  I have carefully drilled the red beach glass into a bead to daintily dangle along with a sparkly sweet cherry rhinestone charm from silver and red jumprings from a silver slide-bail onto a silver chain. Even the lobster clasp is large for ease of use and is quality stainless steel connected to a cute tiny tag steel connector.  The chain undone end to end is 21 inches, and as worn including seaglass/cherry charm will hang 12 inches. by ShorelineDesigned

A Week of Sketches

I gotta admit, I've had a really nice and relaxing past few days.

It makes me feel a little guilty, but only a little; hehe.

My husband has been on a work related trip to CA, and well this pretty much left me and my little guy with the house all to ourselves.

The first night, when I tucked my son in; I looked around and wondered what to do with myself.

This little bit of extra me time started a really entertaining late night habit;

Mommy Movie Night

...

Everynight :)

(but only after my little was asleep)

I love horror movies, but never really get to watch them at the current point in time because they're not toddler friendly. My hubby, sadly he doesn't really care for scary movies. They give him nightmares; me however, they don't bother me a bit. It kinda freaks my husband out. He says I'm the only person he's ever seen that never flinches. I always laugh and tell him I'm generally okay, I understand it's make believe and made just to get a reaction out of someone. Plus when the background music changes you can kinda predict that something is going to happen, so I'm ready for it. 

I don't know, maybe I'm unique...but I accept that. 

One week all to myself. A new movie everynight.

Me and a couch full of kitties and puppies.

It was awesome.

It was relaxing. Propped my feet up and drew the whole time.

I never really made it to my desk to get anything beyond the sketching finished, but I have so many new illustrations to work with now, which is a bit exciting too.

I'll get these inked and colored soon, so that I can share with everyone.

I'm also pouring my heart into this years Christmas Angel. I really want it to be the most special and beautiful one out of the past 3 years that I've drew them.

Hope everyone is having a wonderful holiday time.

The biggest of Hugs,

Anna
