We are back from a lovely, lovely week by the ocean. It was such a gift to spend some good time with the surf and with family too. I miss it so much already that I thought I would just jump right on back into this little space of mine and see if it helps me plant my feet a bit again. So...these are some acorn necklaces I have been working on for awhile now. Really, we had the most wonderful harvest of acorns this past fall. They were a delicious shiny brown and so perfectly formed. We filled our pockets on our daily forest walks and ended up with quite a collection! I drilled some holes in a few of them and strung them on thin cotton cording with glass and stone beads. Each has a bird shell bead flying above. I am really enjoying necklace making and can't stop thinking about all of the possibilities. It is so satisfying and fun to boot! I have made a few different kinds that you can see here and here. Oh, and make sure to see this darling necklace on one of my favorite blogs!
I do hope this finds you all well and staying cool for those of you who are melting away like us!
Just lovely, it is always nice to use Mother Nature in your creation's, cheers Marie
