Garnet Hill said it best: We are at the crossroads of two seasons. We are still enjoying those hot, long sunny days but with an eye on those warm fall days and cool evenings. August is also a time that gardeners love! All our spring and early summer efforts are very literally coming to fruition. We are picking, preserving and canning. Pickling is my favorite but oh! those jams and jellies made with juicy berries and stone fruit!!
I was thinking of those raspberries, figs, plums, and crimson apples while mulling about in my studio and started to pull my pink, red, and purple stones. Sometimes a simple, uncomplicated strand of lush rich gemstones says it all....And I DO love uncomplicated!
Here is a glimpse of some new pieces for this Saturday's Ligonier Country Market (but check the link or market website for my location):
And nothing says lucious like cherry jade, rubies, and amethyst!
Swing by and say "Hello" at the market this Saturday, I'm always happy to see you!
