I am Doris in N CA. Over time, this has become the "serious" blog.
Since the suicide of my son, I have become involved in suicide awareness and, yes, that creeps into the blog on a fairly regular basis.

A Valentine's Treat
I am still destashing. Since Valentine's Day is coming up (and even though I'm not a fan of Hallmark holidays), I'm using it as an opportunity to find a new home for this pretty heart lampwork bead. I am pretty sure it is an early examply of Mavis Smith's work. The pins are there only to show the direction of the hole
So, leave me a comment under this post and my husband will draw a name next Saturday. Good luck to all.
Though it's not my style, I do know a gal that would go nuts over this :) Of course, she would then ask that I make her a necklace for it - but who am I to say 'no' to my sister-in-law? LOL
You don't need to enter my name though since I won your last drawing, which arrived on Friday by the way. Thank you so much for the bead and that beautiful little bag too.
This is a beautiful heart, and it has so much potential!
ReplyDeleteI'm not commenting for the treat, I'm not big on hearts, but that sure looks like Mavis.
ReplyDeleteCould be a Mavis heart, or maybe a Gerry? It's very pretty, whomever made it!

MMmmmmmmm...count me in! I'm working up a new kumihimo cord that would be a beautiful match to this heart!

that heart is beautiful
ReplyDeleteOhh! Please let Lady Luck smile on me. I would love to have that heart!
ReplyDeleteWhat a gorgeous little heart -- love the flowers and leaves! as well as the gold in the background. Reminds me of a cottage garden scene.
