The Garden

We are putting in a garden at our new house. I thought you would like to see the progress as we are waiting for the deer fence to be finish. I started the seeds but had to bring them in last week as it got cold again. They are growing so fast I might have veggies in these little pots.

SUNSET BACK

SUNSET

My first attemt with resin earrings. I took pictures out of Artist's Cafe Magazine. I punched holes with metal puncher added jump rings and hammered copper rings from hodgepoderio on etsy. Tornado wire wrapped on earring loops. I will go back and wire wrap again as its not the best job. I just love them. I got excited, wanted to share with you. What do you think?
