New Earrings in the Shop

I've been adding some new earrings to the Etsy shop TabbyToo.
There's this vivid lime green and brass pair:

This deep brown lucite and brass pair:

This pair of acorn earrings made with rich looking deep topaz brown glass:

These sterling silver pair of earrings made with white opalescent glass flowers and the hand made sterling ear wires pictured in my previous post:

And some copper kitty earrings, inspired by my kitties in the garden:

The Pond's New Inhabitants

A couple of leopard frogs moved into the pond a few weeks ago. These frogs are native to the area. I don't know whether they came via the irrigation ditch than runs nearby, or whether somebody laid some eggs in my upper pond and the tadpoles grew up in there without me noticing. Either way, I've got some new pond inhabitants, provided they can avoid the snake that lives nearby. Leopard frogs aren't nearly as problematic as bullfrogs. They don't get as big and don't seem to bother the fish much.

New Spool Rack and Spinning Wheel

Today I had fun at the local weaver's guild used equipment sale. I picked up a spool rack that my spouse wanted for warping his loom and also a little double drive spinning wheel that needs just a little bit of work to be a nice wheel. It's such a pretty wheel.
I also picked up some pearl cotton and various little odds and ends such as orifice hooks, sleighing hooks and such.

Sterling Silver Ear Wires

Just got out my jig and wire whacker and made up some sterling silver ear wires using half hard 20 gauge wire that I've had for over a decade. They're all nice and de-burred and hardened. Now I just have to made something with them.
