Purple Shard Window Pendant

by Libby on June 18, 2008

I’m keeping up with the one thing at a time focus. I barely squeezed in a bit of studio time last night, and managed to finish one pendant.

Size: 2.5 inches by 1.2 inches. Bezel: hand fabricated from sterling strip and sheet.  This pendant will be my donation to the Clay Connection 2008 auction.

I am really loving all things purple lately.

On the home front, E is off at camp. It’s her first summer working and I think the transition is going well. We had a crazy week last week switching from graduation mode to camp mode. M finished school on Monday and has turned her focus to getting ready to leave for 2 weeks of camp. Two weeks of no kids. Lovely!

A marvelous package arrived yesterday, bearing Hamish, one of Chris Pellow’s Wee Highland Cows.

My grandmother was born in Scotland and I couldn’t resist adding one of the shaggy charmers to our family. I think he’s suffering from some jet lag (or else he partied on the trip here) because here’s where he’s settled for the time being:

Libby — Are you bringing Hamish to the affair this weekend? I just adopted Mairie in honor of my mother in law. My husband Kim and our dog Clancy were pushing for Seamus so he and clancy could be best buds, but I decided I would add a female pet to balance the household. See you soon! regards, nt

Nancy, Too funny! I really should bring Hamish to the retreat. The poor guy has been trapped in my studio where it’s cool.

Hi there Libby,
I really had a great time at the retreat. I had been looking into adopting one of those wee cows a few months ago and after spotting one on someones table at the CC this weekend, I decided I HAD to have one! I even sneeked a photo of the one there. I do not know who he/she belonged to, but came home and adopted one right away! I was looking at their blog today and noticed you also have one! We will have to get them together sometime! LOL….darleen
