Rattlesnake Necklace

Here is something I made just for myself. The center piece is made from a real rattlesnake tail, and the beads are of bone, turquoise, and small white beads. Soon to come, a pair of earrings.

crochet works

These are more of a hobby. A bit of crochet on the side while I watch TV or a movie. Usually at night to relax. So far this is what I have accomplished.

A collection of my things. Three scarfs and two full afghans

My first afghan. Big enough to cover one person

Aroma Dolls

These odd looking things are key chains. They were first made by me and a friend years ago. I updated them by changing the filling and design. They are made with scrap fabrics. The fabric on the back is different than the front. They are filled with flax seed, herbs (these are lavender), and a few drops of essential oil to make a stronger smell.
