Another year of creating. Rita has spent this year creating a big variety of arts. Her main focus is on glass, but she enjoys cooking, gardening, knitting and sewing.
In the glass realm, she is always trying to learn new techniques and is always trying to come up with something new. This year she has been researching Christmas traditions and legends. Be sure to check out her Christmas spiders and read the story on the back of the box. The story has to do with the first tinsel on Christmas trees. This is an Eastern European legend. Also, check out the Christmas pickle!! This fun tradition comes from Germany.
Last, but not least grab yourself some of Rita's cake in a cup to use as stocking stuffers. They are delicious!!

unique jewelry that make great gifts.
Karen Skillett has been busy creating new items for the Holiday show! She has continued with her dotted Mandala stones, and has a great selection for Holiday gifting!
She also has many new jewelry pieces in her signature colored porcelain. Karen stacks colored clays, then slices through the cross section to reveal patterns. The technique requires careful planning and accidental surprise, resulting in one-of-a-kind jewelry. The fired porcelain is very hard and durable. The beads are combined with sterling silver to create the finished jewelry.
Focusing your attention on a beautiful garden full of whimsical garden art will reduce negative thoughts and make you feel better.
