Feltmeup Designs (Art I like)

It is a box of birds.

Morgan here---I follow several artist's blogs. One of which is the blog of Melanie Ann Green, the woman behind Feltmeup Designs. Today, she talking about completing an order for a shop, and she posted this picture. Ain't they cute? So many birdies!

I stumbled across her work work through other blog. I believe that it was through Confessions of a Pagan Soccer Mom, but I am not sure.

I do know why I started to follow Melanie's posts---I love her owls.

I just love owls---especially felt owls,

Ain't her owls cute? And if you want to buy one, Melanie has an Etsy shop, The Felt Menagerie, where you can buy as many little felt birdies as your little heart desires.

Blue star pendants

Ocean blue star pendants with stone bead (left with lapis, right with jasper sapphire).

Was busy taking and editing jewelry photos this weekend. Two of the pieces I was taking pictures of were these two ocean blue porcelain pendants. These are not new items; the photos were to replace some pictures that I was not happy with. As my skill as a photpgrapher has increased, the less happy I am with my earlier photos---go figure. Besides these star pendants, I was also taking pictures of new items (dragonfly necklace, bead bracelet, a pair of earrings) that are now available on the Etsy shop.---MDE

20th Annual Witches Ball

Are you ready for the Witches Ball?

It is just 28 days until the 20th annual Witches Ball and midnight Samhain ritual. This year it is being held on Saturday, October 29th 2011. This year's Witches Ball is being held at the Highlands Masonic Center, 3550 Federal Boulevard, Denver Colorado.

Tickets prices are $20 for adults at the door, and $5 for children 12 and under.

This year, the live music will include Mythica, Tuatha, Pandora Celtica, and the Orpheus Choir. There will also be the costume contest, trance drumming and dancing, and children activities (until 8 pm for the latter).

And of course, there will be psychic readers and merchants. Celtic Soul Jewelry and Pottery will be one of the vendors, and we will be sharing booth space with a friend of ours, Capital City Holistic Health, who will be selling bath salts and lotions (I believe).

I, Morgan, will be there as general pack-mule and gofer. I may or may not be handcuffed to my goddaughter depending upon her and my behavior. Please bring us some candy when you visit the booth---we promise to be good.
