Sunday Again?

Whoaaaa! Did today seem like Sunday? And yesterday seemed like Sunday to me as well! And tomorrow is Sunday......it's like the movie "Ground Hog Day"!

The weather was beautiful today for it being the day after Christmas in Northwestern Pennsylvania......40 degrees and sunny. Gary and I took a ride to Pymatuning Lake in the afternoon. I love the color of icy water and with pretty swirling patterns in the winter.
Even though it was 40 degrees, it was pretty windy and you got cold really fast standing out by the water. Here Gary is giving me the "fake and I'm cold" smile. Yes, I was cold too!

The sunlight looked like a silvery path across the ice. See that grove of tall pine trees? It's a little island. I wish Gary and I could live there all summer long, wouldn't that be cool?!?!? Just hanging out crafting and boating and Gary could fish.
Seagulls in the foreground, tons of Canadian geese in the background!


Hmmmmm, what's going on in the studio? Looks like a little pair of pants with a belt that only Elvis would wear?
Handmade pom poms created from wool yarn. To get the dense, tight pom pom shape, I wet them in hot water then put them in a mesh bag and popped them in the dryer with a load of towels until they were dry. It fluffs the out and makes the fibers tight.
The beginning of a snowman or dog?
Somebody has been drinking a lot of iced tea! I'm working on a little project with the caps, they make a great bezel.

I like to lay stuff out around them and in them in order to get inspiration to see what I can create with them.
Hope you had a great Sunday.....er.....I mean Saturday!
