Hello All,
Well yesterday in the middle of TWO birthday parties and basketball practice I found a wonderful box full of calm sitting by my door. Spotnik was so very sweet with all that she did. I love everything so much, AND she did it all while being very sick. I really am touched that you worked so hard while dealing with so much. Thank you, very much.

So with out further ado...here are all of my goodies...

First a BEAUTIFUL hand painted box with the three jewels of Buddha on it.

The inside is a really pretty gold


Then a purse that I LOVE so much, the colors and the stitching are so cool. This is exactly my style and it will be with me this week.


Then she etched these really hip candle holders with the Ohm symbol on them. aaahhhh. These are really beautiful you did a great job !!


A REALLY pretty offering bowl that she hand painted a lotus rim on. I wish I could have captured the depth of the glass in the bowl, it is just a really pretty kind of glass.


Then this is probably my favorite thing that she sent !! I hope she has a really good picture because try as I might I sure couldn't get a really cool one. As modeled my daughter a beautiful sterling silver and amethyst ear cuff !!


Then finally last but not least a BEAUTIFUL bracelet made with gemstones. You can see the list of them in the picture. She really spoiled me with the bling.   This is so pretty and got put on the moment after these pictures were taken. Again Spotnik if you have a good picture please post it. I could not get a good picture of all the colors.


Thank you so much Spotnik for all that you did. I love everything but the bracelet and the ear cuff are so spot on. You were so very sweet to get to know my taste and do so much.
Namaste

Hey guys, tres lovely packages, i feel inspired to make jewelery now - I'm about to check but has everyones stuff had pictures posted? Somethings you maybe couldn't find when you took pics etc? I've been away for 2 weeks, I'm back home - got off the plane a couple of hours ago, and about to update what hasn't been done, it appears we only have one flaker, americagothic, so I will put out the call for and angel for her partner, ariaya, once I finish reading how, thanks for a great swap everyone.

On a side note and kinda related, I just saw Jeff Martin, formerly of the band - The Tea Party, playing lot's of beautiful eastern instruments and telling stories about his times spent in eastern lands.

Welcome back globox!!

Tero - I was in such a hurry to get your package out that I neglected to take pictures.    I am SO glad you like everything.  You were so much fun to craft for.

I'm sorry I'm so late posting my pictures, but here's the swap I got from my angel!

There's a great incense holder for stick incense (now full), a beautiful ying-yang pentacle (already on my altar), a beautiful elemental altar cloth and a bag of lovely salts!



Thank you so much jungianwanderer!!
