Alright, first off, crafting has been going really well! I got an Alchemy request on Etsy, so I'm making two father's day keychains and they're really pushing my limits a little, as I had to draw mermaids and now I get to carve and paint them! I'm excited to see how it turns out. Hopefully I won't disappoint!
I made a necklace based on the Mourning Cloak butterfly. :)
I also made another horse shoe.
So, I'm up for a ton of link exchanging! If you have blog links or myspace, facebook, shops, whatever, I'd be willing to exchange links, just comment here! My links are all on the side of this blog, check them out.

Two new dreamcatchers
Well I made a "SouthWest Turquoise" dreamcatcher with a vintage totem pole pin. Then, from my old jewelry from highschool I made a punk rock horse shoe!
I was apparently very creative.
Oh, and I've included an obligatory picture of my two ponies being cute together.
I think I may do a craft show in October, and I've joined two new Etsy teams, Etsy for Animals
and Etsy Honeybee Helpers (for Colony Collapse Disorder in the honeybee populations). Check out http://pollinators.org for more information on Colony Collapse. So, I will be raising money to help with animals and bees :). I'm also working to start a South East Arizona street team for Etsy.
If you want to search for Ecoetsy or Etsy for Animals items on Etsy.com just type in 'teamecoetsy' or 'team efa' into the search!

Jewelry, dreamcatchers and Knitting
I made a pair of celtic knotwork leather earrings, up above. I also made one more dreamcatcher with an old reused bolo tie for decoration. Montana Silversmith ;).
I also taught myself to cable!!!
I'm very excited about this.
Well, I have a hurt horse with an infected wound to take care of, so, I'm off.

More dreamcatchers
I need supplies...Mostly leather.
I've still been making the dreamcatchers.
Here are the two newest ones. The first one is a kid's theme.
The second one I did using old clip on earrings (the silver leaves)

My first horse shoe dreamcatcher
The newest dreamcatcher that I made. I also taught myself to crochet yesterday!
I don't have much to update on except some crafting here. I will have more pictures when I make more dreamcatchers.

Waiting until the move.
More nature photography. Again, all my crafting stuff is gone away.
I can't wait until I get employed, then I'm going to get a bunch of leather and supplies and make stuff!
