Blog Hop Day 4

Dark Olivine!
I love this palette because it is a perfect neutral for so many other colors. I am off to teach workshops this morning, so I will keep it short. I learned that many people prefer not to have their email address on a public blog. So, I will announce the winner's name on December 15th's blog and give you 24 ours to email me so I can get an address to send your package to. All of my contact info is on my website.
Dark Olivine! My favorite neutral palette!

My dog Jasmine before she went to the groomers. Jasmine is a German Wire Haird Pointer. That hair can be styled without hair products due to it's wiry nature. Especially when it is dirty, LOL! She has a shorter haircut now. The long hair was falling into her eyes most of the time!

Meanwhile, out in the back yard, my pink roses are in full bloom!

Rose Bush Blooms in December!

 Have a wonderful Saturday everyone!

  2. I'd say Jasmie was due for a little grooming treat! though she looked quite cute in her before pic too!

    I too loved seeing your rose on this dismal cold day here in NY.

  3. Now that's what I call a bad hair day! Why can't I look so cute with messy hair?

  4. Love Jasmine. My hair does the same thing but hasn't the body to be styled. Nice bead selection.

    Olivine is definitly my color. To see a picture of a rose is warm feeling since it is 20 degrees in Alaska.

  7. Those olivine shades are among my favorites too - I made a beaded bracelet last year with an olivine base and I am amazed at the number of things I can wear it with!

  12. I think I love this color selection the best so far! I love olive greens! And those opalescent looking olive green crystal cabs look simply irresistable! And that Swarovski Square...beautiful! Excellent choices!

    And Jasmine's hair looks very much like my husband's hair when he wakes up in the morning! Haha...very cute and endearing!

    Thanks for the pretty pictures and enjoy your workshops!

  17. Olivine is not my first colour of choice, but I love the 'earthy' feeling of it and it can be combined with so many other colour pallettes.

    So again, I would like to be included in the draw, thanx!!!
