Dali Ti - reversible
This pendant design is inspired by the surreal paintings of Salvador Dali, known for including real objects doing unreal things. My favorite is his melting clocks. I love the flow of this piece it has soft curves and the melting quality of Dali’s painting. When you wear it may lives troubles melt away.
The titanium in this piece is so dynamic on the front and back; it just had to be incorporated into a reversible pendant.

Tiny Habitats
I’ve been growing a patch of Johnny Jump Ups for years. It is very sparce, it never gets bigger, and the colorful tiny flowers never seemed to like the shady spot I chose.

Blossoms for Dinner
These are blossoms to my husband Chris’s squash plants. He heard they could be batter dipped and fried, yum. However, you must pick them early in the day while still open. Chris picked some and put them in the frigerator for later. Meanwhile they closed. The next morning after he took them out, the flowers reopened and a cute little visitor (the little guy on the leaf) flew out. Ha, he was in the frigerator the whole night long..... I guess we both had plans to eat the blossoms.

Tooth Fairy
When your tooth starts to wiggle,
wobble, and shake,
Put me around your neck and
patiently we’ll wait.
When your tooth falls out,
I’ll hold it for you.
We’ll show your parents, friends,
and teachers too.
At night it will get dark and time to sleep,
So put me under your pillow eyes shut tight, please don’t peek.
The tooth I will fly to my home in the sky,
Where I’ll build the fairy kingdom,
build it up high.
Glistening bright with porcelain teeth,
My castle grows bigger thanks to
the children I meet.
In return, I will give you a coin or two.
Good - bye, see you later I hope to
come back soon!
I got the inspiration to make this little pendant from a picture I used to draw on my
children's envelopes when the tooth fairy
would visit them.
