HELLO 2014 HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE

Dec. 2013 Front Yard with Charlie and Lucie

Early December 2013 an Alaskan cold front dipped down into Northern California. This was our front yard...6 inches of the cold white snow over night.
Makes for a beautiful photo...also deep creeping cold. Due to the low temperatures for the next week or so, it stayed around for over 2 weeks in shaded patches. My bones really felt that cold and it was hard for me to get around.

  Now that 2013 is coming to a close it is time again to announce our annual sale.  Etsy Store: www.wearablemetalartjfh.etsy.com      USE COUPON CODE: SALE2013

    As I am writing this, Jerry is recuperating from foot surgery. He had been putting off the needed surgery for several months. Mainly because I need help most of the time to get around now. And of course to finish up the last of the 2013 holiday show festivals. His doctor said today that all is progressing fine. Should be another 2 weeks before he can walk with his Christmas present from his doctor. A pretty black boot with Velcro straps.

Hello Everyone.....

   As you know it has been a long time since we last wrote a post to our blog. We really do not want to loose our extend family and friends. I just had much going on in my life for me to write. For that I am sorry.

  Now for a brief update on us.....

 

 Just a couple days before Christmas 2012 we got a our first snow storm in 7 years. I know, I am just a kid at heart....I was so excited that I filled my memory card up with photos! 

 But I remembered fast when the cold creep  into my bones that it is great look OUT at it from a warm home.

     Jerry's view coming up to our gate upon returning from Redding. This ended up being the heaviest snow fall in a long time. But....didn't stay around long, as the snow turned to rain that night melting away the snow ;(

 

 

  Come January and February each year I am working on the years' festival applications. As always it is a time consuming task and a puzzle of which festival(s) would be best to apply for. Our schedule should be similar to last year, if accepted to the festivals we have applied. The jury selection is done each year by the festival committee panel.  I will be posting each confirmation as received, then when all the acceptance confirmations are received near mid April we will post our entire Spring  Festival schedule.  We are looking forward to seeing each of you in the near future at the festivals.

   As things are shaping up Jerry may be doing some of the years' festivals alone. As my health issues are limiting my ability to get around. I will be keeping our ETSY STORE up with new postings as much as possible. We are hoping that it will make it easier for you to shop. As for custom work, it will be only done as time permits and I am able to work on the bench. I am hoping that later in the year I will be up to doing much more. 

   Jerry designed and made some new RINGS that were very popular late last fall. He will be doing more of these in similar design format. Plus more new designs that he has been putting together.

 I am sketching up new designs too, between the two of us we plan to have a whole new group of exciting pieces for you to see at our spring festivals.

 I am going to post previews here as they are finished.

So till next time....Fond Regards
