Loving all things cranberry at the moment!

About Me
- Maryann
- I am very passionate about creating beautiful jewellery and art works in different mediums. I'm constantly evolving both in my designs and in my creativity. Jewellery designing and creating gives me a wonderful sense of achievement and satisfaction. Gardening gives me a physical and energetic satisfaction which I thoroughly enjoy also.These two pursuits are performed in between all the other day to day tasks, but usually special time is set aside when I really want to devote special energy to the creative process.Saying all this,I really do only what just comes naturally!

Garden treasure!
I have been longingly waiting for my crucifix orchid to flower for the first time because I initially planted this plant from a cutting a dear friend gave me many years ago.
I have been hoping the flowers would be a red shade (my favourite).
The plant produced amazing long tendrils of leafy growth over the last twelve months, but still no flowers.
About two months ago, early summer, I noticed one long,thin,leafless stem growing vertically from the middle of two leaves.
Could it be?????
My plant HAS flowered for the first time and my, what a beauty!
I even got what I hoped for......red flowers! And just look at their detail and delicacy......
My crucifix orchid.....
I always like to try and find one or two of my handcrafted jewellery pieces to 'connect' with my blog post. Here it is.....my red glass cross necklace which sold to a very eager young man at last Sunday's Craft Market.

Autumn
Browsing through some of my recent creations, I thought I'd show those few which have an Autumn leaning to them. This comes about by the use of colour, texture, evoking feelings and style.
Here is a sample.....
And finally, a touch of Mother Nature with her Autumn inspiration......

First fruits.....
Today I picked the first ripe figs from my White Atlantic fig tree! This is the first season the tree has borne fruit and the wait has certainly been worthwhile.
The flesh is strawberry red and tastes delicious!
Looking forward to the other twelve figs which are happily growing and ripening on this beautiful plant.

Dreaming.....
One day I will have my very own attic studio.
One day I hope these dreamy items will be housed in that studio for me to enjoy and instil further inspiration.....
