everything about Deb Christensen’s surprise package to me recently charmed the socks right off me…
she had me with her fish tail magic islands card…
and goodies galore…
her fresh water pearl and delicate sea glass necklace is beyond beautiful with its pretty silver chain…
I put it on right away…as I just happened to be wearing a pair of green sea glass earrings I got some years ago…
they are in no way as delicate as Deb’s jewelry creations…
a glass vial of fresh water pearls she carefully tucked in reminded me of mermaid’s tears…
or precious babies teeth…so very sweet…
the last packet of treasures I opened totally wowed me too…
how kind and generous of Deb to share some of her treasure trove of perfect rust and patina with me…
with touches of salt and sea and time spent on Alaskan shores…
a place I have only dreamed of…
if you have not yet had a chance to see the fish tail creations she’s made the last several years for a Kodiak Alaska Community Art Auction…you’ll definitely want to take some time to check them out here…
each one is a marvel…
be prepared to get sidetracked by her photography…storytelling and art posts…with SO much to enjoy!
Deb is a mixed media artist extraordinaire…
when I visit her blog and read about her life I am always entranced and feel richer and happier for it…
she’s a great cook and does that professionally in a really special setting each summer…
her absence in blogland for those months always makes my heart grow fonder awaiting her return…
BIG Yay for blog friends and art mail and wonderful surprises!!!
“i hope when you wear the necklace you will feel our misty cool sea breezes and smell the green cucumbery smell of the beaches!” ~Deb Christensen, Dy-ing to be yours
thank you dear Deb for sharing your talents…your art and your heart…it is people like you that help make blogland such a great place to be!!!
