Cards and boxes
 Using handmade paper and found objects, I create one of a kind cards, envelopes and yes, even boxes. It is fun to see what I can come up with to delight the recipient of a gift. The card and box are part of the gift.

Jewelry

 Making jewelry for myself is very fun and rewarding. I especially like to make my own watchbands and have 4 or 5 watches with different bands to match my mood and my wardrobe. If I need something special to match a new outfit, I open my box of beads and create the special earring or pin to go with my new clothes.

Gardening & cooking

 I think Gardening and cooking go together. I love digging and planting and watching things grow. Of particular interest are herbs. I have some in the garden and some on the porch in pots for convenience. I might mention here that I am an excellent cook and I love to add the fresh flavors of herbs from my garden.
