Surprise your Mom

Mothers day is coming up soon. I always get garden plants and flowers. Yes, I choose my own gifts. It's part of the fun to roam around the garden store.  If your Mom hasn't given you any hints, here are some ideas.

These garden markers are clear glass with cute fused veggies. They are pretty sturdy but I would bring them in if there is a late Spring hail storm. It has happened. A set of four is $30.00.

   

These fused pendants would be a unique gift for the lovely lady who gave you life. Be prepared for tears.

She would love this set of greeting cards from my series Women of Faith which are stained glass windows. The cards are printed on lovely linen paper that show the colors of the glass. They are $12.50 for 6 cards and envelopes.

I have star sun catchers that would look so nice in the kitchen window. She would think of you every time she looks outside. 

If you are still stumped, send me a message and we can come up with the perfect gift. 

Happy Mother's Day

We are all made of stardust

"We are stardust, we are golden, and we have to get ourselves back to the garden." Joni Mitchell sang the Crosby Stills and Nash song about going to Woodstock with pizzazz. I was taken by the phrase "We are stardust" because it is true. We really are made from billion year old carbon. I can lose myself while gazing up into the night sky just allowing myself to be a part of the universe and realizing all that is possible to learn. While exploring the meaning of life, the time of man and the what it means to get back to the garden,  I find myself designing all kinds of stars.
Just today I took a batch of mini stars out of the kiln. I love the variety of colors and the way they change as the heat melts them.
