Terry Perkinson "Sleepy Bunny" at the Joyful Jewel 4-15-14

"Sleepy Bunny"

Terry Perkinson

~ 7" x 14", Cashmere, Batik Cotton, Wool Scraps and Misc. fibers

$52

Cashmere soft and ever-so cudly this bunny by Terry Perkinson could be named "Sweet Bunny" -- or the name she gave it "Sleepy Bunny" so he could help you get quickly to cottony dreamland.  Sleepy gives you his heart, as do all of Terry's animals.  He is easy to hold on to for very small hands and safe for them as well since everything is very securely sewn.  Happy Easter.

Jan Dunn "Feather Your Nest Basket" at the Joyful Jewel 5-26-13

"Feather Your Nest Basket"

Jan Dunn

Hand Dyed Basket Reed, ~ 4" x 5" + hanging handle

$15

          This sweet little basket that Jan Dunn imagined and then created is one of my very favorite things at the Joyful Jewel!  I'll be saving shed cat hair and dryer lint for Jan's next round of Feather Your Next Baskets.  Jan says, "Birds (chickadees, titmice) appreciate fine materials to line their nests with such as pet hair, yarn, thread, string, cotton batting, dryer lint.  In the sprint, fill the basket with any of these materials and hang on a tree limb several feet off the ground -- near a nest box, if you have one.  The birds will thank you!"

          What fun it will be to see who comes to remove the materials and carry them off.  Watch closely and you may discover where the nest is hidden, and which nestlings will grow up inside it comforted within by this softness.

Brooksie Edwards "Green Fused Glass Plate" at the Joyful Jewel 5-14-13

"Fused Glass Plate - Green"

Cathy "Brooksie" Edwards

Fused Glass, ~ 8 1/2" Square

$42

           This stunning fused glass plate bye Brooksie Edwards seems to shine from within.  She's used iridescent glass and adorned it with spiral designs and geometrics.  I love seeing the plate displayed on a stand, but it certainly would look great against a white table cloth with it's generous beauty revealed as the dates and figs on it are lifted off of it to eat.

           Brooksie says, "Listening to my soul has brought me to the awakening of my artist self. Starting out as a musician on my path then led me to the art form of fused glass. I love being able to combine design with color. Like life, the rough edges smooth and the layers get integrated. There is structure with the opportunity of expansiveness. "
