Saint Dwynwen's Keep

Littlest Angels

2009-04-03T13:01:00.000-07:00

I've been making an assortment of these earrings in a variety of colors. It's great fun looking for different colored beads to use!

I think that different beads give each little angel a different personality.

This set is called "Celtic Spirit." I made it in honor of St. Patrick's Day, I have just finished this set... a necklace and a matching pair of earrings.

I am keeping this for myself, but it can be re-created if anyone is interested. I am particularly fond of the cross as it remsembles one worn in a picture of Saint Dwynwen!

In the spirit of this impending Autumn, I made this necklace. The pictures do not do it justice! It' glows and is warm... it reminds me of God's light, which is always shining, showing us the way!

Twighlight's Acorn

2008-10-10T13:59:00.001-07:00

This is going to be a gift for my sister. Her birthday is later this month. Acorns are significant to us because we grew up in a town that has a gazillion oak trees. The high school yearbook is called "The Acorn" and we all have acorn ornaments that hang on our Christmas Trees. Her 30th reunion is coming up at Thanksgiving, and when I saw these colors, and the Acorn, I decided to make this necklace for her. I hope she llikes it. It came out really well!

The Land of St. Dwynwen

St. Dwynwen came from Wales, specifically, LLanddwyn Island. I have never been blessed to have visited, but it is on my "someday list of places to visit". I was surfing around, killing time that I don't have, and I found these most stunning photographs of LLanddwyn Island. I find this place to be beautiful, breathtakingly so... it's dramatic and wild, desolate and passionate. I hope you'll enjoy the photographer's beautiful work.
