Another blustery day up in the mountains... sunny but cold... Brrrr.
Today is general election day in the UK and it is an important day in terms of animal rights... The Conservative party (aka Tories) have promised to lift the hunting ban if they get elected into office and to say the least, this will be sorry news not only for the human race but especially for the beautiful foxes that will fall prey to cruel torture and deaths.
Annette from Dragon House of Yuen has written an excellent blog about it and as a talented curator of Etsy Treasuries, she has put together this fine presentation this morning, which included one of my newest creations:
JUST HORSiNG AROUND
This divine ooak vegan Brizel Handcraft's Silk Tapestry Box, made of handcrafted multicolor banana silk yarn in aqua blue, lavender & purple, is perfect for storing something precious !
LUCKY WOLF is a sweet gentle container, with a lid of its own, embellished with a vintage button: a carved style metal wolf head surrounded by a horseshoe motif... contoured by a luminescent blue grey rim.
A big THANK YOU to Annette for including the box in her beautifully put together treasury... and in return I am delighted to be able to display some of her beautiful blue toned items that I especially enjoy and are available for purchase in her shop... If you have never visited her Dragon House of Yuen store... DO when you have a moment !

ReplyDeleteThanks Nicole! I've been watching the election figures thru the night. Hoping for a labour victory (over the tories).
ReplyDeleteDid you watch the movie The age of Stupid? It was shocking - about what is happening and what Will happen if nothing is done.
