BH Downtown Crossing Gallery
I've been gearing up for the Boston Handmade Downtown Gallery! Making lots of stuff!
Here is a peek at what I've been up to.
And a sneak peek of 16 very dirty unfinished pendants ready to go in the tumbler to clean up, shine up and harden.
Bails and chains or cords will finish these off, but you won't see those unless you come on down to the downtown gallery!
Along with these pendants, I'll be offering bracelets, earrings, rings and other necklaces/pendants all made from sterling silver and made by hand. Boy, my hands are sore.
We open up on Black Friday, November 27th. Please come by if you are in the area!
505 Washington Street, Downtown Crossing, Boston...right between West and Temple Place.

Watercolor Cowboy
Custom Art Framing and Gallery 9 is hosting a gallery opening for Don Weller on Friday night October 30th from 6 - 8pm (Tonight!).
I have a copy of this magazine from 1975 framed in my kitchen. Blast from the '70s!
Don is a celebrated illustrator, art director, graphic designer and cowboy. He spent years as an art teacher for Colleges and Universities in California, Arizona, Utah, Texas, and Washington State. Over the years, he has done covers for TV Guide, Time Magazine, posters for the Hollywood Bowl, the 1984 LA Olympics, and the NFL to name a few.
Currently he raises Cutting Horses in his ranch high up in the mountains in Oakley, Utah, while continuing to produce amazing artwork. His style has changed over the years, but there is always something familiar in his artwork that tells you it is his.
Don recently published his newest book of western inspired watercolors titled Watercolor Cowboys .
I am very close to this artist, he is my father.
If you are around the Norwood area on Friday, October 30th, please stop by and have a glass of wine with us.

Norwood Day.
Saturday was Norwood Day. A huge celebration in the center of town.
I think I learned a lesson here...make sure my white balance is set to the current lighting. These pictures are horrible. The lighting is totally off.
When I finally realized that this was my problem, I took a few good pictures.
Mom had a great time, you can see her in the last picture chatting with Kathy. More pictures of Mom at Norwood day can be found on 1redbead.

My new friend Elizabeth
Meet my new friend Elizabeth. Tiny baby, sweet smelling, long toed, kung fu gripped Elizabeth.
I had the pleasure of hanging out with her for a bit today. She slept mostly. I even picked her up and she still slept. I think she was even sleeping while she was squeezing my index finger.
What perfect little fingers!
Modeling a very nice binki and a nancyrosetta necklace that her mom Kim draped around her head.
What a perfect little angel!

Update for a neglected blog
A lot has been going on in nancyrosettaville.
Hubby had knee surgery but is recovering nicely. Arthroscopic to be exact. We even have a DVD of the inside of the knee parts of the surgery, and the surgeon actually narrates the footage as he is talking to Scott. It's pretty cool. Scott is doing very well. He only used crutches for a few hours, then on to a cane for a day. Really an amazing recovery.
Mom continues to be a part time job for me. I visit her as much as I can, and have recently been having more pleasant visits, she is doing better in some aspects and worse in others. I have been dealing with her personal/financial issues as well, they had started to take a toll on me, but I think things are beginning to settle, at least I hope that is the case.
Rusty has started to bark at me when I sit on the couch. It's only been about a week of this new nonsense. I am not usually afraid of him when he does this, but the last couple of days, his breath with the barks have left my hair standing on end. The shock collar* seems to stop this behavior, we don't even have to use the electric part of it, just putting it on him does the trick. (*we only use the sound part...not the shock part)
There's the quick update.
