  12. The icebowl is so easy to make & any kind of flower can be used. As a jewelry designer, everything is about details & fineness...it translates to every area & sometimes can drive one quite round the bend. xx's

Please know how much I value your comments. I read every single one and do hope you will take the time to leave your thoughts. I think InstaGram with the Emojis have taken a lot away from blogging, but I love IG too.
