Hope to see everyone there!!

{Jordon+Mary}

Last weekend I went to St.George to help with my nephew's open-house/reception, it was really fun... 

I loved the colors Mary picked! 

I just thought I would post a few pictures to show you how it turned out....

What a cute couple they are!  I got to know Mary a little better, not only is she gorgeous, she is so fun and down to earth.  I know her in-laws adore her! Jordon is a lucky guy...

For their open-house they had an ice-cream topping bar.... with four flavors of ice-cream & all kinds of amazing toppings, including some unusual ones.... yogurt covered pop rocks??? {you wouldn't think so, but seriously good!}

The guests were invited to take a cake-pop as a thank-you.  I thought they turned out really cute! Email me {if you are planning your event in the St.George area},if you would like the information for who made them... she did a great job.

We made aprons in Mary's colors for all the servers to wear.  The girl's were given the aprons as a thank you gift for helping.  I made a copycat version of the Anthropologie Tea-And-Crumpets Apron , {I'll post the tutorial next week}.  They are fun to make and would make cute Christmas gifts.

A few shots before the rain....

The girls and I wanted to do a bohemian shoot yesterday.  We got all set up and took a few shots...  {notice the sky}

The sky gets progressively worse...

{I, of course, don't notice}

Cutie {Laren} waiting her turn....

Love this spot {my backyard}... easy to get to and has lots of old stuff, haha!

I would tell people I was making a teepee and they would look at me like I was a freak & say "Whhhyyyy??" or "What the crap for??"  In my slightly skewed mind I would think "Who DOESN'T want a teepee!" Hello... it just seemed like a no brainer to me, haha!

You can find the instructions from Sunset Magazine here if you are also a freak and feel the need to have one of your own...

Back to the darkening sky....

Loving the combination of clouds, light, and red cliffs... My husband took these pics with his iphone, pretty amazing how they turned out!

This was the last pic we took before we had to grab the teepee {I wasn't leaving it!} and run for the house!

I had lots of fun shots planned, but I will save them for another day.... we had so much fun and the girl's were such good sports {they still let me dress them up}.

You can preview some of the pics here .

January Thaw.....

Sorry it's been so long since we have posted!  We have been having too much fun and not working at all on jewelry.  We are working on some new things that we hope to be posting soon.  Winter has been so awful all over the country... but we have been fortunate to have some unusually beautiful weather here!  I know we are some of the few.  We took advantage of the sun this last weekend and got out for a little ride in our back yard!    Here are a few of the photos...
