Metal Etched Wind Chime.

I will be teaching a metal etched wind chime on June 2 at www.coastcollective.ca
It will be super fun. Learn how to etch metal, then  make a whimsical one of a kind wind chime.
A perfect garden charm for the summer.

20 Steps Outside My Door.

I am not sure where I got this little wicker bike but I think it's cute. It sits on my front porch on an old chair. Both are quite weathered but have lots of character.
