Montana Grasses


When I was a kid, roaming around the prairies of Montana, the seeds of this grass would catch in my socks and jeans. Then, I called it wire grass, and I hated the stuff.

Now, I find myself lost in the beauty of the graceful shapes of these wiry seeds...

Beautiful Hand Painted Emu Egg Butterfly Jewelry Box


This butterfly jewelry box was created using an Emu egg that measures about 5 1/2" tall and 10 1/2" around the fattest circumference. The egg has a beautiful horizontal straight cut and opens to reveal a fabric lining and an inside area that can hold quite a bit of jewelry. Refer to the photo of my wedding ring inside, this will give you an idea of the real size.The butterfly was handpainted against a beautiful soft background of lt green, pink & white. I've used lots of Swarovski crystals on this piece, clear & green, to represent the centers of each flower. The crystals really give it a great shimmery look. The shell of this egg is very thick and sturdy and is a beautiful black/green in color. The Emu box comes with a solid wooden stand, that holds the box very firmly.
