One of the scattered severe thunderstorms rages by the house and knocks over a bradford pear. We couldn't get in our side door, the one we use most often.

The kids wanted to help with the clean-up.

Sunday morning, I took the kids to church. By 1pm on Sunday, our neighbors had come over and cleared almost all of the tree up for us. We have such nice neighbors!
(No, those are not all my kids.)
In the studio, I'm starting to experiment with flower forms. My first flower reminded me very much of the little red poppies from the Salvation Army's fall fundraiser. I turned it into a pendant and have it up for sale in my Etsy shop. The photos link to the listing details.
I had a rugosa rose in mind. I am thinking that in metal, I may have to go for a more classic rose look. A rugosa rose style may always look more like a poppy when it's in metal forms.
Back to the workbench for some more experimenting. Yes, of course I could follow a pattern, but it's much more fun to explore on my own.
