My Mom's Liberty


My mother used to have a navy blue and white kitchen with dark red accents. To me it is a strange combination and something I myself would never do. My mother can pull this off with panache.
I have always thought she is a class act. Her house is and has always been beautiful and reminds me of home decorating magazines.
She can also make my jewelry look amazing by putting together a whole ensemble to frame the pieces I make.
I made this Liberty for her many, many years ago. It is also one of my favorite pieces.

I am sorry this picture is so bad, but it is all I have.

I have loved and admired both of these ladies , liberty and my mother, and what they portray to me, for many, many years.

I love it Marie. I love the patriotic colors.

Well, not having a computer in blogland is like being castrated.
