Cribbage Anyone?

I grew up listening to my parents, especially my dad, playing cribbage.  I had heard 15-2, 15-4, 15-6, and a pair for 8 about 1,000 times before I knew what it was.

Meet Michael!

 The creator of LARGE cribbage boards.   These were 30" long!


And had some hefty pins!


I liked these a lot.  I may need to take up playing cribbage again!

But, he also made crayon holders that were awesome!

Ammo Jewelry


Meet Terri from Retro DeNovo Jewelry




Want a very cool necklace made from spent ammunition?  Here is the base of a shotgun shell made into a necklace.
 

And, if you fancy handgun ammo jewelry, I believe these were earrings.     Not the spent 45 Colt brass!

This was very cool.   Thanks Teri!

Bailey's WireBugs!

Meet Kelly of Bailey's WireBugs!

She and her husband were the creative genius behind the creation of small sculpture made of wire.


Take a look!   First, I thought the display was wonderful.  It was a great combination of color that caught my eye.


And, now for a couple of close ups of the wire insects.   Very cool.  Wire....pliers...and whatever else it takes to bend it into a shape.

Add a polished rock and a foam ball....


Or a bobber!
Very cool indeed!   I am continually amazed at how creative some people are. 

Thanks Kelly!

River Fest: Metal Sculpture

I am always amazed and how artistic people can see "things" out of stuff that you may find in your garage.






I really liked his work.   Thanks Doug! 
Yes, I know...no portrait of you!   But, thanks for letting me take photos of your work!

River Fest: Very Cool Braclets and Necklaces

Meet Phyllis!
 

 

She had the coolest bracelets and necklaces.  Take a look.


I thought these were just stunning works of art.  


Then, I saw this:


Yes...buttons.  But, not just any buttons.  These were her grandmothers buttons and they are 109 years old. 

VERY cool.

Thanks Phyllis!

River Fest: Weaving

Meet Jeri!


I must admit that I haven't had much interest in weaving as an art form.   But, Jeri does!

Weaves with sticks, wire, and beads!




I guess I don't know anything about this.  But, I did like the patterns quite a lot.

Thanks Jeri!
