Morning all!

Fall is here. Almost time to add hot cocoa to the morning line up of breakfast beverages.

This morning though only coffee to offer so help yourselves.

I've been busy with various art projects plus making moccasins.

Did get one project finished. This is my Native music rattle that I made. There is a smaller one that I haven't started with but this one took nearly a year to complete, from start to finish.

The bead work around the leather grip and feather work (courtesy of my flock of roosters) isn't visible in the pic. The handle is hickory that was harvested from our forest earlier in the spring. I grew the gourd myself and planted more this year.

They are the only thing that has done well in my garden this year. Did a 'gourd count' over the weekend and so far I've found 20. I'm going to be busy making bird houses and more rattles in the future.
