A little Art Nouveau, a little Art Deco.

One of four new pairs he finished today, in addition to a new pendant [that is going to be a full necklace, and he still has string the beads tomorrow, so no photos of that yet]. This pair is amazing: a little Art Nouveau, a little Art Deco, and those stones . . . . 

I'm hoping to have the earrings up yet tonight, but as late as it is, it's not looking promising. Once again, late with everything. Because absolutely everything else takes precedence, and I'm so freaking tired. 

So I'm not caught up on housework, taxes, OR sales. Which is not good, because we still have to bring in sales weekly to break even. To that end, links are here:

• Sales here; 
• Testimonials here; 
• Amazon wishlist here [priorities are the LaminaSaver, because apparently Miika's out of it again; and the rugs, to replace those destroyed 2 years ago by the leachfield collapse and ensuing septic disaster];
• Patreon here;
• Ko-fi here.

And we do still need to make those regular weekly sales, so please share all of the links. We really do need to get this year onto a better footing than the last two, and so far, it's been pretty grim.

Red Willow Spirit: The Constant Flame

Photo copyright Aji, 22026; all rights reserved.

Now posted at The NDN Silver Blog, it's an edition of Red Willow Spirit for cold days and hard times, when spring arrives too soon and trickster winds make it feel like winter still. It's two images linked by a single new work of wearable art, reminders, all, of the constant flame that warms and illuminates and heals, that makes us brave and keeps strong and committed to the work of truth.

The post is here. Wings's main page is here. Inquiries via the site's Contact form. It's March, taxes around the corner, and we need to get caught up. That begins with a minimum of one sale a week, without fail.

More work in progress.

More work in progress. This one's going to be a pendant, he thinks: Petoskey stone, which is a specific form of fossilized coral found in my own homelands.  It's gorgeous cab, too.

Four pairs of earrings coming tomorrow:  small silver feathers; rose quartz big ovals; matched pair of deep blue turquoise, looks like probably the more recent Turquoise Mountain material; and those gorgeous Edwardian-filigree-looking ocean jasper dagger marquise-cuts.

Meanwhile, I'm drowning in paperwork and other nonsense.

And as I said yesterday, once again, new month, and here I am, late with everything. Because absolutely everything else takes precedence, and I'm so freaking tired. Of everything. Mostly of assholes. So I'm not caught up on housework, taxes, OR sales. Which is not good, because we still have to bring in sales weekly to break even. To that end, links are here:

Monday Photo Meditation: At the Fire's Heart

Now posted at The NDN Silver Blog, it's a Monday Photo Meditation for days when warmth and light are needed, and a heart on fire with the resolve to do what's required of us. It's an image that dates back one year almost to the very day, a message reminding us of the medicine, the life, the love at the fire's heart.

Rockin'.

Look at that:  It looks like one of those old fin-de-siècle [the previous one, I mean] ornate mirror frames.

What it is is an earring bezel. The other one is stamped but not saw-cut yet. They'll hold dagger-size marquise cabochons of ocean jasper, bands of ivory and peach and forest green.

He's been rockin' in the studio, despite the limited amount of time he's had in it. the new hummingbird earrings that I don't have live yet, plus four additional pairs, plus three pendants.  All likely to be done sometime this week.

But once again, March first, new month, and here I am, late with everything. Because absolutely everything else takes precedence, and I'm so freaking tired. Of everything. Mostly of assholes. So I'm not caught up on housework, taxes, OR sales. Which is not good, because we still have to bring in sales weekly to break even. To that end, links are here:

A Spiral of Flame and Sparks and Smoke

Now posted at The NDN Silver Blog, it's a work to stave off the late-winter cold and dark, one for the gifts of the torch's flame and its cortex of power and beauty. It's one of the newer entries in Wings's signature series of coil bracelets, this one manifest in a spiral of flame and sparks and smoke.

The end of winter.

Photo copyright Aji, 2026; all rights reserved.

February 28th. Last day of the month; last day of meteorological winter. 

Felt like the end of winter, too, or, more accurately, that winter ended a long time ago. Mid-seventies today, all shirt sleeves and no jackets. No wind to speak of, either, so it was beautiful.

And terrifying.

But as deadly as conditions are, we got a beautiful sunset out of it tonight, and that's what the northeastern sky looked like, with a not-quite-full Bear Moon rising. 

Another day spent otherwise than what I had planned, so I'm not caught up on housework, taxes, OR sales. Which is not good, because we still have to bring in sales weekly to break even. To that end, links are here:
