I commissioned a Lynn original! My homecare worker just had a birthday, and I wanted something just perfect for her. So naturally, I called Lynn, since she sort of specializes in 'just perfect'. She certainly did the job - look at this: 
Here's another shot. I put sunflower petals behind it so you can see the detail a bit better: 
I heart Lynn. I really heart this necklace! |

Oh!
Sorry - they didn't load the first time I looked at this. Didn't even seem to be trying.
I thought you'd accidentally left them out.

Ack, they're huge!! 
It's a fun necklace, and I seriously had told someone that I was keeping this one for me because I liked it so much. So Cindy calls me, needs a gift and describes her friend. I told her about the necklace, said I could do something like it, sent her a photo and she declared it perfect. So much for a necklace for me! Off to Canada it went. 
Did you give it to her yet? I want a photo of her wearing it.

She's on her way over right now - I can't wait!
And yes, those are huge. I seriously don't get photos and uploading them. Sometimes, they are smaller but get bigger if you click them. Sometimes they are too small to see. Sometimes, they are larger than life size. I need a personal assistant. |

Lynn, after Nina stopped squealing and jumping up and down, she wants to know what that stone is? |

I didn't notice the cat hair until you mentioned it because I was so busy admiring Lynn's work.

The stone is Ruby Zoisite. The reddish stuff embedded in the green is real ruby.  Nice stuff. I love it and have a bunch in different cuts.

I wear my Lynn Bracelet all the time, constantly wishing I'd gotten Lynn earrings to match. My mom wears the ladybug bracelet you made so often the clasp broke. |

I have never seen the ladybug bracelet. Nor the one you made Leslie. Harrumph. I love seeing jewelry.
Which reminds me... I'll need to take a pic of the MIL's when I'm there. If I'm sober. |

Pippa! Maybe the photos would be better if you weren't. That was a pretty funny story, actually. It was supposed to be a surprise, but FIL didn't "get it" so MIL got to design her own bracelet (which is probably fine...it wasn't the style I would have chosen!)
I'll see if I have photos of the Leslie bracelet still....not sure about the ladybug one. I lost a lot out of my gallery when I forgot to renew my premium membership.
