Happy Mother's Day to All the Mothers in the World





I look forward to Mother's Day as a time to give back a little something to my mom. Over the years, for her birthday or Mother's Day I have tried to give something very unique. I thought I would share a few of the items to also tell the story of what a unique individual she is. One year I created a Heart that opened up and it says inside "All you need is love." This was because she gave me her time, her love and her attention when I was healing from surgery a few years back.
Another year, she had seen a sculpture that she like by an artist named Robert Kerr. It was called a Woman in Bondage. I didn't like the idea of a woman in bondage, so I made a woman with wings who could fly away whenever she wanted to.
A few years back she wanted an animal totem necklace because of her affinity with animals. She has always taken in animals that someone else had cast aside. She has rescued several German Sheppards, parrots, cockatiels, stray cats and a few fish. I combined the fetishes with seraphinite because of it's angelic associations. And she is a true angel to almost everyone she meets.
So here's to all the special Moms out their and the daughters who love them.
