Easter week I am presenting jewelry containing a lamb and fish. Might seem like a thought, but it isn't … unless it is a subconscious one …
I have never been one for practicing Christianity myself, in the sense of for instance regularly going to church, praying or reading the bible. I wouldn't call myself religious. Even so I do believe there was most probably a person called Jesus 2000 years ago, who was an extraordinary person in many ways. Like Gandhi, Mandela, Luther King, Mother Theresa and other great and real people in our history. Jesus was probably unusually extraordinary. And there have been times when I've found myself asking "What would Jesus have done in a situation like this?". I find him to be a great life guide. And the story of his life is ever so fascinating and inspiring.

Bracelet - Lisa Shaun
My daughter Arabella has a cuddly toy named Lisa Shaun (Shaun for surname since she is actually related to Shaun the Sheep … ). Lisa is soft, slouchy, extremely huggable, super cute, kind, caring and always there to give comfort for anyone in need of it. But she is also large. She can't be carried around everywhere. So when Rejetta Sellers recently showed us her latest design, an absolutely irresistible lamb/sheep bead in polymer clay, I knew I had to get one at once. And I've made this bracelet for Arabella. Now she can carry Lisa with her on the wrist at all times, for comfort when I am not around. The design is a result of a cooperation between Arabella and myself. The story is this: Lisa is in a field with purple flowers and under a bluish sky.
