A huge thank you to each and everyone

Sounds of the sea driftwood chimes . . .

As we walk the shorelines along balmy seas or stormy waves
 we keep a wary eye open for treasures thrown up from the deep.

I collect these offerings take them home to my studio
 "Shades of the sea " are the creations I make from my findings.
Driftwood & shell chimes with delicate coloured ribbons

As the breeze catches a chime you can hear a delicate noise
the song of the shells, bringing thoughts of the wonderful ocean to mind
and as the mobile moves, its individual pieces shift & change about,
forming mesmerising sculptural shapes.

You can find my driftwood chimes for sale here & here

 or read about my beach combing adventures, treasures found

and other seaside loveliness here

Celtic Blessing Tree give-away . . .

"Celtic Blessing Tree"

As promised a give-away  as a thank you to all my lovely followers.

I have here sat in my studio an A4 print of my newest creation

"Celtic Blessing Tree"  to give to some lovely reader.

You can read more about the give-away on my personal blog
 "5 Precious things"

* * *
Written around the tree is the Celtic Irish blessing "Deep Peace"
 So, to enter I thought it would be lovely to hear
your thoughts on what brings you "Peace". . . .

For me is is being out in Mother nature,

walking in quiet woods, listening to the song of birds or 

standing on a sandy shore, the tang of the sea on my tongue.

 * * *

 To enter please leave your "Deep Peace" thoughts below.

Open for comments until Saturday 31st March midnight.
( a special date for me as it was the day Mr O & I 1st met).

  I do ask that you be either a follower of this blog,
my personal blog 5 Precious things or
my Ruthie Redden Artworks Facebook page to take part.

I so look forward to hearing what brings you Peace . . .

and thought it might be lovely to compile some of them

in a later post -  if you dont mind that is ;-)
