My Wife Has Many Talents…

Aside from being an excellent artist who will one day be at the helm of my cover artwork design, my wife, Dina can weave hemp like a champ. She’s been at it for only a month, and she is already creating necklaces like this one:

Baby, your work deserves no less than to be shown to the world… and by “world” I mean: the 27 or so people who regularly visit this site! Hehehe. I am still getting more encouraging emails every week though. I must be doing something right! Let them all marvel at your hippie-skills.

[Update]
By popular demand (and by “popular” I mean: at the request of two people) here is the necklace that Dina made for me:

I love it too! You should see the one she made for me. It has my familiar “skull and crossbones” design. I am always wearing something with that insignia on it… either my hat or my necklace. I even got a T-shirt for cedric with one on it… it sucks that we lost it. I’m wondering if my mother “misplaced” it for us.

She is. She is asleep right now, but I can’t wait until she gets up tomorrow and sees all of this praise. She deserves it… and more.

:oops: Thanks for being so interested!
I appreciate the complements.
Tina is also, multi-talented. She has some necklaces as well, that are awesome. She is learning the art of wire beading and has shown me her handy work. She is doing incredible work.

Oh, and did I mention she is the reason why I’m doing this in the first place.

She doesn’t take compliments well… she likes to stay in her misery hole… hehehe. Just kidding.
