Twinkle

That is just sand caught by sunlight twinkling around this perfectly-heart-shaped stone in the wet morning sand.

Xmas lights furnish the twinkle in this detail from the palm fruiting stem I used as a Xmas tree this year, covering it with shells and stones in the shapes of hearts, other sea findings and handmade flowers I fashioned out of egg cartons and paint.

A shot from a firework display held, coincidently, on my birthday—part of the celebration for the 100th anniversary of the town I grew up in.

My Christmas Tree/Altar. Very twinkly.

 

This is the tree in daylight. Palm fruiting stem covered in heart-shaped rocks and shells found on the beach, pelican feathers and flowers I made out of painted egg cartons.

      Ha! You weren’t supposed to notice the desk. It has become an altar for a few weeks, then will convert back to its old identity. Yes, Mexico is a culture rich in decorative ceremony. Loud and colorful. Keeps reminding us all that we are still alive and still have a little kick in us! Thanks for commenting…and for not smoking, Ladybug! Judy
