The sun is shining again… the ice is melting again… and inside I’m ice-dyeing more t-shirts AGAIN! More colorful “magic” happening while the ice melts and the colors seep into the shirts!

Here’s my February entry in the 2021 Chain Challenge set-up by my talented metalsmith friend Sarah Chapman. Sure, it may not be traditional “links” like a metalsmith’s chain might be… but I think this still works! It’s a 36″ necklace chain of soda-fired beads, turquoise rondelles & copper wire.

So this happened in the studio tonight…
a little bit of CHROMATICA with Lady Gaga OREO’s!!!

Kinda fun… but a little weird if I must say. They’re not a strange flavor, just strange colors… kind of flamingo-pink cookies with an oddly kelly green creme filling??? Pretty much the basic golden-vanilla flavor, yet a bit “thicker & crunchier” than normal OREOs??? I think I expected a little more from these “Little Monsters”!!!

But they did remind me of another great Carpool Karaoke with James Corden & Lady Gaga! Watch the YouTube video for a little Friday Night Dance Party… while driving in a van?!

A little Saturday sitcom humor…
for those of you old enough to remember…

And I know I said I was “done” with the Bernie memes!
But then THIS happened… and I just couldn’t resist!

Apparently there’s a snow sculptor named Jef Schobert
up in Stevens Point, Wisconsin isn’t done with him either!!!
Bring it on BRRR-nie!!!

Decorating bowls with some thick colored slips…
you know how I LOVE a good spiral… and a squiggle… and chattering!!!

Okay… one last BERNIE… and I’m done!!!

Okay… so my brother-in-law “found” Bernie at my Holiday Home Show… at Lillstreet… on my wheel… and even on two of my morning bike rides!!! That Bernie sure gets around!!! Just had to share “a few” more!!!

Okay… one more… purely based on the level of detail & ironic humor!!! Gotta love Melania’s new frock!!! I’m sure The Donald would love this one too!!!

I mean… this just keeps getting funnier!!! Here are just a “few” more BERNIE’s that made me laugh today! And then I swear I’m done… I swear… with fingers crossed behind my back.
