Blog Props ~ Tahoma Beadworks & Photography

For this month's praise-worthy blog, I'm nominating that of my creative friend, JoJo. With Tahoma Beadworks & Photography, she showcases all of her lovely crafts, with a diversity stretching from tie-dye, to sand art, to gorgeous jewelry, to pretty cards, all made by the lady herself! And, I have to admit, what I like best about these blog-props posts is that I can let the pictures do all the talking! JoJo promises to re-open her Etsy shop and I truly hope she does, 'cause I heart, heart, heart her work, and I reckon you will, too. Click on the captions to see the blog post in which each image originally appeared.

First, the crafts and beadworks!

Votive Cup with Chips

Crafty Candles

Tie-Dyed Ornament

Birthday Card

Beaded Necklace with Azurite

Next, the photography!

Clearly, JoJo's an incredible talent, and I hope y'all will visit Tahoma Beadworks & Photography soon, and tell your friends about it, too!

All images, except for the Blog Props Meme, belong to JoJo and were posted here with her kind permission.

  5. Thanks for all the lovely sentiments, everybody! Glad you're all digging JoJo's work as much as I do!

    @JoJo It's truly my pleasure. I can't craft anything but words (and melodies, if we're talking music), so my respect for folks who can make beautiful objects of art with their own two hands knows no bounds. <3

  6. Gorgeous photos! I lived for a year in Seattle, in Mt. Ranier's shadow, basically. I have to say, never once did I see (lenticular?)cloud formations like that. I might have stayed! :)

  12. LOOOOOVE the clouds!!
    Or anything with cool or extreme weather--and that pic is great!
    Love your blog Mina--always interesting.
    Thanks.
    P.S. Doesn't the extreme weather always make you feel like something weird is going to happen--like something is brewing beyond the storm??
