Made this little gold maple leaf pendant today in honour of the first day of Autumn. Any excuse to saw some metal! The copper leaves at the bottom were made some years ago for hammered copper napkin rings. Someday, I'll make more of those if someone orders them.

A purple Montgomery-Ramsay product box sits against a purple background. Hanging over the edge of the box is a gold maple leaf pendant on a chain. Surrounding the base of the box are some copper maple leaves (Acer saccharum).

I posted this picture as un update to a post I hadn't even sent 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️ Anyway, this baby magpie was born in the nest in my tree and now he has a buddy. I'm sitting at my window desk living my best Snow White life.

In Inuit lore, seasonal shifts are mirrored in the tale of the Fox Wife. A hunter returns to his dwelling in the autumn to find it cleaned, with a warm meal waiting. He finds a fox has shed her skin to become a beautiful woman, demonstrating nature's bounty and seasonal magic. #WyrdWednesday
