Crows are associated with knowledge. These birds are recognized for their high intelligence, problem-solving skills, and complex social behaviours, which can include funeral-like gatherings.

Thank you so much for all the messages over this past year. It’s been tough going, sometimes downright terrifying, but it meant so much to have so many of you checking in. Just knowing we were not alone kept us going. Love and hugs to all of you, Trish. #downlandcrafters #craftbizparty

Hand stitched spiral bracelet with blue and green bugle beads

I really enjoyed making this spiral bracelet. The ombré effect was a bit of a ‘play and see what happens’ moment but I think it came out well. I can’t wait to try it again with some other colours. I’m thinking pinks and purples! #downlandcrafters #craftbizparty
