Orchids of the Rainforest






Have you ever tried to grow orchids? They're gorgeous, but I haven't had any success with growing them in the house.  But just think how these beautiful flowers grow everywhere in the rainforest!
25,000-30,000 varieties. :)



 So if you grow some, what color would you prefer?

 Solid? Speckled? :)


I'm back to edits on A SEAL Wolf Christmas, and then it's off to work on Jaguar Heat. The title was just approved. :)




And these little confetti bears are the last of my bears in this fur. They discontinued the fabric. Aren't they cute? Like peppermint ice cream. The fur fabric is dyed that way. At bear shows, I've been asked if I colored them with marker. LOL Nope. It's permanently dyed into the fur fabric. Their paws have room for a first name and a birth date on the other paw, or I "heart" you or some such message. :)  I hand embroider the paws, and they do have bows. I just left them off to show the bear, but the color will match the embroidered paws. 

I'm off to try to get the newsletter done since I missed sending it last week--spending time with my daughter and son-in-law. Every time I worked on it to get it ready to send, my daughter made me do something else that was fun. :)  Which meant I never got it sent. :)


Have a happy Thursday!!!

I love all the pretty pink Ochids. I went to a Ochid class at my Como Zoo once. After the class I decided growing perfect orchids is just too hard. and I don't have the patience or right conditions.
