"Zoofari" This is the second year we have donated to the annual auction supporting the Brownsville Zoo.  This mesquite and turquoise set raised over $200.  We were delighted to attend   the auction which turned out to be a real nail-biter....

"Celebrations" November brings the Celebrations Christmas Market. We'd love to see you on our booth at Second Baptist Church 19449 Katy Freeway Houston, TX 77094. The show runs from Friday 4th November (9am to 5pm) to Saturday 5th November (9am to 3pm).

Here's a close-up shot of our bead turning in progress.  We love to use indigenous Texan wood, in this case it's mesquite.  Other fine turning woods such as Texas Ebony or "Iron wood' produce beautiful results.

Las alas Designs, Alicia, Leti and Alma would like to thank everyone for a great year and wish you all "happy holidays".
