Saturday dawned sunny and warm, a perfect day for a ride in the country, so AC and I set off for the
Maple Run Studio Tour in Pakenham. One of my favorite artists, Jane Christie -
Twisted Sister Jewelery - was on the tour and I wanted to see her latest work so we stopped at her studio first. Here we are on the porch looking at one of her necklaces, it was a beauty, but I managed to resist it and only purchased a pair of earrings. Each piece is a work of art and a joy to wear. You can see a pin she made for me
here. ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiEESDWHDQ6Ma6OH9adSWYlfPOld8R_TaluOEKfp-7dKf0iWGkxY9uNYhlseegCCAic7kIgsTBCw27iMni1uTI5BdPOF45nuLFWaDpLUKyCGMVzGDA8cIrVLG7YacogEsz8WkttrA/s400/march-28-013.jpg)
After my visit with Jane we walked over to another studio and enjoyed watching
Chris Van Zanten work his magic with coloured glass. Here he is beginning to make a bowl much like the one seen in the picture below.

Each piece is different...

At the end of the tour it was time for a rest and visit with a furry friend. Apparently we were both knackered!

The maple sap was running and so were we!
