Olympic Fever

For the past 2 weeks, a lot of attention has been focused on the Olympic Games in Vancouver, BC, Canada. Although my husband and I don’t usually take much notice of the Olympics, we have caught Olympic Fever this time round. Living in the host country and having one of our main television channels completely dedicated to the games may have influenced this. :)

I have been impressed by the athletes – by their skill and ability certainly, but also by their grace, enthusiasm and the good sportsmanship that I have witnessed. These athletes train so hard and for so long, many of them overcoming enormous obstacles. For some, participating in the games is the realization of a dream. For others, the dream is to earn an Olympic medal – bronze, silver or gold.

Most of us never dream of an Olympic medal. That is an honour reserved for the best of the best. But that doesn’t stop us from loving bronze, silver and gold. So in the spirit of the Olympics, here is some bronze, silver and gold jewelry made by members of the Starving Artists Team.
