Description
Blue Rudraksha seeds are totally inedible but the image will look great with the right decor. The Rudraksha tree is from India. They grow well over 50-70 feet tall. There is a small forest near my home. I also have some Rudraksha photos posted.
When the Rudraksha seeds dry and the blue hulls fall off, the extremely hard seeds inside. These blue tree seeds are made into jewelry or meditation beads.

Mary Beth, I found some studio lights and screens and stuff in an estate sale; have a little studio set up in one room. Am in the process of making the space larger still. Still need to learn best use of it all. Thanks for your comments and F.V.
