Living the Creative Life . . .

Welcome to the home page of Milt and Patricia Jamie Lee. (I go by Jamie in daily life.)

We live in the north woods of Minnesota and have spent 30 years together living a creative and varied life. We like sharing what we do with others and we love helping others to reach a bit higher. Some of our adventures include extensive travels into Indian Country, an international Peace Project, and a lot of producing and writing and pebbling . . .

Over the next year we'll be scouring our archives as well as offering new content intended to inspire and teach. It will take some time as we migrate and merge our other websites onto this one.
See our blog for most current information.

Over View of 2015 Building Season

Jamie and I love to build stuff. This is a quick overview of what we were doing the summer of 2015. The two buildings that we worked on were my studio and the pump house, which is where our well is located.

The pictures below are from the winter Milt and I spend envisioning what our straw bale house would look like on the 10 acres we bought sight unseen in the winter of 2008. So cool to see that vision begin to grow roots in reality.

About a year ago I started making Pebble Art using small stones gathered from many places. I began tumbling glass, finding driftwood and bits and pieces. I love the stories that can be told with simple tiny objects. You can see and purchase some of my recent pieces in our store.

How To build a Bead Person

Many people have bought our Bead People kits. And we put together a video to show you exactly how to build one - so here it is:

Bead People Kit $ 42.00

Each kite contains enough beads, and wires to build Bead People. You also get 10 copies of the little book, The Wind of a Thousand Years. This is the origin story of how the Bead People came to be. Jamie started making these little people over 10 years ago, and since then there have been over 12,000 bead people traveling to over 44 countries.

Bemer Blankets

These are blankets that we make and sell to put on your Bemer. It keeps the original cover nice and clean and they are really soft and comfy (for your 8 minute session!)

Gardening

Gardening is another of those things that we really love. This beauty still has a month to go. Amazing squash this year.
