Having some computer and camera issues so these pictures are the best I can do (I have no idea how to change the orientation of the picture). Thanks to those of you who were interested in seeing more.  These are my own take on some old silverware chimes I saw years ago.  I use creamers, sugarbowls and teapots and old silverplate utensils, then add beads and crystals and top everything off with a vintage brooch or earring.  So easy to make and everyone seems to love them.

As for changing the orientation if you just move your mouse over various icons on the top of your photo edit page, it usually will write on the screen what that icon does. If you still can't get it to change for you, than it might be a site resizing issue. Otherwise, we can just tilt our heads every once in a while when this happens in a post. I've seen it happen before, and it did it once on one of my photos I was trying to use and I ended up trying a different photo that time.
