A Day with my Neice

During the summer my neice, Summer, will be spending Wednesday's with me. She is so fun and easy to be with that the day flies by. Today we went shopping, met Pete for lunch and then I showed her how to make earrings. It was her first time wrapping wire and although she found it challenging, she did a great job.

Here are a few Disk beads you'll find on my Bead page......I have them in my Etsy Shop too. The texture on these adds such interest. I'll be making earrings with some that I'll make for myself. Tomorrow is an earring day. I have a schedule for the next few weeks and I need to stick with it. 

Working with a Theme

Sometimes a theme just takes off for you and inspires a wealth of items. My theme has been Silver and Glass and I've primarily been focused on earrings. I wanted to work with lower priced items for the holidays considering the economy and all. Anyways, I'm really thrilled with my results. I just shot these and the lighting wasn't the best but I still think they are terrific. Some of these will be available in my Etsy shop so get them while you can. Others will be shipped out to shops. I'll be sure to show you others that are in the line up.

Pierced Hearts & Sprocket Earrings

I have some new hearts that I will slowly introduce over the next few weeks. I've been working on a piercing concept for a few months and finally have something I think I like. I've also been really taken with making earrings. Typically I hate making earrings but since the summer I've been on a roll with creating some interesting designs...... I'm now LOVING them.


Let me know what you think!
