Published & Giveaway

I can't believe that I've waited this long to blog about my Very first time being published! I've had the magazine now for...I don't know 2 weeks...and I'm just now getting around to sharing. I was so excited to find out that my project was being published and then came the dreaded...wait. It seemed like forever...I SO wanted to scream from the mountain top "I have a project coming in the August/September issue of Step by Step Wire." Eventually, I got over myself and life as normal resumed until...I received the issue, and the earrings back. Excitement all over again...seeing your name in print for the first time.



So, in case you missed it...run out and get the newest issue of Step by Step Wire. There are so many great artist in this issue, and I'm thrilled to have a project published right along side theirs.


To keep the excitement going, I'm giving away these earrings.

Enter to win...simply leave a comment on this post. Facebook or blog for additional chances and a random winner will be chosen sometime Friday, July 23rd.
