Over the Rainbow





My daughter colors everything in rainbow colors. I can't say that I've seen a cat in every color under the sun but she is creative (like her mom). So in honor of her colorful out look on life I made this bracelet. Plus, it uses up some of those odd beads, you know the ones that have been hanging around for a while that you just can't seem to pair up.

This bracelet is unique in another way as well. There are no "mass production" beads such as Bali or Thai silver beads. I have juried for an artist tour, and the pieces that I display during the tour can not contain any mass production materials. I'm still waiting to hear from the jury. I'll be sure to let everyone know the outcome.

This bracelet is not in my Etsy shop but hopefully I'll list it sometime this week:)

See this bracelet in my Etsy shop! You'll love it!

Finally....I'm coming out of the dark ages

Ok...I'm finally going to attempt to start blogging. I feel like I need to come out of the dark ages. I'm constantly reading other blogs, getting lots of useful tips and reading the ramblings of others. So here goes, I'm going to make a conscious effort to post on a regular basis. Although, this is probably not the best time of year to start something new....with Christmas looming.

Recently I have been so busy that I barely have time to concentrate on my jewelry designs. I recently had a holiday open house at my home that was very successful. However, that was the weekend after Thanksgiving and I have created only a few pieces since then. As much as I am looking forward to Christmas, I'll be glad to get back to my regular routine. I'm like that...I have a daily groove and not happy if my groove gets disrupted.

Anyway, be sure to check out my online shop for some great jewelry pieces that are available. And, sign up to receive my blogs via email, please enter "subscribe to blog" in the comments section.
