Etsy people are the best!

In my short year and a half as a seller on Etsy I have had met some of the nicest, kindest people there ever. That is the case with Joanie from BeadRuby. She sent me the most gorgeous pair of earrings for being the 1000th person to "heart" her shop.
She is a fellow lampworker that makes very unique jewelry and you should definetly check out her shop. Click her to see her work!

Here are the amazing earring that she sent me and I wear them all the time!

Snow, snow go away, don't come back another day!!!!!

I am really getting tired of this snow. Last week we received 12 inches(aren't we lucky). Yesterday another 2 inches fell. The boys however had a blast with Playdough.
Brody tried to eat it as every little kid tries at one point or another. It was hilarious as he just held his mouth open and said "Ucky"!

Gotta make the Beads!!!!

Today is one of those days where I woke up and felt the overwhelming need to create!
Some days I just have to and I always listen to that inner voice because you never know when the muse with visit again. So, stay tuned and see tommorrows blog to see what comes out of the kiln!!!!

In the meantime here are a few new listings that I have up on Etsy...

FIRE and ICE


HOT PINK SPIRAL DISCS

EBONY PATH

This is my newest focal bead for sale at Etsy. I love the way the rippled path turned out and the silvered icory against black is pretty dramatic too. While you are at my Etsy Shop make sure you check out my lampwork pairs. They are perfect for making your own earrings and I have jsut lowered the price on them too!

New Focal Bead - FLORAL GARDEN!

Floral Garden Bead on Etsy
I am in love with this bead. It is a black base that has been acid etched with raised flowers that I left shiny. Together I think they really "pop" off the black background.

Today is a great day!

I really try to keep politics out of my blog but my mind is consumed today with the joy of our great country. We will never be the same, we must always remember the past and keep our eyes to the future. No matter what comes our way we can overcome!
You can do what you set your mind to do with a hard work and discipline.

Today is a Great Day!!!!!
