I'm having a sale!

I'm having a sale! 15% off everything in the Etsy shop. Get ready for the upcoming season with the great selection you'll find here! Sale ends 12 midnight Sunday night.

No one jumped on the free shipping that I hid in my last post so that opportunity has been replace with this one and no longer available. My apologies to all the late-comers.

Seriously, I have a lot of inventory and need to move some of these items.  So, come on by and check it out. Remember, Christmas is not that far away and you can't go wrong with jewelry!

Last night was a good night -for beading!

Wow! I had so much fun. After spending so much time working on the marketing end (thank you, followers) I finally got to have some fun!

Now you see it

Now you don't!

Here's the piece that pulls the trick off. Cool?

Stay tuned for more soon!

Ever held onto a bead knowing one day you'll find a way to show it off? This is one of those beads for me. I love Unakite. Well, let's face it, I love anything that's olive green -or looks good with it.

I mixed this one up with Picture Jasper, Serpentine, and black glass. There's a certain "Wow" factor when worn.

Made some more jewelry

I went a little crazy making 21" necklace/bracelets. Found out recently that 21" was the "magic length". The piece can be wrapped 3 times around a standard wrist for a bracelet. I've made them in every color and style I could think of. There's a total of 26, I think. I count and make more then count and make more again.
It's been rainy the last few days very dreary. The chickens haven't like it at all. But today the sun might pop out. And if it gets bright enough, I can start taking pics of the new stuff and show em to ya. I really need to get a light box. I really need to get an addition to this house -or a new house to be able to have the space for a light box.
I've been thinking about the whole jewelry business. I had no idea just how many people do this on Etsy and it's tough. I love making the jewelry, no doubt. But the marketing part is just not me. I can do the meet and greet. I can set displays and talk. But to do that in the impersonal world of the net when there's thousands of others doing the same is a totally different world. I need a bullhorn. lol
To that end, I'm going to embark on going local. Wish me luck!
