365 Days of Creativity

I have been reading about this 365 Days of Creativity project.  It basically means that for 1 year, you do something creative every day- write a poem, draw, take a picture, make something.

I am scared to commit to a year, but I can do a month!  I am going to work on this every day for the month of March.  It's right around the corner!  I have set my mind to it (I just have to set an alarm to remind me.  Very ADD, very.....).

Working on Updating My Blog

It's been a while since I have posted here, but I'm trying to get back into blogging.  Managing an Etsy store, a Facebook page, a  Twitter account, and a blog----SHEESH!  It's a lot.  But, I'd like to try.  All this while I am trying to figure out my own life, now that I am single again.  Anyway, the thought for the day.

The truth is, I just broke up with my boyfriend of 10 months, and I'm taking it out on my creativity. Or, trying to. It's been a struggle to figure out what to make- nothing seems to jump out at me, when I'm just trying to take it day by day. Ugh! I hate breakups. They drain the life out of you. I'm still in this phase....

Glass Chip Necklace

I found an interesting tutorial, and decided to use up some of my black and clear glass chips to create this necklace, earring and ring set. I am IN LOVE with it. Not only is it quick to whip up, but they are so delicate.

Ring a Ding Ding

Well, the ring I made on a whim for a customer yesterday went over so well, that I got 2 more orders in. Amazing. I bought a cheap jewelry tray for the rings I've made, and when I laid them all out, I found that I had quite a few! I call this new style "fan rings," because of how they are laid out. I find that making the wire crochet necklaces kind of zens me out, but making rings is a very different brain process- creative and challenging in how I can make plain wire and random beads into something pretty. I love these rings- I might have to make one to keep!

Full Sets Completed!

I just made my first full set of matching jewelry- a ring, earrings and necklace for a customer (I'm just hoping she likes the ring- she only ordered a necklace and earrings!). The ring is a little bit elaborate, but what the hell? The copper rings are a longshot, too- to match a copper necklace I previously sold. She liked the necklace so well, she wanted earrings to match!
