    Awesome day!

    Today has been just one of those wonderful days that everything seems to fall into place. Usually it’s just the opposite. I forget or misplace things, someone is a crabby butt, nothing productive gets accomplished, etc…you get the picture.

    Here’s my list of wonderful things for the day:

    • both kids slept in–HOORAY!
    • beautiful gift from a friend arrived (spoon book w/knife)
    • get to see my bracelet in print (pages 101 & 225)
    • baby girl graduated from preschool
    • tried welding for the 1st time — it’s REALLY fun

    "1000 Jewelry Inspirations"


    I just got word that the book my bracelet is published in is on Amazon for pre-order.

    As far as I can tell my bracelet didn’t make the cover shot. It was sent off with 49 other pieces as to be photographed for possible cover shots. Bummer. I’m certainly not going to complain though!! It just would have been the super sweet icing on the cake to be on the cover as well!

    I’ve been wanting to do some more jewelry making/beading lately…mostly because my altered art muse has taken an extended vacation. Here is the bracelet I made yesterday.
