New Beads... New Necklace

I finally bought some... Czech Cathedral Beads. They are really gorgeous in person. They are a great translucent olive shade with golden tips. I strung some with brass wire and added a pretty gold and red glass rose and brass chain to make this asymmetrical necklace pictured.

Sorry about the lack of blogging... just other stuff going on :)

Another Snow Day!

Not much work will get done here in Chardon today. It's another snow day! I have to find things for us to do around the house since it's too bad to go play outside. I'm pretty sure I'm stuck here today too. Looking out the window I see that the city has run out of salt. I don't think I'm getting out of the driveway, let alone down the street. I'll take a photo once the blizzard ends :)

Have fun out there in the world today!

I posted a photo of a Vermeil and Cubic Zirconia necklace that I put in my store yesterday. It make me warmer to look at the colors of the necklace!

On a Mission

I'm on a mission to use all of my supplies that I already have. Once again, I'll try very hard not to buy new until the old is gone. I know you've heard this before, but this time, I'm going to do it! This is why you'll see a wide range of styles and colors coming over the next few weeks.

Today I've added some bright silver necklaces and will be adding gold earrings and necklaces in a little while. I'll still be adding vintage pieces when the inspiration strikes so check in often to see the new, mostly one-of-a-kind pieces.

Yeah! Front Page

I made the front page of Etsy the other day (isn't is pretty!?). Thank you miabeads! Just wanted to share the good news :) I'm the owl necklace up on top... it sold, but I am waiting for more supplies to make more. This is the necklace that was in the Home Companion magazine.
