Love these Long Holidays!



I just love having all this time off! I visited the big Bead Show in town last weekend so I'm ready to get to work! And I'm getting into the Christmas spirit. I'm making Christmas earrings. Are these little snowmen adorable or what! They seem so happy!

I've made several new pieces this weekend, I'm trying to get ready for my December 10th Open House!

December 10th - Open House Jewelry Party!

My sweet friend Debbie from Prairieemporium.com gave me this beautiful hand made bead in blue and green and I couldn't wait to make something out of it. So I mixed it with a brass "joyful" pendant and made a bracelet. I'm getting ready for my December 10th Open House! Thank you Debbie!

Love those Mixed Metals

I loved making this necklace and all the components. First I soldered the brass rings together and then I made this sterling silver circle and clasp. Then I added lots of fun gemstones and beads. I'm trying to make pieces for an open house but I'm having a hard time finding a date to have my Open House. I love these parties though so I've got to find a time. Do you think the 2nd week in December is too late.....is your Christmas shopping done by then???? Just looking for some feedback about a good date for a jewelry party!

Green...the color of Fall!


My good friend Debbie from Prairieemporium.com gave me this pretty glazed glass leaf pendant and I just love the color. Then I found this pretty green/gold fiber at our local bead shop and threaded it through some copper chain. This is so fall............

Halloween!


This is Sam and mom getting ready for an evening of Trick or Treating! We had a great time...caught up with some friends and did our treating in a big group! We got tired rather quickly since we had the Tulsa Run earlier that day......but Sam has plenty of candy (I'm hiding a large portion of it)! Hope you all enjoyed your Halloween!
