Sneak peek! New Jewelry!!!

I've been working pretty hard lately on 2 things: 1. trying to get photos taken of new pieces as they are finished instead of waiting to photograph several at once, and 2. getting things listed in my shops more often. Here is a sneak peek at 2 new pieces that I just finished. Neither have been added to my shops yet.



This first bracelet was made with gorgeous beads by Libelula Designs. She creates some of the most beautiful beads I have ever seen! As soon as she listed these beads -- I had to have them!!! The bracelet was made with her gorgeous beads, sterling silver spacers and a combination of large round links and small oval link chain.


The second piece is a pair of earrings made with sterling silver, antiqued brass and a combination of garnet rounds and teardrops, finished off with 2 gold vermeil spacer beads.

Ouch!!



Yesterday morning I slipped on some ice on my porch and fell on my butt. HARD. So hard that I laid on the porch for 10 minutes before I could even drag myself inside the house. A trip to the ER, couple of x-rays and 5 hours later, I was on my way home with good news (nothing broken or out of place) and an rx for pain meds. Now if only I could make the pain in my lower back go away completely!

So now I'll be spending the next few days taking it easy, trying to get my lower back back to normal. I had plans to work on some new pieces, but now I will make better use of my time listing new items in my shops. Keep and eye on both shops over the next few days for more rings, earrings and necklaces!

Happy Easter!

Whew! What a day! Easter candy, Easter brunch, Easter egg hunts, Easter lunch, etc, etc. A fun day with family, and Zoe has more sugar today than she's had in a year. What to do with all this candy now? LOL

Time to get back on track with new listings and new pieces. I added several new rings earlier last week to each of my shops and this lovely new necklace to my artfire shop:


Up this week:
matching earrings (for the necklace above)
more rings
2 new necklaces
1 new bracelet

Keep an eye on the Etsy and Artfire shops this week!
