Laura’s wedding was yesterday and I have pictures! It was so beautiful and I hate I wasn’t there, but I couldn’t be happier for them. They are such good people and a wonderful couple. Laura looked so gorgeous! Click here to see pictures. All the girls loved the jewelry I made. Yay! Today Shannon and…

Tomorrow is my sister Morgan’s 16th birthday. Today was her party. I can not believe she is 16. I was 17 when she was born and she was my favorite thing ever. She still ranks right up there. It is almost as if she was raised with 3 moms. I truly believe that my love…

Ok, the package is safely in Baltimore and the bride has seen her jewelry so I can post pictures. I’m sure by now you know the drill about clicking to enlarge. These are her earrings (taken on a purple backdrop as they are clear) The wedding colors are silver/platinum and purple/lavender so she wanted me…

Today I met up with Susan and Olivia for lunch then we went on a wee field trip to the paint your own pottery joint. Olivia had her little feet painted to go on gifts for family members. I used to work in a paint your own pottery store for 5 years part time that…

I have been uber busy this week making jewelry for my friend Laura’s wedding. She’s getting married Saturday and the jewelry request was last minute. I had less than 2 weeks to make and ship necklaces, bracelets and earrings for her, 1 maid of honor- Lisa, 1 flower girl, and 4 bridesmaids. On the off…

Like watching Miami Ink makes me think that for some reason I could…

I was watching that show I want that on HGTV the other night and they showed this cool little thing I’d seen in some catalog somewhere before. It was a hook that hangs your purse from the table when you’re dining out so it doesn’t have to go on the floor. Nifty. Since Jon is…

Sandy asked: Do you ever make your own beads? I love your jewelry. How did you learn to make it?Thank you Sandy! Ok, no I don’t make my own beads. I don’t have the patience to put all that work into something so teeny.I learned how to make earrings and attach a clasp for a…

1. When you view my blog on a PC are there 2 columns? The posts on the left and the sidebar on the right? It is that way on my mac so I’m curious.2. Do y’all really think I should make some more of those mirrors to sell? You think they’d sell? It never occurred…

The home improvements continue. My sister and BIL painted an entire wall with chalkboard paint at their new house and we loved the idea. We didn’t need the whole wall, just a bit. I think it is really handy and I’m sure Ling Ling will love it. So, first we removed the plate rack that…
