New Necklace!!

Hello There! I went to a jewelry show over the weekend and bought some much needed supplies. I bought some crackled blue agate beads and I made this necklace. The necklace is approximately 19 1/2 inches long. The crackled blue agate is accented with brushed sterling silver beads and blue swarovski crystals. This necklace is so nice because you can dress it up or dress it down. I can see this necklace with a white button down shirt and blue jeans or with a beautiful blouse and skirt. I love it! Do you?

New Jewelry!

I've been working hard and I've put some new jewelry on the website. More to come! Ahhhh, so much to do and so little time. I'm working on more jewelry for Valentines day and I'm working on some beautiful necklaces. I have some really pretty snakeskin agate that I am playing around with. It's green and brown and oh so nice to work with. I might incorporate some smokey quartz into the design as well. I'll post a picture when I'm finished.

News Flash!!! I've been busy working on a project! I have partnered with a wonderful lady and I will have some exciting news to share soon. Stay tuned....

Hope for Haiti

I want to take a moment to pray for safety and healing for the people of Haiti. I watched the news and pleas for help for the country. I watched from my warm home while eating a hot meal and sitting in my comfortable chair. I thought about how blessed we are to have happy, healthy lives with roofs over our heads and food to eat. Please stop and take a moment to give a blessing to the people of Haiti. No matter how small. If we all gave just five dollars, that would be a large amount of money. If you just gave a couple of cans of food to your local church. There are many churches that are collecting food and other basic necessities. To donate online, please visit : https://hopeforhaitinow.org or http://redcross.org
Be a ray of hope for someone in need.

What these hands made

Today was a great day! I got up early in the morning and started working on jewelry, I filled some orders and I took some new jewelry to Honeybeez & Co.

I ran across a quote by Robert Redford, "There is something about the hands of an artist". I like it. I get such a great feeling when I create something beautiful with my own two hands.

Here's a picture of the jewelry these hands made. I hope you like what you see. :o)

Working working working......

I've done a lot on the computer today. I added a Facebook page for Arount the Bend! Now all I need are some fans! :o) I'm starting to get the hang of some of this technical stuff and I'm actually having fun. I have a lot to learn about marketing but I'll get there. It takes time and patience. Progress feels great!

Busy Weekend!

The weekend has been busy and productive! I got up early Saturday morning and made jewelry to take to Honeybeez & Co. I am excited to say that the store opened September 8th and my jewelry is doing very well there. It's very nice to give customers a place to go so that they can see my jewelry designs in person. Stop by when you have time. The store is located in the Garner TV and Appliance shopping complex on Hwy 70 W. 889 Hwy 70 W, Garner, NC 27529. Phone number 995-9409. Their website address is www.honeybeezandco.com
Tell them I sent you!

Busy Day Today

I got home from work today and I was feeling tired and drained. I wanted to push myself to jump right into jewelry making but I couldn't. Instead, I sat down for awhile and just tried to unwind. I ate some dinner and then I felt better. I started to feel energized again so I worked on some jewelry. I have this new idea for earrings that I want to try. I'm going to dream of different variations tonight I'm sure.

Life is so hectic that sometimes it's not easy for me to jump from one thing to the next so easily. I need time to regroup and unwind. I can't create things when I'm stressed or tired.

Tomorrow is another day and I'm going to get my task list together. I have a space at a new store. Honeybeez and Company. It's in Garner beside Garner TV and Appliance on Hwy 70. They will have great merchandise there such as jewelry, purses and various gifts. The grand opening is later this month. I have lots to do if I'm going to be ready for the opening. I'm excited! I'll be sharing more info about the store soon.

Good Night Everyone! Blessings :o)
