I just can't part with it...yet

I just made a new necklace, and as I was taking pictures, and tried it on to see how it fit, I can't part with it...

It's sterling silver, Thai silver, and blue goldstone gemstones. The charm says says "Om". There is a swirl on the back of the charm too...

What do you think of it??

New feature...

I haven't been posting here a lot lately, because I've been pretty busy, and when I do have time, I just want to sleep.

However, now that I've been posting things to my store on Etsy, I figured I would spread the love around and show you all some of the items I'm loving...

Not only do I LOVE the name of this store, but omshanti has this tangerine vanilla lip balm I'm dying to try:

I fell in love with this mala from Healingstones when I saw it...

And last, but certainly not least, for tonight...this cute clipboard from Rista (also in MI like me!!!)

Eh, of course, I have to leave you with one of my newest creations...

Creative Streak?

So, since Saturday, I've made 6 things - 4 pairs of earrings, a bracelet, and a necklace. Whew! And I still have all these ideas...just have to have time to sit down and do it all!

As usual, you can see all my work at http://www.clockrocks.etsy.com/. I wish my camera would focus better, because these earrings are really pretty!!! Darn picture doesn't do them justice.

And, just a reminder that the holiday season is coming up...it kind of snuck up on me, that's for sure. I woke up on Monday of this week, and thought "wow, it's October 20th??"

Going back to the hobbies

So, this past weekend, I got inspired to start beading again. Bridget was wearing a pink necklace to bowling on Saturday night, and it gave me an idea. This is what it turned out to be:










It's pewter colored, with clear Swarovski crystals. the spacers are sterling silver daisy spacers and the clasp is sterling also.



Ah, how nice to be using the stuff I have...

Some progress has been made...

Alright - well, here's the necklace for my boss. I still have to make the bracelet, which will be the same concept as the necklace. That's the project for tonight. That, and making the necklace slightly longer, since I adjusted wrong.

Also, I started working on my dog's scrapbook last night. I picked up the pictures at Meijer yesterday, and they turned out great. I finished one page, and then started another one, but haven't finished it yet.

Off to do things...
