I HAD A FEELING ...

Image
Well, call it a feeling,  intuition,  whatever you want; but the original buyer, as my gut feeling said would happen,  didn't/ couldn't go thru with her commitment to buy CORAL BY THE SEA Necklace/Earring Set.   She has a lot going on personally and I truly feel for her.  I didn't know but my MIL asked my husband about it the day after it was pending sale.  So when she found out the sale fell thru, she told me she wanted to purchase it.  YAY!!   So It has definitely sold and the transaction  will be completed today. It stays local and in the family.  Yay!!  The other person would've loved j it and take very goid care of it,  too.  Wrong tine and place.  Maybe later she'll ask for something when things vs have things aren't so chaotic for her. Today, I'm working on some earrings.  I made some last night; but need to redo one of the pair. Update : I remade said pair of earrings ... I'm happy with the ...

Isn't It Spring YET????

Isn't it supposed to be SPRING??? ANYONE??? It's snowing ... Again! I'm outgrowing this weather.  It's time to move to the tropics!  I love the Peanuts cartoon where Charlie Brown's sister is screaming,  "I'm NOT MADE FOR WINTER!!!"  Well,  since it's technically SPRING,  "I'M NOT MADE FOR THIS WEATHER!!!" LOL  For one,  I'm a Mermaid at Heart. 😉 It's been too long since I posted,  so I'm feeling guilty for neglecting my Blog.  I've finished my Photography Class and I actually learned something.  Not because I didn't have an excellent teacher in my SRAJD instructor Laura Bracken, but because it actually sunk into this thick skull of mine.  Oh, there's still tons to learn in these editing programs. I could take the class a couple of more times.  It's clicking.  I've designed some new pieces of jewelry I'm proud of,  as I've been doing a lot of practicing with my editing in the photo class.  

GOODBYE WINTER, HELLO SPRING!

  It's Spring!!! 🌞  February is my least favorite month; so I'm so glad to see it GONE! I know we have to go thru some more cold streaks; but it's March!!! Thinks are budding,  turning green,  the rebirth of Mother Nature's beauty.  I've got my green beads out for St. Patrick's Day!  I was recently challenged to my first Seven Day Jewelry Challenge.  So exciting!!  I joined Creative Bad Chat Group and posted in the 52 Week Earring Challenge Group.  I'm halfway between my SRAJD Photography Class;  and I'm sooooo glad I took that course.  Laura Bracken is such a wonderful instructor.  Those of you that are members of the the SRAJD Organization,  I highly recommend this class!!  I hope to have,  thru my groups and challenges,  some listings up on my Facebook page for you to view and hopefully purchase!  The big theme will be green!  It's the Irish Welsh blood calling to me.  Enjoy these war...

Feb, SLOW Start; But Will Get Busy!

  Feb, SLOW Start; But Will Get Busy!  *UPDATE* I'm so bummed at how this month began ... you know what they say about plans.  I had all these plans of making lots of Jewelry for Valentine's Day to sell on my Facebook Page or in a couple of auction groups. First, I had technical problems,  then I became sick for a week. For me that means twice the amount of time to recover than normal due to my autoimmune diseases. I'm completely wiped out.  I HOPE I can do something today!!  I'm really excited about this class because I know nothing beyond "point and shoot". I'm taking it thru my SRAJD Organization (  SRAJD International Organization of Jewelry Designer's  ) thru Laura Bracken of  Laura Bracken Design's Studio .  Stay Tuned for More!   UPDATE :  It's the day of  the first lesson of my Photography Class! SQUEEEEE!!!! Time has gotten away from me where I've been consumed with getting my Windows 10 ...
