How's It Hanging Stud?

I made these for various shows I have done and as promised to my local customers I am finally putting them into my little etsy store . 

They are super cute! Super light Weight and Super affordable at $12 a pair!  I wrap them up nicely in a brown little box with hemp or cotton cord tied up with one of my sweet little ceramic charms.  Perfect of the up coming holiday season.

The Gnomes Have taken over!

So the gnomes have had enough of those noisy pesky fairies.  They kicked them out and moved in.  It's a much nicer neighborhood now.

I love how these little guys have turned out. I waited a very long time to put them in my shop because I wanted them for me!!  But if I kept everything that I loved  that came out of my kiln then I would have an empty shop tee hee.

I have more gnomes in the kiln as I am writing this so hopefully tomorrow after I take the kids to school I will have time to post them. Enjoy these cuties and head on over to my shop and check out some more!

Copper Diem

Amy  the super sweet blog host of the blog Copper Diem sent me a message yesterday that she wanted to profile my bead sets on her blog.  I am so super excited about how it turned out. Please go check it out there is a coupon for 15% off my shop, plus a giveaway of two of my sweet little amber bird beads!

While you are there check out her store Green Bead.  Her jewelry is colorful, unique and  beautiful! Her blog is exciting and fresh.  She has something different everyday with beautiful pictures, fun stories and lots of other interesting reads!

Bracelets and Bangles

I posted some Bangles and Bracelets that I made sometime ago.  I have local customers that have been asking me to put them in my shop... so after some procrastinating a bit I did it yesterday.  It makes me want to make more! So take a look :)

Posting Some Jewelry ... Finally!

I have lots of Jewelry that I have made out of my beads.  I have it stashed in little bags inside boxes and bins.  I have had people ask me to post my jewelry in my shop but for some reason I always get hung up on some detail. For example I have a ton of rings and bracelets but I worry about sizes and how to take pictures of them that would be appealing.. oh and about a thosand other details.

  This is exactly what happened to me when I opened my Etsy shop.  I got hung up on a thosand little details and it kept me from posting my beads forever.  I got over the fear and now posting my beads is a breeze.  So I am throwing caution to the wind and just doing it.  I am sure there will be a learning curve on how to present my jewelry but how will I learn if I don't just do it?

Here are some pictures of my new earrings I am posting and hopefully over the next few days I will be adding rings and bracelets too!

Tiny Turtles and Tiny Houses

So this is the fun stuff I have been making!  I love my turtles so much I can't wait to make more!  I my little houses are fun too and I did make some tiny little gnomes to go along with them but they didn't make this last glaze firing.

I have lot's of new beads that I am working on too. 

It has been a crazy summer so far. I am hoping to use these last few weeks will be more productive for me.

New Stuff New Start New Summer!

 I have been so busy with the kids and school the past couple of months that I have left my poor blog alone.  So now that summer has started  I will have more time to keep this poor blog updated. 

Here a some pictures of what I posted in my shop to today to kickstart the blog back up! Going to start rakuing again this summer and I have some non bead ceramic items in the works that I am excited about too!
