So it's been over a year..

After reading a lot of lovely blogs today I thought, hey it'd be nice if there was somewhere I could have the stories behind all of my craft/art projects in one place. And then I realized that I tried having a blog once, and completely forgot about it (of course). Then I thought well, I should have one connected with the same name as my etsy shop. So, I managed to remember how to log into blogger and abracadabra! I already had one..

I'm really excited to start blogging.. like for real! So if any of you are actually reading this and have favorite blogs you should help a sister out and let me know where they're at.

Okay.. so I guess I should update? well I've been done with freshman year at MCAD for a couple months now. Loved it. Now my live consists of working at a coffee shop and being creative when I can. My main focus has been repainting furniture so that my bedroom will not have a random "whatever happened to be on sale during the month of august 2007" look to it. I should note that my sewing machine broke, so.. I've switched to jewelry! It's going surprisingly well.. havent added much to etsy yet though, so I guess I dont really know how well its going yet.

right, so the jewelry.. it's something I felt like I had done before, but when i really think about it, this was a first. I was inspired by all the cute resin jewelry on craftster.org and was able to be successful thanks to some great tutorials on it. These definitly aren't all of them but I will add more- now that I'm a blogger.

I started casting simple things like buttons and sprinkles


Then I used magazine clippings..



Then I figured out I could recycle old eye shadow tins and use my own designs to make some pretty spiffy rings..




and I then of course added tiny rhinestones on some of them to give them some extra pizazz

Alright.. well that's it for me this time, and again please pass your favorite blog url's over to me :)
