So I got a little off track there during the holidays-too much good food, libation, and Pinterest! In between all those activities, I took a little break from painting and messed around on the jewelry bench the husband built for me.
I've been wanting to do that for sometime but between getting ready for the"Off The Grid" show and the holidays, it just didn't happen. I spent most of my Christmas vacation listening to music and surfing the web. I guess that's ok-it's all inspiration. On the jewelry bench, I did a lot of repairs of my own jewelry and created a few things. My goal was to complete at least one project from one of the many jewelry books I own. I made several milagro bracelets from the book "Inspiritu Jewelry" by Marie French.
I am also determined to bring eyeglass chains back into fashion-only because I keep losing my glasses at work and don't want to look like an old lady! I also made a necklace out of a snowflake ornament I purchased at the Button Factory in Portsmouth several yrs ago. That's the extent of my creative exploits during the last few weeks. It's time to get working. It's a new year!
