Two Intense Weeks

The last few weeks have been busy! I've made hundreds of jewels, built a rock fireplace as a gift to my son's hut, tried to answer in a timely manner each "where are my jewels" questions (Breathe there are 3 days left to receive), spent hours at the beads store and more hours dreaming of what I am going to make with the new gorgeous beads, i have taken some very big bags of mail to the post office (jewels can be heavy!) and all the other typical daily life necessities(laundry cooking and cleaning blah).

And now Gerald is home for a 10 day vacation from hectic Evergreen life, Daniel is enjoying school vacation (and so am i). I am going to create new jewels, wrap presents, make yummy food and just enjoy some slow paced life for a while.

A very good article about iodine was posted today on the Iodine Board. It puts in plain english the problem with iodine deficiency. Iodine deficiency really is the only pandemic facing humans today. And the best thing that happens with this pandemic cure is worldwide health. Spread the word, Iodine is real health care reform.

Off to the jewel room! A little work to do first then make new and wonderous jewels with lampwork glass, genuine semi precious gemstones (i have rough flourite that is begging to be made) and some gorgeous czech glass beads.

Hope everyone is enjoying the holidays!

I have been making alot of the lace lockets and so took a picture of several of them together, they look so cool, almost like a carnival ride ...








Lots of jewels to make today and hopefully for the next few weeks. Friday i was a day behind. And i hope to catch up today... Tis the season! Holiday jewels. I made myself the most adorable ladybug shadowbox. The dial is so pretty. I should have taken a picture of it!

Its snowing outside, and brrrrr cold. 16 Degrees

Off to the jewel room, be out in a few weeks ;-)
