No new auction today… maybe I’ll put those in the Mart. I’m still on track for 5:15 or so tomorrow MY time. I’ve got at least ten sets, maybe more. Maybe you’ll also be glad to know no new cart yet, I’m still waiting on my English connection for help which will hopefully arrive soon, so in the meantime the drill remains the same. Anyway, hope you had a great Wednesday!! See ya’ tomorrow.

I’m still having fun playing with the whole idea of soldering. Here are some pics of my latest accomplishment. I kinda like ‘em. Anyway, not much else to report today. Lots of beads here for the Mart, just stockin’ up. I might have a new auction tomorrow, I made some more organic style beads in GREEN! I’m not much of a green gal but I do love these… we’ll have to see how the day goes. Alrighty, hope that you had a great day!!

Bit of a busy day here, but all good. Then I somehow got caught up making changes to my shopping cart again… Sad but true… once I start I just can’t stop. Heehee. Still hoping to have beads in the Mart later this week, I’ve had a request for an evening update so I’m aiming for 5ish (Oregon time) on Thursday. Hope you had a great day!! I’m off to bed. Good night.

I just listed two new auctions over on Ebay, check out the links below if you have a minute. I am planning on having more flowers, discs, and more fun stuff in the Mart on Thursday. I have found someone from England (it’s a small world!) to help me fix the cart I was working on so I might try it this week, or next, I’ll keep you posted! Hope you had a great weekend! Stay tuned for more beads this week!! Woohoo!!

I finally made my own circle thingy bracelet. Just wanted to share… I love these circles so much I might need to add them to the Mart! Hope you are heading into a great weekend. I plan to have a new auction on Sunday so check back if you can!

Here are some of my latest silver pieces. I think they are fun and I am always just so happy when I actually get the solder to behave!!! I am also having lots of fun making “surprise beads”… they are a surprise to me because I never know what they really will look like out of the kiln. Each one is like a little experiment to see just what happens when I add all the ingredients! The only trouble comes about when I love a bead and I can’t remember what I did! HA! Anyway, I hope you are having a great week. We have about two weeks before school starts here so we are a bit busy with last minute summer fun it seems… but it is all good. I am HOPING to finally load the Mart with some flowers next week, stay tuned…

Okay, here are some of the very beautiful pendants made by my oh so talented neighbor. I really think that they are all quite elegant. I traded her these beads for some of her beautiful handmade findings, what fun!! Just wanted to share. Have I mentioned I have figured out how to solder? Nothing crazy yet, just some fun bracelet links, but I’ll try to share a few tomorrow. Enjoy your evening!!

I now have both kids busy every morning! Woohoo! We made it through the birthday and I’m on track for a relaxing morning of bead making almost EVERY day for the next long while! Yipee!! I just want to pinch myself! Maybe I’ll even have time to list beads in the Mart sometime soon. Seems like forever since I have done that… Sheesh!! (In case you were wondering, I gave up on the new cart… if it ain’t broke, don’t fix it seems applicable here.) Alrighty then, please take a peek at my latest auction if you have a minute. Enjoy your evening!!

Of course you do!! Just added a new auction over on Ebay for a purse charm/pendant… What do you think? Add these to your ol’ handbag and you be a regular trendsetter!! Heehee…

I have seen beads EVERYWHERE this season. Hung on purses, jean belt loops, cell phones… everywhere! Well my favorite accent spot I have to say is the purse. You can see my purse below. I have to admit though that those large tabs are a bit heavy to lift around all day! The price we pay for fashion! Anyway, I’m working on making some light little add-ons to work as either a pendant or perhaps as a purse embellishment, your choice of course. I’ll have one later today with maybe another new auction… We’ll have to see how the afternoon goes. Happily everyone in my house is pretty calm today after the past festivities!!
