well, to be honest, i haven't been working on making as many new things as i'd like, and i attribute that to rubbing kona's belly too much, eating too many cheez-its when i'm not really hungry, and having dance-offs with flojo (which i've still not won). i kid, partially. i have been busy with jewelry, but since about half of what i keep in my shop is made to order, sometimes that's more a priority than thinking up new designs. but i do have three new things to share with you though!
since the natural stone and brass arch necklaces have been so popular, i decided to do a variation on the original design by putting the arch to the side, and then keeping it below, but making it squared. i have several other stones i'm going to use for similar designs, and i can't wait to get those made because the stones (which include calcite and marble) are so beautiful!
the earrings weren't made to go on my website - although i may decide to add them soon - but instead for an amazing giveaway including three other great items on beca's blog (and she's giving away a pair of tumbleweeds sunnies)! i you haven't entered, be sure to do it because the winner will definitely not be disappointed!
two more things that are completely unrelated but you might want to know: last night i made boerenkool for dinner, and i think we have a new regular for mealtime rotation! second, i'm just about to finish up my first week of fat-free milk consumption, and i won't lie, this hasn't been easy.
so what have you been working on, and are you a fat-free milk drinker?
I'm not gonnna lie, I only drink fat free milk...or soy or almond milk...I don't like thick beverages! OH, and that necklace is beyond gorg! Xo Lori
ReplyDeleteI looove your new designs! (What else is new.)
ReplyDeleteI love those earrings! Also, EWW! Fat free milk is no fun, too watery! I'd much rather be fat and happy ;) Haha

We drink 1%. I can't really drink skim or whole! And when does the vlog featuring your dance-offs with Flojo come out? Because I'd give money to see that.
ReplyDeleteNice designs! I really like how you've put the brass in different places.
ReplyDeleteThat second necklace is just so lovely - can't get over the colour of the stone.
ReplyDeletebeautiful pieces! i love that you work with natural gemstones that's what i always used, then tried something new, and now i'm going back to my roots. i just got in my "studio" and made a few pieces the other night and it felt great. but it also felt good to take some time off ;)
ReplyDeleteand, i'm a non milk drinker. no dairy for this lady. personal choice. my middle guy had a milk allergy so we both gave it up. but when i drank milk it was always fat free.
have a great weekend
