The Amazing art teacher at my kids' school has been giving me some really fun ideas for things.   Ita is from Puerto Rico.  There's a tradition there:  When a woman becomes engaged, she gets to wear this fun set of acrylic rings.  They're always worn as a set of at least 3.  She's never been able to get ahold of  a set.  They're the easiest thing ever to make and i'm obsessed.  They can be any combo of colors, as far as I know.  It's gotten the creative juices flowing...lots of ideas for some fun variations percolating in my brain. ...

As you can tell, I go in fits and spurts with my posts.  I'm not very good at sitting down in one place and typing.  I better with being up and around.  Making things :).  I want to be better about sharing that stuff with you.  I am trying again to be better about it. It's been a busy fall with the kids.  SO much going on.  But I know it's the same for all of you.   Here's a new Crown set...what to name it?!

Here's the back-page ad for the festival Ad Book.  If you're in the Indy area that weekend, come see me!  I won't have things for sale, but am planning on having an informational booth set up---videos going of my work and workshop.

I haven't mentioned this yet, have I? I literally have nothing on the website yet.  but I have so many jewelry ideas to make out of the cool metal-scraps I have!!! I had to do it. It's printed up on the backside of my regular OWC business card.  So, it's real-- I mail a bunch of my business cards everyday in shipments.  But nothing on the site.  Maybe that's what I need to do today, eh?  Sigh.  I'd rather laser.  Feels more productive.
