100 designs + a tutu in 14 days

I have set a goal I know so HIGH that it's going to be nearly impossible to complete but that's the beauty of a goal, especially one as challenged as this!

This is the deal I set the 100 designs for the month of October but to no avail as of today, I've only completed 1 pair of earrings and half a necklace. I'm trying to build inventory for a couple of parties coming up in November and hopefully for those to following December.

You know the worst part is (you thought I gave you the bad news already - NO) I'm having designer's block (like writer's block, I have those too!), so I in stuck mode. I'll work through it besides...The Michaels' Challenge will help me at least get a couple of necklaces actually completed...we shall see!

8-28-10 Demo @Joann

This is the last demo I did at Joann (my place of work). I was a bit bored but the guests loved them.



The beads used are the Jesse James bead assortments. There are some cool bead set but you just have to know how to come of with a great design.



The second demo was a memory wire necklace. The beads are pink and purple cat's eye. The wire is purple colored wire. You guess it the guest loved it!

The next Demo is November 13, 2010 at Joann Etc. in Novi, Michigan

New Adventures...I'm getting published!!!

I am so happy to be announcing that I will be featured in the December 2010 issue of Bead Trends. Look out for the design titled Trapeze Earrings. I am so excited. I can't wait for the issue to be released.

I will post pictures of my featured design, Trapeze Earrings!
