It was a dark and stormy night. JewelryDonna bumbles along, making one mistake after another......wondering if this final blog will happen.....or, will I keep starting over until the sun rises?
This improperly edited hickeydoo, is what I plan to send along as a thank you gift, with a purchase from my gift line on Etsy. I love the idea. It is a charm on a small clasp.
I have been down right suffering since we last visited. I am forcing myself to learn all about Etsy. I love to make jewelry, especially gift jewelry. Depending on who gives it...someone could have it for decades. I make things that, if someone gave them to me, I would not want to part with them.
I love how adaptable those bracelets are. They can tie a lot of different things together very well. Take a look at these color options that are set in the pendants below...so easy to wear. You can see a glimps of those charming ear rings I can't stop making.
I played around trying different dangle options. It made me think about Forest Gump. Jenny taught him how to dangle. I am unable to get my super old and on its last leg computer to download another picture. I estimated that I watched the movie "Forest Gump" around eight times. Ha, that's nothing. I have watched the movie " Leap Year" maybe fifteen times. I love the cliffs . My big dream is going to visit Wales someday. And Ireland of course!!! I am planning to go watch that movie tonite again when I am finished with this blog post. It calms me down.
In case you haven't noticed, I like close ups. These pictures are too close though. Something else to work on.....Just because you can, doesn't mean you should.
These are the last two designs I am planning to build for my gift line. I can change them in so many different ways. I have three more pieces that I will be sharing in my next blog post. Yes I am planning to keep doing the work that I need to do to get this whole thing rolling. I have a long way to go.
In closing, I just want to share one more quote with you....
Every gift which is given, even though it be small, is in reality great, if it be given with affection.....Pindar
The mom heart was given to me by my children when they were little ones. Rob made the resin filled bezel and I made a pendant with it.
ONE LAST THING: Today B'sue came down the little antiques mall where I share my jewelry for now, Bee's Antiques in East Palestine, Ohio. We made a little video presentation on how to get started selling a line of jewelry, and I how I plan to build some clientele locally, as well as online.
Aren't we a pair?
As always, my best to you!!!!!
Much Love,
JewelryDonna #hotmess
Please keep reading the blogs. We have all worked so hard. Thank you B'sue!!!!
