Studio







Hello!
I am so excited - I have one follower and I have had positive feedback on my 1st post. Follower, that sound sort of like this is a cult - oh well!
Ok so I figured that it would be nice for folks to see my "studio" since I am, afterall, making art/jewelry. I also thought that it would be nice to show pics of my "girls." For those of you who do not really know me, when I say my girls, I am referring to my dogs.
I know, I know, what about my "real" girl, Rachael, well she is 16 so need I say more?? Plus she just got her 1st car today so I will not be seeing her for a while.

Ok back to my "studio." As you can see from my pictures it is state of the art. I know for someone who is really just starting out, it is truly amazing. Yes, my work space is in between a refrigerator and a shower. This is really convenient so that when I am in the work mode, I never have to leave the basement. Yes, my lovely "studio" is in the basement.

Pictures :
Top Pic: Bailey - I know she looks dead, but she is 14 years old and heading in that direction. Seriously, she has been the most wonderful dog anyone can ask for. She is the reason why I got into dog showing. (thanks Bay - love you!!)
Left Pic: Cindy AKA Ch Magic Cinderella Story SH. This is my little princess and my heart dog. Need I say more?
Right Pic: My "studio" The mirror is such a nice touch - NOT!!!
My 3rd dog is not pictured as she was sleeping on the couch in the other room - She is a fair weather friend - not sleeping on the floor to be near me. Maybe next time I will show you a picture of Shea.
Until next time...

Welcome continued

Sorry about that- I published too soon. Back to the dogs - they are the only living creatures who stay up with me until all hours of the night while I am making jewelry. Have to love that!

So I was told to make my blog like a soap opera to keep people coming back for more. While I cannot promise that, I will try to make it fun. Enjoy the ride!!!

Welcome

Hello and welcome to my blog.


I have been thinking of a reason for why I created this blog and I figured it out. I am the kind of person who needs immediate feedback or maybe not feedback but I want to show people what I make. Just ask any of my friends who are e-mailed pictures at 3am or are sent picture messages of what I just created at 7am on a Monday morning. With a blog I can post these pictures to my blog so that people can follow along with me when they want and not when I want them to.


Ok so will this blog only be for pictures of my jewelry? How boring - I think at least, plus there is my website and ETSY for that. I want to involve people in decisions in marketing and creating my jewelry. I also want to talk about my other passion - dogs. I love them - all of them!!!!
