Hello!
I have four followers - while I am thrilled with all of you, I am wondering if it is worth keeping this blog alive?
Please pass the work along so that I can solicit more followers. I think if I had more followers, it would be more exciting and we could actually discuss different topics.
So I ask of you, can you please ask your friends if they would follow along? That would be my holiday wish.
To all of my loyal followers happy holiday and have a wonderful new year!!
Thank you!

Almost Christmas
Hello!
Well the big day is a week away and my tree is finally up! Thanks to Tom for putting it up - all I have to do is decorate. That is the fun part. Hopefully he will also help be take it down.
Anyhow - had the last show of 2010 and what a great day it was. Met a lot of great folks and sold a lot of jewelry. Thanks to everyone who stopped by - Becky, Tim and Mario!
On the jewelry front made a few new pieces which I am very excited about. Textured metal WOW love it. What do you think?
Happy shopping all!!

Winter is Here!
Hello!
I am certainly not complaining but boy is in bitter cold here in Akron, Ohio. This is, however, the 1st winter storm and there is not snow so I am happy! I was able to take my puppy for a walk today which made me feel a bit better getting out in the fresh air. Staying home for as long as I have been home gets old. I have a new respect on folks who are home bound - that is for sure!
The big dog show is in Cleveland this weekend. It is a four day cluster so it is typically a big show but not for my two breeds and Piper is still too young to show. She does not turn 6 mos until Christmas! This is fine with me as she needs a lot of work on the grooming side she is a little mop!!! She is, however, doing well on the handling side - once she knows she cannot get away with things she is very good. She is very hard headed!
Christmas decorations - I did not put them up for the 1st time in FOREVER. They are down from the attic but just no energy to put them up. Plus, they will only be up for a few weeks. That seems like a lot of work to have them up for that length of time.
Just wanted to post a few pics of some pieces that I have created recently. I have a new obsession - Mokume-Gane - The earrings and ring are examples. It is mixed metals this pic is sterling and copper but the possibilities are endless!!! These earrings sold after 5 mins of being listed on Etsy so I guess other folks like it too! Enjoy!!!

Missing Phone
Good Morning!
I am doing a bit better slowly. Boy as you get older surgery gets more difficult. It is just so hard for me doing nothing! I think I want to do something but get very tired and then wind up laying on the couch for the rest of the day. Oh well I am grateful to have this time off to heal.
I did hear back from the hospital about the theft. As a matter of fact, I heard from 3 different people which is reassuring to me. Unfortunately, they will not pay for a replacement as it was personal property which was not medically necessary. I disagree - people go crazy in the hospital and need distraction:) Anyhow I will be replacing my phone as soon as I am well enough to leave the house - No, I have not left my house in 1 week WOW hard to believe it has already been 1 week since my surgery.
On the jewelry front, have had a lot of Etsy and on-line orders. Very happy with this holiday season - Thanks to all!!
Have no new pics to post as have not made anything new - have a great day!
