My little helper...all this work tuckered him out. Morgan is constantly into all my stuff, if my work table wasn't messy enough now it is worse! It takes me three times as long to finish up something, I pray for the little rascal to go to sleep! He is so lucky he is so darn cute!
I can not believe Monday was my last post...where did the week go? We have been having a problem with our computer or at least with our browser Mozilla Fox, it seems it ran away....I am lost without it, nothing looks the same and it seems harder to post....please husband fix it soon!
The Nashville Flea Market was this weekend, I was debating on going in this terrible heat but the longing for some new beads made me go. Here is my stash...don't you just love the keys! The Chalcedony was a splurge, the quality of the beads were irresistable. 
I hope you all have a wonderful Sunday!

It will be a week on Saturday that this little guy joined our family. Captain Morgan is a hoot, plays hard then just falls asleep, I forgot how fun kitties are. Jack the gray tabby in the picture was not so sure about him there was lots of growling and hissing going on, but I think all of Morgans silly antics has finally turned Jack around. It sounds like two elephants running around the house, although there is still the occasional hiss and swat.
Wishes to you all for a great weekend.
I do not think I could settle on making one "type" of jewelry....My right hand wants to make one thing and my left another, thankfully they compromise and each has its turn to create different pieces.
Now for the other side of me...the side with a "past"...showing its age and patina and usually darker. I love working with old things and mixing them with newer findings.

I love working with resin from time to time, the pieces add a cleaner more modern look to my usual creations. I am really pleased with this bracelet, it has great color and is so comfortable to wear! I found these 1/2" X 1/2" bezels at Hobby Lobby and connected them with sterling jump rings. The Hobby Lobby near me is a wonderful store and have great sales every week. I have become friendly with Susan the lady that runs the jewelry department and she has has been able to get things I have asked for. I was thrilled to see a variety of bezels come in and she is always surprising me with new things. Is this a paid advertisement? Oh, Lorda God no, I just am a big fan of HL.

I stepped out of the box a little here with this piece. I had found some little pieces of white drift wood while on my trip to Nevada and I knew I wanted to create something from it. So smooth and white...I added a freshwater pearl as a perfect compliment. A raw edge piece of silk makes the perfect draping for this pendant.
He is so stinking cute!
I fell in love with these matte czech glass beads...so soft and colorful.

I love creating these eclectic charm bracelets...using the new and the old... the found and made.
An eclectic mix of new and old charms and trinkets. One of a kind pieces are all joined together to form this "Treasures" bracelet. Vintage brass stampings, antique mother of pearl button and an antique key. Resin charms made from vintage dictionary pages and an old Arizona tax coin.
