It's Been a Busy Weekend

And not just because of all the Easter festivities.



Saturday, I met a fellow Etsy jewelry maker - Rachel of Oak Moon Designs. We had a fun hour and some talking and bead shopping in downtown Hillsboro. We even hit an antique store and browsed the cases...and I found a vintage necklace I can't wait to repurpose! Great chance for us both to spend kidless time on a gorgeous Saturday - and I hope we can do it again soon.







This was also a weekend of finishing projects. I finally got the pearl toggle attached on my embroidered cuff. I won't be selling it- it's not quite perfect, but was a lot of fun to make. I can't decide if it's worth it to perfect my skills on this kind of cuff...it sure was a LOT of work! Still, I like it enough to keep for myself - it's kinda cute, if slightly imperfect!










I also completed a set of dangly earrings and a peridot pendant I've been thinking about for some time now. Pictures of both are posted here, and both are available for sale in my Etsy store.


Tomorrow will be busy in another way. I have several items to list in my ebay store (including some great Coach sunglasses), and I need to finish writing the Monday feature. Makes me tired just thinking about it - guess I'll head for bed!

Here it is...my Red Aventurine necklace!

Finally got pictures taken and the listing up...

Now I'm nervous that no one will like it. Ugh. Listing is like sending your children out into the world...you love them, you feel they are special, but will everyone else feel that way too?

I know at the moment, my "Four Darlings" pendant is beat this in views...and while I like that pendant, it wasn't nearly the same labor of love! Oh well.
