what a day

Well today rob took me to Urban Mill coffee shop for lunch, and to meet a lady that works there that is also puting on this mini craft show there.  She was excited to meet me and loved my jewelry.  She was a very energetic person.  Rob also got me a ring sizer, and printed off more cards.  I now have everything i need, including a cashbox.  So this is going to be like a really business for me.  Last year I would have never dreamed of this happening.  I was always a dreamer, but nerver really put my dreams into action. and with the support of Rob and other people i am actually going to make a dream come alive!   And believe me  I have been working hard on bracelets and rings.  this week I have to work, and I know that when i am at work I will be sweating and thinking of beads.  I think i might have some 'seperation anxiety" from my beads.  I didn't have to work all last week.  but I know they will be waiting for me when I get home.

post 21

we have a Fetal Alcohol Syndrome camp coming up in August. i am really looking forward to it, because I am helping to plan it. we have alot of fun things planned and a few professional speak about FAS.   but lately since I haven't been working, you can only guess what I have been doing during the day, well besides helping take care of kids.  Unfortuneatly its been to hot for the kids to play outside so it pretty crazy around here.  here are some new pics  the white, blue and black one is one I made for a former teacher. i am excited because I get to meet with her tomorrow for brunch.

Upcoming event

My friend Rob told me about a micro art sale that Urban Mills coffee shop is having in August. Rob asked if I would be interested in selling my jewelry there, and of course i said yes.  Getting the message out about Fetal Alcohol Sydrome is what my jewelry and message is all about.  I am super excited and have been beading my brains out for the last couple weeks getting ready for the show.   so here are some pics for the bracelets and rings I have made. 

Fourth of July weekend

bottom: 1 of the bracelets i made for my neighbor.

Well i have been very busy this past week and weekend with work, and beading, and celebrating the holiday up at the cottage.   I have made alot of rings in the last couple days.  And just yesterday i showed my nieghbor some of the rings and bracelets, and she wanted 2 bracelets the same colors for her and her friend.  so i got those done yesterday and today.  I can get bracelets and rings done pretty quickly when i done work.   besides i would rather be home in the air conditioning then at work bored and sweating.

Beach Day

Just got back from Grand Haven with Rob and his parents and Aunt.  I had a great time sitting on  the beach soaking up the sun.(got a little burnt though) and did some shopping.  Bead shopping that is. i got a few more colors of beads and a beading book called "Beaded Pictures"  i sure love doing beadwork. 
I don't have to work again til tuesday, so in that time guess what I will be doing?  Beads.  i am now into making rings.  i head is just filled with ideas, and designs.  i should have pics up soon
