Inspired by dance...
Well...I think I have my mojo back...been dragging my feet about PMC for the last couple weeks..not sure why...I'll blame it on the weather...yeah...the weather....that'll work!
Anyway, as I was watching 'So You Think You Can Dance', one of the choreographers had on some earrings that inspired this design...what do you think?

Have a great Saturday...it is supposed to be 90 here today...I'll believe it when my phone tells me it's true...; )

Sold...but I have lots more!

I took all my Precious Metal Clay jewelry to the Friends of the Library store in NW Portland. They have a great Pop-Up store where everything is handmade by local artists...very cool...if you're in Portland, you have to stop by...
I also took several vintage bead bracelets... this one sold over the weekend...woohoo...
I'm in a bit of a quandary this week...I want to make more jewelry, but some ideas for papier mache pieces keep running around in my head. Good thing I can do just what I want...ahhhh.....life after 60...it is good.

Hey, Hey, it's my birthday...and I gotta say...I don't think I've changed too much!!! This was me at 3 and all I want to know is...how did I get to be so old??? I'm with John McCartney...will you still love me, when I'm 64???

Calling all LEOs ...
you can show who you are with a roar or a subtle symbol (altho Leo's are not known for their subtlety... and I know, I am one!)
Check out my Etsy site and you'll see other zodiac symbols I have for sale...

I've taken a few weeks off...and now the studio is cleaned up after our big garage sale... wow...we put all our crafting goodies on 3 long tables to sell...and couldn't believe how much 'stuff' we had that we just didn't need. We're swearing off Michael's for a while...that's a dangerous place for someone to go who is creative.

Now it's back to working with my PMC and getting to the rest of the zodiac...
I'm hoping everyone is having a tolerable
summer...
in the NW we keep complai
ning about no sun...
but it's definitely better that sweltering heat and floods.

I hope everyone is staying safe...happy creating...

New Zodiac Pieces

Zodiac Symbols: Taurus, Sagittarius, Leo, Cancer and Aquarius








These are the first 5 of the 12 zodiac symbols
tha
t I have designed for the precious metal clay.
I just got more clay and the others will be up for sale next week.
They all have a word that is
associated with the sign
and a couple crystals in th
e signs colors.
I'm still going to do the other kind that I started with...
the zodiac figures...
and
I should have them up on my Etsy site in the next couple weeks too.

It feels great to get back in the studio creating...

Tell me what you think about the new designs...

Happy PINK Saturday

HAPPY PINK SATURDAY TO ALL...

This is another of my...
STIX... again, for Breast Cancer Awareness...with the word Free...
and lots of vintage and new beads that you can...stick...anywhere the pin will attach. Check out my Esty site to get the scoop on this pin and several others...

I'm finally getting back in a routine in the studio...after our trip to LV, for the Licensing Show. It was an experience...106 degrees outside and about 65 inside and our booth was right under an AC duct...I could have used a big parka and some muck-lucks... Deidre (sissy) came back with a cold...and has been down until today (Friday)...but she got a lot of good contacts...
and is beginning to have contract talks. I guess all our hard work for 6 months paid off.


I'm working madly on the precious metal cla
y zodiac charms...here are a couple of

the symbols in line drawing
s...



Aires...the ram




Capricorn...the goat



Pisces...the fish





They will all have a word that is connected to the sign and beads and swarovski crystals in the signs colors...attached to the bottom of each charm...


Have a great Weekend everyone....KRISTINE

STIX


I'm still working on the zodiac designs for the precious metal clay, but wanted to add these fun little pieces of 'bling' to my Etsy site.

They are called...STIX...bling with a point...because they are stick pins and they have a little message. Each 'Stix' either has a word or a charms letting you know wh
at they are all about.

This one is for Breast Cancer Awareness, and has the word POWER and a little pink ribbon charm attacked.

They can be worn on a hat, collar, or purse
or added to a present or tucked inside a card. Just a little something to let someone know you are thinking of them...or wear it yourself to let everyone know how you are feeling.

Thanks for stopping by....
