This is cool!

O.k., it is quite late (12:07). Home from work, but can't sleep. I was dabbling with some odds and ends with jewelry. I came across a unique piece that my friend Lisa gave me. It is a kind of bead that looks like a rock. Lisa said it was made from women in India. How appropriate to my "Jewelry for a Cause."

Here I am and remembering that Lisa's birthday just passed, I decided to create this piece for her. I loved using the unique yarn (by the way, the earlier yarn piece sold)! I am excited to see her response!!!

Watching a cheesy movie while I am writing and creating.... I am tired!!! Gotta teach the gromms tomorrow morning!!! I better get to bed.

There finished!

I am pretty happy with the way my "TRUST" necklaces came out. Even though the clay was a little tough for me to work with, I think they look good. I can't wait to give them to the girls!!

Inspiration!

Many of my friends and I are embarking on another year of homeschoolng. While we know in our hearts, this is the right decision and plan that God has for us, there are still challenges. There is a sense of overwhelming with fitting in life, school, and some of us, work.

Just listening to what is going on, my inspiration came to a new piece. I am trying it out and hope it works. It is a Polymer clay cross, with the word TRUST. It is embellished with gems and paint. I am attaching the preliminary look. It is a little daunting working with clay. It tends to want to be used in a precise way. I am not a precise and detailed "gal."

Oh well! Here we go!
