Photography






So why is taking pictures so hard? I do o.k. I guess, but it's hard to get up close detail on alot of items. I sure could use some help! Indoor, outdoor, natural lighting, making a photo box; yeah, yeah, I know outdoor natural light looks the best. So today I get my husband to help me outside to take a few pictures of my newest items. Damn mosquitoes! The minute I step outside I'm eaten alive! Of course Benn doesn't get bit!
So as you see I've made some new earrings, a few are custom orders, and the others are posted in my Etsy store today. Don't forget to check my store for MEMORIAL DAY SALE! Big earring sale BOGO. Also FREE SHIPPING ON ALL ITEMS IN STORE.
Here's a custom ordered bracelet that I made for someone. The beads are from Moon Stumpp of Mixed Media Jewelry, then I used red agate cube beads and some Vintaj brass findings. She liked the way I used the Greek leather (which I used on the Cowgirl bracelet: see Etsy listing) so I added a knotted double strand to the look.

I do have a couple of these beads left, so I'm thinking of doing a bracelet with one bead as a center focal and using some viking knit wire work for some of it. Check back with me for the picture. Enjoy your holiday!

I tried some new snacks in this months box, so get ready for some chocolate! ~dutch cocoa sun-crunch These are cocoa flavored sunflower and sesame seed clusters. Medium strength taste wise on the chocolate, but I love the saltiness of the sun-crunch itself. 6 grams of protein per serving; that's pretty good too! ~dark cocoa almonds~ If you like dark chocolate, you'll love these! 4 grams of protein on these per serving. ~dark chocolate berry trail mix Out of the other trail mixes that I've tried from Naturebox , this one is my favorite. It's a good mix of dried fruits and nuts, including cranberries and cherries, cashews and pistachios, plus tiny chips of dark chocolate that gives it that flavor punch. 4 grams of protein ~flax fortune coins~ Taste just like flattened fortune cookies with the added benefit of flax seeds. Flax seeds are full of omega-3's, and are said to be good for helping reduce your risk of heart disease, cancer, stroke, and diabetes...

Post July 4th workout and update

Image
I took off a week from running since my legs were hurting everyday, all day. So it was a bit challenging to start back up this week. I'm so greatful for the cooler mornings that we've been having. Today: 1.77 miles Weight: let's not talk about it; I'm on a see-saw right now. Eating fairly well. Staying away from sweets. Bought a new swimsuit yesterday, so can start swimming when it is too hot to run or walk. Not your traditional swimwear; I wanted something to exercise and do laps in. It's more for cross-training. More to come..... To read my previous post. go here .
