It's Friday and I've been busy!

Sorry for the delay in getting new items in my Etsy shop as I hoped I would last week, but I had "day job" business to attend to last week and didn't get to finish my projects that I was working on. I did get to read and post in the blogs that I follow last night, and did some reading, got to bed late.....
Wanted to start today fresh (get up early) and get working on ALOT of projects that I have under wraps. Soooo I did work out this morning (Lisa) and was hoping to post a picture of our "painted" living room; haven't done that yet, maybe later tonight I'll come back and post.
I finished 2 jewelry pieces today. One is a funky, rather bold lampwork bracelet with sterling silver, Greek beads and viking knit wire work for the band. The other is another funky piece that I'm calling "You Rock". It consists of funky designed artisan polymer clay beads, artisan made bead caps and the whole piece is oxidized, with an oval link sterling silver chain. You'll have to come back later for pictures, as I started to take some outside, got a few and I want to finish by taking some inside with my light box. (I'm still experimenting with light and all trying to get the best pictures)
Next up: I'm ready to open my "destash/jewelry supply shop" on Etsy. Today I sorted, cataloged, priced, and took outside photos, but only got through half of what I want to sell; still want to try some inside shots with the light box. I might get to posting some items tonight (since I'm on a roll!) I will be posting pendants, lampwork beads, Vintaj brass findings, Mykonos Greek beads and more!
I've got to make some extra money soon so I can get a tent, table, etc. for outside shows that will be starting up here soon now that the weather is starting to cool down. Does anybody know where I can get cheap tent, lights, tables? I might try Craig's List.
I'm heading over to my Etsy shop now: http://devinedesignsjewelry.etsy.com to have a FRIDAY HAPPY HOUR SALE. Please stop by!

recently came across your blog and have been reading along. I thought I would leave my first comment. I don't know what to say except that I have enjoyed reading. Nice blog. I will keep visiting this blog very often.

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 .

Well! I'm feeling a little happy today! I made some earrings for the gallery and took them there. I have to admit; I almost don't feel like my current work is not "good enough" to be in this shop. What beautiful paintings, artisan made pottery, wall hangings, glass! You can find it here: http://www.paintedfishgallery.com Then I went and picked up my check from working last week. Came home to find 3 sales on my ETSY supply shop and 2 sales in my ETSY jewelry shop! Yeah! Now here's something for you. I'm having another giveaway.
