Making Memories Lampwork Bracelet

Each time I get to work with a customer I feel so honored!  When we work on a piece of jewelry to honor a life lived and memories shared, I feel so happy to know that we are creating a unique piece with a special person in mind and have created an heirloom.

This is my recent custom design!  The selected glass colors, sterling silver charms, and all pieces were designed with lots of thought and time.

I’d be honored to work with you if you want a unique piece of lampwork jewelry.  Contact me and let me know.

Unfailing Love Lampwork Bracelet

SOLD OUT!

 IF YOU ARE INTERESTED IN ORDERING THIS AS A CUSTOM PIECE, CONTACT ME.

I have a bracelet for you that has those lovely plum and purple colors in it.  Such rich and warm colors.  I just chose some of the beads and showed you a close-up of them so you could see some of the details.

Grab it while you can.  I only have one!

Open House…..yeah….well…..

You know how some times “something” has to give?  Well this year the something was my Open House.  I had made pieces and didn’t edit them and put them on the website because I honestly spent my time working on custom pieces for Christmas for my customers.  My custom pieces take priority over Open House as I’m sure you can  understand.  My apologies.  I put three pieces up that I had made and can ship them on 12/20/10 if anyone is interested in purchasing a bracelet for Christmas.  It will arrive on the 22nd or 23rd. 

 

I have another one I’m still working on editing.  The colors are plum colors. 

We’ve been visiting with family this weekend and have eaten so much food and hopefully burned off the calories consumed by swimming in the swimming pool, but I doubt it.  Oh well.  Enjoy life!  We’ve laughed and had a fabulous time just being together. 

NO WAY!

Can I just tell you that I can’t believe it has been THAT long since I posted!!!  NO WAY! oops.  Sorry.   Time has been flying.  I hear it flapping around my ears this very moment.  Surely you are experiencing it too! 

Well, I guess I should follow up with the post that should have followed many, many weeks ago with pictures of the “Life Is A Circus” Bracelet.  My friend came over and she rummaged through my beads and pulled these out for me to put together for her.  She grinned when she put it on.  How fun it was to watch a customer (and friend) make her own design before my eyes.  Here it is.

 

Ok, so on to news in my family.  Well, we had a wonderful Thanksgiving here and didn’t travel so it made it a relaxing and great time for our family.  The tree still isn’t up but that is coming tomorrow night if all goes as planned.  HA!  Did you enjoy your Thanksgiving?

I’ve been crafting and creating here and there.  I’ll put together a collage now and post it tomorrow.  Deal?  Deal.

Now, on to business news. 

YES,

I’m going to do the Open House again this year!  It is a comin’.  Just hang in there for those of you who have been asking.

Do you think we should give it another name?

    Let me hear from ya’ll and let me know if another name would be appropriate because it isn’t like you all are strolling through my home (which I’m thinking of doing next year). 

So pipe up and let me hear from you!!!  Bring out the names.

“Freedom” Friday

How are you all doing?  We are doing well here {thank God} and I’m now comfortable with the school routine in the morning.  I should have it down by now, right?  It has been a FEW weeks!!!  Uh…4 weeks.

I’ve been doing crafts here and there, when I snag a few moments, so I’ll take some pictures soon and share them with you.  Easy, fast, simple crafts but they have helped me get my creativity flowing. 

Freedom Lampwork Bracelet

This bracelet is a piece that can be added to your wardrobe to make the perfect “pop” on your wrist.  It’s simple, it’s cute, it’s turquoise colors.  You know you all LOVVVVE  turquoise!

Have a great weekend and I’ll be back soon with craft pictures.

Spring fever has hit me bad and I CANNOT WAIT till the weather warms up and the birds start to sing.  I have wonderful ideas floating around in my head and plan on working on beads to brighten up my shop for SPRING.   I also have a few new design ideas that I’m looking forward to putting together soon.  I guess all of that time either in the bed, on the couch, or on the floor playing, has taken its toll on me.  I just want my energy level to catch up with my creative streak.   For now I’ll enjoy the snow that is currently falling, drink hot chocolate tomorrow and break out the ready-to-bake cookies tomorrow.  I plan on spending a cozy day at home with the family. 

Have a great weekend! 

Full of Adventure

Someone (I can’t name names because this is a surprise), who has lived a most adventurous life, is receiving a custom bracelet this year for Christmas from her friends.  Oh, what wonderful stories she has of her adventures and trips I am told!  She is “Full of Adventure” and is still going strong and she is 70+ years old.  I hope to have wonderful tales to tell as the years go by of places I have been able to see and adventures I have been able to share with my loved ones.   Anyone else have big (or small) dreams that you hope to fulfill?  I want to travel to New Zealand first and then Italy and then France.  I can dream! 

It is almost time

Did you forget?  Well this is your reminder that tonight  at 8:00 EST, I’ll put the link up on my website to the open house.  I’ve been working, working, working to get everything ready and I just worked through the night editing photos and building the pages.  Surprisingly, I’m alert!  It could be the coffee! 

I’d love for you to come back tonight.  Stop in for a visit online and leave a comment, make a purchase or two or three, or send me an email to let me know you visited.  I’ll be around tonight.

Have a good Monday!

Shop, shop, shop

The online Open House is in one week!

For those of you who weren’t part of this event last year, let me explain how it works.  Next Monday night at 8:00 p.m. EST, I will put up an Open House link on my website.  All of the items in the Open House portion of the website are ready to be shipped to the FIRST person who purchases the item. Only one of each item will be available IN the Open House portion of the website. 
Once an item is purchased, it will show as sold out and that item will no longer be available.  Your purchase will arrive gift-wrapped and ready for you to put under a tree or in a stocking.  I will leave the Open House link up till Friday evening but then I will remove the link till…next year.  Oh what fun!  If you have any questions, contact me and I’ll be happy to answer you.

Spunky

This piece is already sold, but I wanted to show you a recent custom designed bracelet that I created for a customer.  It is adorable!  Black and white with a simple, but fun twist.

Just Because Bracelet

Follow this link to see.

Enjoy your day!

Kaleidoscope Lampwork Bracelet

Those little beads have been sitting together and I couldn’t wait to put them all together into a wonderful collection of colors.

Two of a Kind Bracelet

Have a look-see at a new one in the shop.

Five Years Younger

If I use my muscles in my forehead to hold up my eyebrows, I look five years younger!  Really!  I don’t know when it happened but my eyelids have started to make me look tired and older.  I know it is age.  Come on now, I’m not that silly but still, I don’t care for this.  So, I’m just going to look perpetually surprised now and help me look younger.  I could use any tricks out there right now.  LOL

This piece is already sold but I thought I would share a recent custom design that had shades of lime green, bright yellow, light yellow, and black.  The customer wanted more crystals than lampwork beads so I only included a few.  It is a cheery piece and we also put a Mom charm on it to make it personal.   It makes me smile and I thought it was just “Too Fun.”
