Summer 2012 Anthems...

This song hit me when we were in Lake Tahoe and my daughter asked to buy the song for her Kindle.  We let her get it, and soon lived to regret it.  To prove that what goes around comes around, she then proceeded to crank the song up and put it on repeat.   We heard this song over, and over, and over again.  So much we finally had to ask her to please turn it off!  (anyone else remember doing this as a kid to their parents?  I do.  *ahem* Milli Vanilli)

However, I do like the song.  It has a good beat, and I have a very strong image when I hear this song which has sorta been ruined for me by seeing this video. 

The words Chasing the Sun have really stuck in the wheels of my mind, and I find myself with a perfect image of a lone mustang running across a desert landscape.  He appears to be "chasing the sun" as he runs toward the horizon and the sun in all of it's colorful glory is setting behind a mountain in the distance. 

I'm going to have to work at it to get those boy banders out of my head and get my mustang back! ;-)

Sale section....

Hi all!  I just added several pieces to a sale section in my shop on Etsy.  Mainly they are designs from Spring and Summer and even a couple from Fall and Winter of 2011! 

This is a last chance section.  I've been asked by a couple of different organizations to make donations and whatever doesn't sell will be donated, re-purposed or I'll be adding to my own personal collection!

I'm pretty sure I have a few more pairs of simple beaded earrings that I had made as fillers for the show I had planned to do this Fall.  Unfortunately, the show has been cancelled.  I won't be doing any other shows this Fall.  Really, I'm totally ok with this.  I really enjoy selling online, but shows not so much. 

I'm going to try getting everything I have together and add them to the sale section, so please check back over the next week or so!  Perfectly priced to stock up on gifts for co-workers, in laws, stocking stuffers etc..

Have a fabulous Tuesday!  :)

Autumn inspirations...

 Agua Nueva Agate and a faceted Garnet beaded chain.  Love this stone! 

 Bertrandite and Sterling Silver custom sized ring

That gorgeous stone didn't need much embellishment, so all the detail is on the back!

I have so many gorgeous stones, the Bertrandite I've been hoarding for a year or more.  The Agua I just got a couple of weeks ago but wanted to work with it right away.  Both stones are reminiscent of the changing colors of Autumn.  

Just listed in my Etsy Shop!!!
