Chinook's What Would You Do Wednesday Challenge



Mellisa's Challenge.... Accepted!





NValentine Studio



Mellisa over at Chinook Jewelry loves throwing out these Wednesday challenges and, I must admit, they make me think. 

I decided this should be a bracelet charm (I have no way of knowing how big/small this is, so I'm just guessing, here).  My first choice of accent would be these beads I found on Etsy.

My next choice are these sweet little lampwork beads. Veeerrry nice!

 Because I don't want the focal to be overwhelmed, I'm keeping this simple... no chain, no spacers and an antiqued copper toggle clasp from Lima Beads (you'll have to click the link to see it... they won't let me link the picture up but it's perfect, trust me!)

Kate's Artisan Jewelry

And I'd round it all off with this pair of earrings from Kate's Artisan Jewelry on Etsy:



Okay... it's your turn.  What would YOU do?





Pics After A Delay

Oh, my gracious!  I had no idea how hard it would be to re-take all the pics of the things I had in my Etsy store as well as get new pics of all the things I'd made to add to the store! Then, on top of that, I got sick last weekend and wasn't even able to take the pics until Monday night.  At which point I learned about photo editing.
Fun.
Right.
I love my new camera and my new table top studio, but I do NOT want to get either of them out again any time soon (which is a really ridiculous thing to say since I'm not going to stop creating!)
Anyway, here's a few previews of what's going to be in the shop by this weekend! (I hope! I plan!!)
Enjoy :)

I went SO nuts on the earrings! You don't even know! This isn't a 1/4 of what I have to put in the store (phew!) and I plan to have it all done over the weekend? Stay tuned, folks, and see if she escapes from Ward B! (hahahahaaa)

A Treasury Of Headpins

by Sue Beads on Etsy

I created another treasury over on Etsy. Allow me to share it with you.  It's all headpins, either lampwork glass or enamel, and all the artists are quite good!  I'm still learning how to network but this seems like a good way (plus, I drool over everything and get some great ideas for creating more jewelry!)
