Trouble finishing things and Firemountaingems competition

The banner on top of the page is actually a photoshopped unfinished bib necklace. And now that Firemountaingems.com has a competition going I would like to enter, I really have to finish this piece and take good photos. The best prize is a $1000 certificate to the website/store, even a pity price would be great since there are so many great jewelry supplies. But somehow I am stumped as to how to complete this piece. Of course I have tons of other things but I think this one is the most eye catching, and has a change, as they say on Project Runway, Make it happen!

Wire wrapping and picture taking

As a New Year resolution I wanted to work on a website at Weebly.com but the options are overwhelming. I also need to work on my picture taking skills, outside is ok, but inside and jewelry not so good. I spend my Christmas bonus on beads and wire wrapping materials, see this picture with Pigmee monkees and wire wrapped beads.

Etsy Sale ! happy Fourth of July ****

Sold this on Etsy today, now how do I make it to a post office from my new job? Getting motivated to post more

What happened since June?

What happened is that I got a new job. Totally unexpected since I was not looking for one.. Thought I would just stay at my job until the house sold and start something creative, never wanting to work in Home Care again. But I like my new job, surprise! I will have to keep working at the creative thing though since hubbie and I got future plans, but until than I will keep pinching myself  and get paychecks. Better paychecks. More money for art supplies :) So I worked on some dog tags. Fun, or as my son says "nifty" and when are you going to sell them. Well, when I have time/energy to take better pictures ofcourse!

Images of dimensional gel items

Put my things on the scanner, which is not as good as regular photos, but after working on ceilings this weekend I was looking for the easy way out. These are the mod pogdge dimensional magic earrings I mentioned in my post last week, and some other random things I am still working on.

The turtles need work, maybe some painting and more coating. The gel took longer to set
today since it is humid in Philly this weekend.

Getting used to the format

I am trying to get used to this blogging, getting myself a nice diary to speak.
Just noticed you can add pictures..
