New Earrings!

I rarely create earrings. I love them, I do. I just think they are alot of work for such little shapes. I have to say, the least favorite thing I love about making my pieces is the sanding and polishing. Anyway, here are my first dangles, small star and heart shapes!

Warming up!

I am a bit rusty on writing. I have been through one rough road since the last time I blogged!! Things have settled down a bit, and I can't complain. I'm quite happy!

Let me tell you about my first big event! I have been doing well on improving my jewelry, and learned new techniques. Creating my jewelry just makes everything better! A couple weeks ago, I received a message from an event coordinator for the Buchanan High school's Fourth Of July firework show! Yippee! I had been doing small craft fairs in my neighborhood! So this was a big deal for me.

I went to the thrift store.

I found a wonderful vintage Tupperware cake holder display thingy for $1.50! Oooh! I now have a little bit of height! I took it home to spray paint a melon-ish pinkish color, (please forgive me dear Tupperware Gods), and I thought it looked great! I then created this huge cupcake that will now it will hold jewelry all around. I also made a few bows, and put my cabochons in the center. This was a hit!! I never realized so many chicas liked bows and hair flowers! I attached then to the top of my huge cupcake.

The day of the event, my sweet honey, Juan, helped me out and greeted people. He even sold items! I was overwhelmed at times, and wasn't able to wander or leave my booth at all. Lots of ladies asked how I created my pretties. Shhh! My secrets ;)

Let me tell you, this day was so hot! 107 - 108 degrees I think! My chair was made of this weird cheap nylon, and made my flowy dress stick to me and gave me total wedgies! Ugh! That was the worst thing about that day!! Lol! Anyway, I did good, and the night cooled off so much, I slept like a baby.

So, I've learned alot about doing this event! I am still working on creating a better display, and I've been working on pendants this week, and I'll post some new things I'm creating real soon. Oh, and next event, I will wear big comfy chonies, too.

What am I doing? More Resin

13 years old and a brat!

I weighed myself yesterday morning. I lost 5 lbs. That's not too much being that I started Weight Watchers again and have been following it for about 2-3 weeks already. BUT i did stop exercising. I feel bad about that. I used to walk everyday, but it's so flippen hot around here. I haven't used the treadmill either. I'm so lazy. I have a liking for E bay. I have been addicted for a week or two. I bought makeup and hair products.
Last weekend the family went up to Yosemite. Our first time. We loved it! We went to see Half Dome- which is just beautiful! AND we seen a couple waterfalls. Splendid. You really should go see it if you haven't already. I seen so many tourist there. I live so close to Yosemite, but I just took advantage of it by not going up to view it. I was missing out. It was breath taking.
My daughter has been bad lately. I really hate the new school she is at. As long as she graduates, I'll be oh so happy!
Well, Im making dinner already. I found a recipe in Henry Hill's recipe book for Lemon Basil chicken. It looked good. I love the story of Henry Hill. I also read the story his children wrote about him, too. He was such a bad father! But a funny gangster, and a good cook.

whats new

Im horrible at writing in my blog. What should I talk about?

Well, I came to a settlement on me court case I had going.It was an ugly adventure. AND it took a long time.

I got a tattoo. I drew a design up, and my artist put in his own thoughts. Very well combined. Its not quite finished yet. I need to go back to get color. So far, its just an outline. Its a bunch of junk food. I love it.

I colored my hair again. It was a faded hot pink. It faded horribly. You could see the bleach yellowing from underneath. Thats never good. I told the hair stylist how I loved purple, and pink, too. So she combined them. Its a hot bright purple! I love it! Its so beautiful. Way prettier than the hot pink.

I need to go to San Diego next month. My best friend is going to graduate law school. How exciting!! Im very proud of her.



Thats all for now. I'm going to go stuff my face. :)
