Welcome 2009


2008 has been quite the year, one that has shaped my life forever. I got married, bought a house, moved, adopted a puppy and dealt with my father-in-law becoming suddenly ill. New years are always exciting to me as I curiously think about all the possibilities of what's to come.

It's been snowing almost on daily basis here. My puppy Stanley enjoys the snow but gets cold quick. Look at his little pawprints! Awwwwww...
I find myself ordering supplies a lot more than I had expected to. I am happy to find a few stores online that offer FREE shipping and NO minimum order. This is great considering I just hate paying for shipping, especially when placing orders so frequently. Check out http://www.artbeads.com/ and http://www.fusionbeads.com/ for tons of awesome beads and supplies, plus free shipping for all U.S. orders!

Is Winter Over Yet?

I have to admit, the past few months have gone by extremely quick and with the holidays coming up, I know December will fly by. That leaves...about 2 more months 'til spring! I am getting everthing together for my new shop at etsy.com...my grand opening is planned for mid or late January but I know it'll take awhile to get things totally together. I have A LOT of jewelry to make and photos to take! I think I'll be happy with the end results though. I hope everyone has a wonderful, safe holiday season!
