Making some Crochet Christmas wreath pin's..

I have recently also learned how to crochet.  Thank God for the Internet.  I have learned so many new ways to crochet and make jewelry.  So many creative neat people out there making beautiful things.  I wish I could find a way to connect more with my fellow jewelry makers and crocheter's.  I've been working hard on my holiday creations.  I went to my first bead store yesterday.  Bead Craze in Tyler, TX.  What a neat bunch of folks.  Very helpful .  I just sat there in awe for a moment at all the choices and most everything in there had a great sparkle.  My husband went with me and even he picked out some neat stuff for me to use in my jewelry.  It was a great day.  The countdown has begun for Christmas in the Park.  I'm getting nervous and very excited.  I hope it all works out like I want it too.  I really need to get going on figuring out how to create my own web site.  I use the Etsy site but would love to have my own E-commerce so I don't pay that fee they require on a sale.  I also need to find out what the state of Texas requires to start my business.  I talked to the bank yesterday and they gave me a heads up on what I need to do but finding out how has proved difficult.  Well all back to making more beautiful elegant jewelry and maybe some more Christmas wreaths.  Thank you for reading today.  Much love...

Designing

Well the holidays are once again approaching.  I'm working hard designing some Christmas bracelets, earrings & necklaces.  A good friend of mine just gave me a bunch of old vintage beads and baubles.  I've also been working hard on taking the broken pieces and trying to make them new again.  We will  be reserving the spot this week for Christmas in the Park here in Arp, Tx.  I have never been so anxious or nervous about something in a long time.  If there are any jewelry designers that would like to help with ideas or techniques please contact me.  Learning something new or how to do something better is key to me.  I plan on getting into metal stamping as well. I need to sell more to be able to afford the materials for that though.  Thank you all for taking the time to read my blog.  I will post some new content soon with some pictures.  Much love..:)
