Hope everyone had a great 4th.

Hope everyone had a safe and happy 4th of July holiday. Spent the day in Wamego at the car show, parade and ended at my oldest son's house to watch the fireworks. Our little town of Wamego, KS has the best fireworks in this area. They last for almost 45 minutes. For a little town, they really do put on a great show. Had today off from work and got a little done around the house. Moved my photo studio to the basement, giving me more room for a work area on my jewelry. Also stained a couple of shelves to go up over my work table. Hopefully will make things a little more accessible.

Well, better get stuff laid out to take to work tomorrow. It is hard to go back after 4 days off.

UGH!!!

Happy Weekend

Hope everyone is having a great weekend. It has cooled down here somewhat 95 degrees with 50% humidity. This is the first day the heat index hasn't been 110+. But it is still too hot for me, but my tomato and pepper plants are begging to be weeded and watered.

Haven't had the creativity to tackle any jewelry projects lately. Well, better get outside and get busy. Everyone have a great weekend. Stay safe and stay cool.

Take care

What is up all?

Well, Kansas is being Kansas. The forecast for this week is pushing 100 degrees and humid. The heat index is suppose to be 110 degrees.

I have come across some really great people lately. Pam has developed a really great social site Coiffures Community. Through there I have made some really great friends. Wish I could have them as neighbors, but cyber neighbors will have to do. (Hugs and Keep on Truck'in Ladies).

I have also became part of a great community on 1000 Markets. Being part of the Mid-West Market has been a great experience. There are some really wonderful and talented artists there in all different crafts. Please stop by and check out their stores at the Midwest Market

Until next time, everyone try to stay cool.

Hope everyone is having an excellent weekend.

I am still dabbling with organizing my office/studio. Still trying to find ways to arrange everything to make it functional. I still need to find a way to work in a play area for my parrot. He has to always be int he same room with mom or he tends to drive my husband nuts while he is watching TV. I currently have a very simple PVC pipe arrangement, but it isn't able to hold multitude of toys to keep him occupied and let me work. But space is an issue, not much room in here with the computer hutch, 30 gallon aquarium, work table, shelves for my bins of bead and jewelry making supplies, file cabinet and bins of bird toy supplies. I am sure will will take me a month of Sundays to find a configuration that works.

I finished a pendant and am working on a ring. I have a few project ideas running through my head which makes it hard for me to complete the items I told myself I an going to do before starting anything new.

Finally



Finally getting my office/studio organized in to a very useful room. I still have a few areas to address, but getting close. I also still need to work on the perch I made for my parrot so he can come in the room with me. He tends to scream when he is left in the other room with my husband. He only wants mom. The perch I put together is just a little low to the ground and he climbs down and then climbs up my leg to sit on my shoulder. As he is now and peering at the computer screen like he can read what I am typing. I am just waiting for him to tell me I made a typo. It is really difficult to try to construct a jewelry piece with his help.

Here are pictures of my latest projects.
