Pairs

Do you ever go through phases where you get on an obsessive kick about one particular thing ... and then you do that same thing over and over again until you are tired of it ... and then you move on to the next thing and start the obsession all over again?

No? Just me?

Maybe I should start blogging about the obsession of the month because that is about how long they each seem to last.

And the winner for June is: bead pairs! 


Been having fun making just two of everything. It seems to be the perfect amount of attention that I can muster for the time being. Get on the torch. Make a quick little pair. Run off and do other things.

I mean, it is Minnesota summer after all. And given the choice between being inside and outside ... I choose outside every.single.time. 

Available for sale in my Etsy shop.

Let's go crazy and build a house and move in the middle of a pandemic while the world is on fire and supply chain issues abound. Sounds like fun. While we are at it, let's also make sure the kids are ripped from the school district they've known since kindy and introduce them to a whole new lot of kids ... during hybrid learning and mask mandates making it even harder to meet people. And since we are on a roll, let's tear down the one thing that keeps mama sane and pack the studio up first to get it out of the way. MAKES TOTAL SENSE . Fast forward two years and here we are. We survived. The kids survived. The GLASS survived. And we are all happy and thriving and better than we were before. The house is amazing. Our new school d

Wrist Candy

I don't know why I am suddenly obsessed with making bracelets. I don't even really wear bracelets much because I am on a keyboard most of the day and they tend to get in my way. Nevertheless, I find them absolutely adorable, fun to make, and the perfect amount of creative challenge. You can pack a lot of design elements into 8 inches 😳  I am also in spring cleaning mode and all those cute little tackle boxes with all their perfect little compartments are full to the brim and I really need to start making jewelry again to create space - for all the new components I keep buying. or making.  Because using craft supplies and buying craft supplies are two very different hobbies - in case you didn't know 😉 If you are in the mood to adorn yourself with new wrist candy, check out my Etsy shop.
