New Listings

Hello Everyone!

It's been a while since I've been around. A lot has been going on. For one, I've started another business, a weight control clinic. I started not only one, but two. One in Gilbert here in the valley (Phoenix valley) and another one up in northern Arizona in Flagstaff. I go up to that one twice a month. With all the business, my jewelry has been on the back burner for a while. With all this going on, I've retired also from nursing. I just couldn't keep up anymore. (I think I'm getting old! LOL!) So I started my second, or maybe it's third career. :) I still get to help people get healthier as well as thinner in the process. What a deal huh? Can't beat that!

Now I do have some new listings I want to share with you. I have these listed in my Etsy shop and a few of these in my Artfire shop as well. This pair of lovely pink Czech glass and brass earrings are perfect for Valentine's Day coming.

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday season. See you soon!

Peace,

Donna ♥

New Earrings ~ Hope

Here's my newest hoop earrings. I really enjoy making hoop earrings. I'll have to work on this and make some more! Hope is made of a thick gauge sterling silver wire, but the part that goes through your ear is 20 gauge. They've been tumbled to give them strength and shine. They have not been oxidized, but that can be done if you wish at not extra charge to you. I hammered part of the hoops just to give them a different texture. These are being offered in two of my shops, my Artfire Studio and my Etsy Shop.

The rest of this weekend was spent making our costumes for a Halloween party that we are attending next weekend. I promise, I'll take pictures of us in our costumes. Only this year I'm not making my husbands, he said that he has it all in control. He muttered something about being a Redneck Tooth Fairy....this scares me a bit!

Have a great week!

Peace~

~New Listing - Violet~

While I was sitting around this weekend not doing much, I decided to make this pair of earrings. I love to make clusters, they are so pretty. So Violet was born. She's really pretty, don't you think? She loves to show off her gems, as in stones. Now don't go thinking something different! She's made of artisan handmade lampwork beads, amethyst, garnets and sterling silver. You can find her temporary home in my etsy shop. Just click on her name and she'll be happy to show off her gems!

Hope you all had a wonderful weekend. We did, our daughter and her family from San Diego were in town. We had a wonderful time with the kids in the pool. They sure love that water!

Have a great day!

Peace~

My New Creation...Mystic~

Mystic is a lovely handmade pair of earrings made with entirely sterling silver and copper wire. I started with some copper wire, then I wire wrapped it with very fine sterling silver wire. There are silver and copper balls in various sizes wire wrapped with sterling silver wire on the lower part of the earrings. Then the earrings were oxidized and tumbled to harden and polish the wires. The earrings are 2 3/4 inches in length.

You can find these earrings and many more in my Etsy Shop.

Hope you have a great day!

Feathers In The Wind

While I was pondering over what to write in my blog today, I decided to create a pair of new earrings instead. Which I find to be a much easier task for me to do. You see, I don't write very well, I feel that I really don't have all that much to say that would be interesting. I don't lead a very interesting life! I go to work and come home, maybe create or do some housework and that's about it! Pretty boring don't you think?

So to just sit down and create a blog daily is most challenging for me to do. I sort of feel like I'm back in school, and we won't go there about my school academics, or the lack of them! Maybe that's part of the problem, I should have been learning how to write instead of daydreaming! I would also assume that I'm not the only one out there that has this problem. Right? So if you would bare with me, I'll eventually get the hang of this blogging thing and keep up on a regular basis. In the mean time, here's a pair of my new earrings that I listed this evening on Etsy. So not all of today was a loss!

Feathers In The Wind Earrings are made with Sleeping Beauty Turquoise gemstones and sterling silver. Click on the name and it will take you to the listing in my Etsy Shop.

Hope you all are having a great weekend!

Peace~
