This page has been naked for a while – namely because I had been so busy working on the party I was planning. The party was a SUCCESS and I am so grateful to all that attended and felt moved to purchase some of my pieces. It was terribly stressful however, so I have needed some down time before I update the Etsy shop (which requires much prep work and pictures) or work on any new designs. I haven’t even cleaned my work area and quite frankly it scares the bejeezus out of me. I just shut the door to the office and pretend it isn’t there. It’s too bad my husband uses the other half of the office daily. He doesn’t say anything about the mess, but I see it in face. His eyes plead with me daily to get off my lazy arse and clean. Here’s the problem – I have a pretty full plate and I don’t like to clean at all, much less budget time out of my already busy day to do so. It is – I believe- our white elephant
I would like to say I have pictures of the party we had (Thank you DECA Group for donating a fantastic space!) but I don’t. My husband took three pictures with his cell phone and they all sort of suck (sorry honey). I DO have some fantastic photo ops coming up though – and I will be happy to tell you about them …..starting….
NOW
We are having a benefit for my cousin Bryce next month at Manhattans Restaurant (yum) and we are holding a Chinese silent auction. I don’t know the particulars as of yet but I do know that we are auctioning off many AWESOME_O SUPREME_O gifts and baskets. One of which will be a custom made jewelry box and necklace made by yours truly! The benefit will be the weekend before St Patties day and in our family tradition will be Irish themed (you know how we do..and if you don’t let me tell you – this family bleeds, pees, and cries green, white, and orange). The jewelry box will be a masterpiece of mine (or at least I plan it to be) and the necklace is still in the design process – needless to say I plan it to be breathtaking. If perchance you gaze upon it and do not lose your breath – probably I could punch you in the gut until you do so (j/k).
I think I will probably do a photo journal of the jewelry box so you can see all of the work that went into it. At the very least I will let you see it when I am done.
Now if you will excuse me – my son has jacked the volume all the way up on his CD player and I do believe that much “Baa Baa Black Sheep” being blasted directly into the ears of a 16 month old aren’t exactly “doctor recommended”.
Laters,
