I’ve been so busy creating with my new supplies and I think I’m in love with Hilltribe silver now. I sold the most expensive item on my etsy store yet, which was actually a grab bag full of supplies from a recent studio clean out. Wouldn’t you have guessed that the most expensive thing I sell on etsy would turn out to be supplies!
I know that I was going to go and reply to all my deviantart messages and comment on everyone’s deviations but I went looking for a new car instead. I bought a silver Nissan Micra that I’m going to name “Betsy”. Every car I’ve ever had has actually been named Betsy and this one will be no exception. I love Betsy!
I’m so happy but in a penniless sort of way so I really have to keep my hand out of the cookie jar for a while. This is proving difficult since I keep seeing stuff that I really want so I’ve devised a cunning plan of hearting all the items that I’m going to demand as Christmas presents in a few months, lol!

My blog has had a make-over! I think it's much more simple and easy to read now.
I visited my DeviantArt page today with great intentions of replying to my messages but every time I blink there are like 100 more of them. I feel guilty for hiding out and not replying when people have taken the time to look at my work and comment on it so I'm going to go through them all at the weekend. I just hate sending repetitive messages and I want to look at other peoples work and give them some sort of valuable feedback. I hate sending messages like "wow, that’s great!" or "beautiful!" because It sounds like I didn't really look or I'm a serial bestfriender. I know it's much more useful for designers to hear what works or doesn’t work with the design.
I've gone mad making earrings lately. I started to make my own earwires, which I put off for a while because I was nervous that I'd forget to file one of them and somebody’s' ear would get ripped off. I understand that customers prefer jewelry that doesn't maim them, lol. It really is simple though, you just wind the wire around something like a fat marker then cut up one side like you would for split rings, turn a loop at one end, file the other end and that's it. Now if only it would stop raining, I could take nice photos of them all!!

This is such a nice idea, it's really whimisal and sweet and I think we could all do with one of these at times: -
