A word about that book I'm making the "tuffet" project from that I mentioned in my last post: I've had it for quite a while but only attempted one project, a triangular box and never completed it, all i had left was the lid too.
Anyway, if you're into bead-weaving and boxes like I am you'll love it. Here's a link to it with a preview if you'd like to check it out.

Okay. It's a new day. I'm going to attack this layout thing again and see if I can't get this blog to look like I want it to.
Anyway. That's only half the problem. The other half is what to post. How about sharing my works in progress? That will give you an idea of who I am. And please feel free to comment, I love feedback and it'll let me know someone is out there! 
I love working with all kinds of mediums, in the chaos of where I create I have a polymer clay station, a paper station, a metal station, and a beading station. I'm in the middle of a few different things... lets see...

At the Polymer Clay Station

I was working on a pendant but too much has gone wrong I think for me to salvage it. What do you think? First the liquid clay is lumpy. Second, when I added the first liquid clay layer I smeared the word "bloom" I had stamped in silver. I don't know if i didn't let it dry long enough, maybe I should have heat set it? I'll try again, unfortunately I don't have another image transfer of that- its my own photograph of a flower.

At the Beading Station

I'm working on this coin pearl necklace, it's going to have a toggle clasp that doubles as the focal.

At the Metal Station

I hate sawing but I managed to get these two pieces for a toggle clasp for the pearl necklace out of a sheet of brass, now I have to finish them. I've still got to sand them smooth and I'm thinking a hammered finish. 

At the Paper Station

I'm working on these snowflakes for a garland. I used my Cricut and white card stock.
At first I planned to use glitter but I hated the look so I'm going with silver embossing powder.

Now I've gotta add silver embossing powder to all the tips and then string them up!

Also at the Beading Station 

I've been on a mission to use up materials I already have and I was staring at my seed bead stash (I used to love to bead weave) and thought I'd tackle a project from this book again.

That covers the big ones. The only one that is for me is the tuffet box. The rest will end up on etsy. 

Hello

I've finally done it! I'm starting my blog. Welcome. I hope you'll find this interesting enough to keep you stopping by from time to time. Now, to figure out how this all works... Why am I finding it so difficult to get the lay out the way I want it? 

Maybe a bowl of my favorite ice cream will help? Have you tried this stuff? I can't get enough of it! Creamy, not too sweet, subtle...hmmm
