We're All Ears ::March Challenge :: Leaping Greenly
With most of the U.S under snow, Erin from Earrings Everyday
wants to see our greenly creations for the return of Spring.
I am not one for working with green so this is a challenge for me.
But I was able to get three pairs created.
This is a blog hop, so make sure to check out earrings everyday
to see what everyone else has created.
Have a great weekend!!

We're All Ears August Inspiration
I have been trying to get into blogging more, but I just haven't been able to get the energy to do so. With the summer heat and various things going on here, has made it almost impossible to get anything done. Until I realized, I need to make time!
Here I am...
So this month I have two challenges I am going to try out. This one and Art Elements. I still have a lot to learn after how many years lol. But I am getting there. So here is the theme for August.... Spoonflowers.
You can check out all the info at Earrings Everyday
Can you guess which one I am using for my inspiration??
Have a great day!

Art Elements Theme Challenge for June - Sunflowers Reveal
I can not even believe it is the end of June already..... It's been one crazy and busy month. I wanted to join in on June's Art Elements theme challenge. Susan picked this months theme of Sunflowers. One of my favorite flowers. I just love the brightness of the colors.
One thing that is pretty cool in my area is a Sunflower Maze. If you are ever in the Fresno area, you will be A-Mazed!!! The Sunflower Maze in Centerville is so much fun and it’s Free! Location: 16155 E. Kings Canyon., Sanger.
Parking is at the Centerville Fruit Stand.
I really wanted to get more done than just this... But, this month just flew right by. Literally. Here is a pair of earrings I made for the challenge.
I took some cultured sea glass, patina'd washers and wire wrapped them with some sea glass I had found in Monterey, California at the beginning of the year. I did texture the washers and then applied the patina. I like how these came out. I just have not added the ear wires yet. But I did finish them..
I also started this pair but as you can see, I did not get very far in putting them together.. lol This is my first attempt at using the tin from a soda pop can, adding some patina and then adding the yellow beads to them.
Thanks for stopping by and here is a list of the other participants. Make sure to stop by and check out their beautiful creations.

Have a wonderful weekend everyone!

Dollar Tree Find & Craft
It's Friday!!
I hope you all had a wonderful week.
I really did. Lots of prayers being answered for my family, which has
relieved a lot of stress.
Thank you Jesus!
So, one of my favorite stores is Dollar Tree.
I found some great fuzzy string, as my granddaughter Avy calls it.
Instantly I knew I wanted to use this for covers for my Nook & Fire.
I did not want them to both be the same colors so I decided to make one purple and the other green.
I really love how they came out.
So this year I am making these for Christmas in July gifts for my girls.
Here is the Nook cover
And the Fire
I had a little bit of both left so I decided to use some of the fiber in a design I created to make the
Jellyfish Candy Earrings.
I am putting these in my etsy today. I really love how they came out.
You can check them out here
Tonight we are going to the Crest Theater to watch a screening of
Batman Forever.
My favorite Batman is Michael Keaton.
A little history on the Crest Theater.
It was a popular spot back before the 80's.
Mel Brooks use to own the historic theater.
A group here in Fresno wants to restore it. It is gorgeous.
So in order to raise money for the restoration, they show all types of movies.
I will definitely take some photos to share.
What are your plans for this weekend?
Have fun!

Use Your Leftovers Earring Challenge Reveal
Earrings Everyday is having their 3rd Annual
It's been months since I have blogged about anything and thought this was a great time to start. I have been wanting to for a few weeks since I lost my job.
I guess I needed to regroup and think about my future and what I really wanted to do.
Anyhow the challenge starts out by taking a photo of you desk after a bead feast...
Here it is...
My desk is not normally this messy. Okay maybe it is, but I would like to think that I do get the chance to clean it when I can. Even Dave my fish sits there waiting for his new tank to enjoy my creative process...
Next we are to get all the leftover in a container, tin or anything else that will hold the goodies. I had my leftover pieces on a towel that I have been using as a bead cloth. Everything else is full. By this time I have still not cleaned anything and just picked through all the piles of gems.
I came out with 4 pairs of earrings.
I had some recycled glass laying around and thought I would just
loosely hang them on the copper wire.
I love how these turned out. I had some fire agate that I have been wanting to use and
paired them with the pearls.
I added the abalone nuggets with the owl charms.
It's funny because I forgot to add ear wires to these and did not
realize it until after I took the photos.
I am not one for birds. I don't know why. I love to bird watch and enjoy hearing them sing. Hummingbirds are my absolute fav. But on jewelry, I just am not into it. But my bestie does, so I made these for her.
And there you have it.
Thanks for stopping by and checking out what I made. Check out the other fabulous earrings here
Have a wonderful day everyone.

I then found some cute cultured sea glass in the soup
and created a pair of earrings.
I had no clue what to do with the starfish beads
until.....

2nd Annual Octoberfest Blog Hop 2013
I keep asking myself,
"Just when did October get here?"
It seems like this year just flew right by.
This time of year is always my fav.
Basketball, the world series, football and hockey..
Oh wait that should be saved for another blog. HA!
I love the changing of the colors,
the oranges, reds and yellows just amaze me.
Colder weather means lots of hot cocoa and good books.
Rita of Toltec Jewels, put out a call for her
2nd Annual Octoberfest blog hop,
I had to get in the fun.
Last year I was just a newbie to creating.
and was very afraid to show a piece.
To anyone!
This year I made a bracelet that
represented October to me.
I also made a pair of earrings.
One more bracelet.
All of these pieces are available at my etsy
I want to thank Rita for allowing me to be a part of this years hop.
I always enjoy your hops.
Here is a list of the other participants...
Lots of talent here..
So grab something to drink and Enjoy!!

6th Do Over Challenge
Welcome to my spot in the 6th Do Over Challenge
hosted by Jeannie K Dukik of Jewelry by Jeannie.
20 lucky participants were given pieces that were created by Jeannie
to turn into our own little creations.
I was excited when I got my package in the mail.
This is what Jeannie sent me.
Lots of smokey glass beads and blue swarovski beads.
At first I was soo excited that I had a few ideas of what I wanted to do.
I knew I was not going to do a necklace..
That was a for sure thing. lol
(I just was not confident enough yet.)
So I grabbed some wire mesh beads that are used for the basketball wives
earrings and added a bead cap to each side for stability.
Then layered the blue swarovski crystals.
Here is what I came up with.
I was still a little stumped on what to do with the smokey round glass beads..
And then it hit me.
I made a triple strand bracelet
I had a great time doing this challenge.
Thanks Jeannie for allowing me to participate.
Here are the other blogs that joined in.
And if you would like to sign up for the 7th do over challenge

Have a great weekend.
