I was perusing through blogs, sipping coffee and dropping entrecards when I came across The Art Zoo. Noticing they have some fabulous handmade items...I started going through the archives and found they featured my white gold flapper earrings on Sep. 10th.
So a late, but heart felt THANK YOU to The Art Zoo.
If you haven't checked out this site yet, you should! They feature a unique, handmade item each day...from jewelry to journals to sclupture and paintings. Candy for the eyes indeed!
Congrats on the featured, those earrings are great!
If you set up a Google Alert for your shop name, you'll get an email when the name appears on the web. That's how I knew I was on The Art Zoo. Gotta love technology! :)
I discovered jewelry making in my mid-teens, around that age when girls start worrying about being "pretty" I suppose. It started as a hobby of making simple bead earrings and hemp macrame necklaces but quickly steamrolled into a full blown addiction. I moved on to stringing necklaces, bracelets and anklets. Soon after I discovered seed beads. At first I had NO idea what to even do with them other than use them as spacer beads. But then I discovered peyote (or gourd) stitch and I was absolutely hooked. It was (and still is) amazing to me that you can put these little tiny things together to create something more beautiful than the sum of its parts.
I take my "addiction" pretty seriously...I pay close attention to details and weave each bead with love. If I am feeling grumpy or sad I do NOT bead, as I believe that energy can seep into the piece I am creating. Luckily I'm a pretty happy person and have a wonderful loving husband who understands and helps support me in my artistic endeavors.
