Awww.... look - it's a brand new baby blog. All right, all right - so it's not much to look at yet. Babies aren't always adorable right off the bat, either, you know. Sometimes it takes a while - they have to grow into their ears and stuff. I'm sure that given time, just like the ugliest baby, this blog will blossom:)
So.... I make jewelry. I'm obsessed with making jewelry, really. I used to be obsessed with genealogy and before that it was cake decorating. But now, I'm all about jewelry and have been for years. I do mostly micro macrame, but I'll attempt just about anything. I've tried bead weaving, torch fired enameling, acid etching, chemical patinas - you name it. I didn't say I was good at any of that stuff, mind you - but I've dabbled.
I am married and have been for 26 years. My husband and I have two kids - my son just finished his first year of college and my daughter is sixteen and will be a Junior next year. We have a cat and three dogs - one's the most spoiled mini doxie EVER - that one's mine. The two big dogs belong to my husband. One's a big black lab that was supposed to be a hunting dog, but he's not really into that. He'd rather lay around and be cuddly. The other dog is a retired police service dog - he was my husband's K-9 partner until he retired last fall.
I work full time and make jewelry in most of my free time. And that's me in a nutshell.
I find it amazing that you can work full-time and still make so much awesome jewellery. Congratulations on your new blog!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Coral:)
ReplyDeleteI love macramé, dabbled with it as a kid, still remember some knots. Congrats on your new blog, I am happy to be a member and nice to meet you!
ReplyDeleteWelcome, Marti - I've long been a fan of your clay work!
DeleteMay you grow into your ears soon! Thanks for the tutorial with photos.
ReplyDeletehahaha - you're welcome:)
DeleteI too, love macrame, I just haven't made any jewelry with it, but maybe with your help, I will. :) I love the fact that your hubby's partner got to retire with him, and to come home with ya'll. I had a mini doxie a few years ago...I didn't know they could be anything but spoiled! Looking forward to reading your blog posts.
