A Sneak Peek!

Here it is! A sneak peek of the new little girl cuff I was working on! I still need to edit the photos, but this sweet little bracelet should be on the website by the end of the day!

Can you stand the suspense?!

Wait for it.......

A new piece for girls! I need to edit the photos, but it is coming! I'll give you a hint.....I *love* rivets!!

and the biggest seller of the week is.......

The BABY LOVE sterling silver cuff bracelet for infants!

I have sold a *ton* of these little bracelets this week.....I'm not sure why! Sure, they are cute and even beautiful, but I'm not sure why there has been a run on them in the past few days. Whatever the reason, THANK YOU to all my wonderful customers!

Want to check out this sweet little bracelet? Click the link below! It makes a great alternative to silver spoons and rattles! A perfect match to mom's bracelet, or the little girl/boy version!

Destined to become a treasured heirloom!

Take me to the BABY LOVE bracelet!

So I finally completed it.....

The Spiked Spiral bracelet. Actually, I've been done with it for awhile now. It was immediately purchased by my good friend, Gina. I can't show her anything. :O) I am going to make two more, so have no fear! One will have green palace Swarovksi crystals and clasp, the other black diamond.

So, here is the finished product. It has over 6 feet of sterling silver wire! A shout out goes to Lisa Niven Kelly for teaching me how to create these!

So, my summer business has been a little slow, lending me time to create a few new pieces for the craft show I do in the beginning of December. I've had the supplies sitting around for this piece for a long while, but never had the time to sit down and work on it. It's called the Spiked Spiral Bracelet, taught to me by the wire work master, Lisa Niven Kelly.

Love love LOVE it. It's a big pain in the neck (hand?) to make, but it looks like it may have been worth the time! What you do think? (Excuse the photo....I took it with my phone!)

Ronald's Lemonade Stand

As many of you already know from my posts, I am a former teacher and substitute quite a bit in the kindergarten classes of my childrens' school district. Recently, one of the sweet little boys in a class I am in quite often has been diagnosed with Acute Lymphoblastic Leukemia and is currently under going chemotherapy~~ boom. Just like that. I was in his room a week and a half ago.

The family is going to need help with his medical bills for a variety of reasons. His friends and neighbors have already set up a Lemonade Stand for him to help raise money for his medical bills. If you are in the area, the stand will be set up at the school carnival this Saturday, June 12th. If you can't make the carnival, you can send donations to the following address:

Ronald Hogas Fundraiser~~ Lemonade Stand
Holy Cross Lutheran Church
280 Crosswicks Road
Bordentown, NJ 08505

Checks may be made out to Ronald Hogas. Click the link above to join his Facebook page.

Okay, so here's what I am going to do. For every purchase made today through my website (or personally, if you know me) I will donate $10 of the sale to my little friend Ronald. If you buy a pair of $12 earrings, I will still donate the $10. So please, if you have been on the fence about buying a piece, now would be a wonderful time to do it. You will get a lovely piece of jewelry and be helping out as well.
