Listomania

Alright, Blogosphere... Have you missed me??  I think of you often but then never write.  It reminds me of my nanny, aka grandma.  Nanny occasionally calls, always while I'm teaching or otherwise unavailable, and leaves a sweet message saying she loves me and to give her a call sometime.  Guess what happens?  Yep, I will think about it now and again, usually at some obscene hour like 1:00 AM, and then never actually call back.  Horrible.  I'm a horrible grandchild.  And apparently not the best blogger... YET.  Never give, never surrender!

Since it's summer, though, I've been a busy little bee the past few weeks.  Yesterday, alone, I added SIXTEEN new listings!!  Two weeks prior, thirteen items were added.  You should go check it out... Seriously.  Go.

Here's one of my favorites from yesterday.  They're upcycled/repurposed coil hooks with hand painted flat round beads.  Anything to help save Planet Earth!  And they're truly unique, which is rare these days.  I'd be happy to make them in any other color by request as well - just ask.

One of the pairs listed yesterday that I wear often consists of tiny brass hex nuts in a chandelier formation.  Despite numerous pieces of metal, they're surprisingly lightweight!  For more definition and pop, I used silver jump rings to contrast with the brass hex nuts.

Of course, there is a slew of men's necklaces that need to be listed, BUT the silly Texas weather did not cooperate.  I loaded up my jewelry cart - which should be another blog post itself sometime soon - and started to roll it out of the office and towards the back door.  (As you may or may not know, it is best to take photos in natural light, aka outdoors.)  Right as the cart passes the threshold of the office, BOOM.  Thunder.  Pretty sure I actually said out loud, "You have got to be freaking kidding me!!"  Haha!  Then more thunder followed by pouring rain... Sigh.  C'est la vie!  Maybe today?

Here's a preview of the men's jewelry line.  See anything you like?
