Free Jewelry Making Projects

Well our school year is almost over, and in June I usually participate in something called 30 Days of Creativity.  I hope it is going on this year.  Anyway I have been saving jewelry, crochet and painting projects for over the Summer.  I have not done much jewelry making projects at all.  All Free Jewelry Making is a great website filled with awesome free projects to try.  I can not wait to dig into some of these.  Check it out if you want to learn the art of jewelry making, or are just looking for some new projects to try.

My New Theme Friday Etsy Finds

On my Facebook page, each week, I would do a Theme Friday post. Anyone who entered an item to fit the theme got in my Etsy Treasury on Saturday. I have been doing that for about a year now, and now I am bored with it, very bored. So, I thought I would use the power of blogging and social media to help boost Theme Friday items. The result is each member that submits an item to fit the theme will get it shared on my personal FB profile, Tweeted, Pinned, favorite on Etsy, and then each Saturday shared on this blog. Since I use traffic exchange to help with exposure to my blogs, this should help each item get lots of exposure. I only had two entries this week, plus mine of course. Check them out and visit each item in their respective stores. You never know you might find something you can not live without. This weeks theme was, Mother's Day Gifts 20 dollars or under.   The first item is mine, and it is on Clearance.  Be sure to check out all my Clearance items.  This is a new section in my store to hopefully get some inventory moving a bit faster.  All are less than what I paid to make the item including supplies and time.  Here is the link to the first item https://www.etsy.com/listing/50557952/clearance-raspberry-pink-rhodolite?  Grr I have no idea why I can not write right next to the picture.  Anyway the second candle is a soy candle.  If your mom loves candles check it out, awesome price too https://www.etsy.com/listing/130263156/cashmere-silk-downy-type-woodwick?ref=usr_faveitems   The third item is a lovely pink button and rose bracelet, again an awesome price.  Since they are all under 20 dollars they are all pretty awesome.  Here is the link for the bracelet https://www.etsy.com/listing/129606514/shades-of-pink-flower-button-bracelet?ref=usr_faveitems  If you would like to join in the Theme Friday topic, and get your items shown lots of love, click the large widget to the left that will lead you to my page, then just like the page and remember to check each Friday.

Diamond Birthstone Alternative

If you were born in the month of April, then you have one of the most expensive birthstones, the diamond. Diamonds are beautiful and I love the colored ones especially. But, they are very expensive as well. If you can't afford a good sized, clean diamond, but would like something to represent your birthstone then this White Topaz ring, pictured below, might work well for you. It is available in my Etsy shop.

Black and White Full Moon Abstract Painting Art

Last week I attempted to paint the painting in the video I shared with the black and white moon setting. He used spray paint and various other methods that I have never tried. So, I used acrylics and tried my own version. After I painted the white moon and black mountains, my son said turn it upside down it still looks like mountains. Then he said paint a black moon and black stars on the upside down side. So, I did and you can see the results. This is very unique and different and I love it. I hope you do too. It is available to buy in my Etsy store. You can click the store widget at the top of this blog, to go to my store.
