Buttons! Dolls! Legos! Oh My!

I have found new loves and creative fun! I love vintage buttons! Like I need another collection! I have been making rings and necklaces with them. Very fun! I will graduate to earring when it hits me. I think I will shy away from bracelets until I create a focal design. I know the charm style bracelets are very cute but I think it wastes the treasure of the buttons. Textures! Colors! Materials! Too Cute!


My mom, Kat, is up in Kentucky at a MMM (conference/class type thing.) She took some of my necklaces up with her and I am very excited to say they went over really well! Did I take pictures before she left? NOOOOOOOOOO. Of course not, that would make too much sense. So I asked her and the ladies that bought them to send me pics if possible. I had a blast making them. I know I am not done with that creative journey, too many possibilities! A lady also contacted me from the gathering and asked if she could carry my doll pendants in her shop - whohoa! Very excited about that and will pass on the link to her website upon her ordering! Thank you. Thank you. Thank you for your support ladies! It feels great!


Finally, I have an on-going love affair with legos right now. I am having too much fun and I know there is Lego jewelry out there already but I think I have a new perspective on the idea. I'm hooked! Let me know what you think!

Of course all designs you see are either available in my on-line stores or available to order. Talk to you soon!

Tara.
