More earrings...


I've not worn earrings in YEARS! The little ones tend to a make it difficult. Since they are well out of the grab and pull stage, I feel drawn to them. Plus my dearest one likes them! I've been drawn to mismatched pairs as well...

Dia De Los Muertos! New Work...





Here are a few new designs that will be larger pendants! These skulls will be available with multiple loops and in hand painted colors! I'm so anxious to see how they look all fired up and purty! I think the second one looks a bit "mean" and I may work on softening the eyes...

Soundtrack Contest!



Since Heather of Humblebeads had her "Mix Tape Challenge" last week I've been hooked on searching out songs on Playlist.com. It got me thinking about soundtracks which lead to a fun contest idea! I've put together a list of songs that are all featured on a soundtrack! If you can correctly guess (no cheating!) which movie the songs are from you'll be entered into a drawing to win a fun beady prize! Don't forget to leave a way to get in touch with you! I will draw a winners name Thursday!
