Ebay finds!



My Ebay Jackpot!

Way too many "wins" this month!!! Here's a picture of about 1/4 of my purchases... Yes, I feel very guilty. But I still can't wait to start some projects!!!

New Year Resolutions

GOT ONE?
Here's mine (in no particular order):
  1. I of course, have the usual "exercise more"...or exercise at all :o)
  2. Take half an hour a day to stop clutter of jewelry projects
  3. Take 10 minutes a day to speed clean the house
  4. cook more
  5. Keep in touch with my brother more
  6. Serious business plan for RubyVegas

The last one is a doozy because I have so many goals! Sometimes it's so hard to even know where to begin. Maybe this year I will actually make it to SCORE (a program where retired executives volunteer to help with your business).

I feel better seeing this written down :o)

Ebay bites

The truth is that I love ebay. I try not to go there because I completely get sucked into it. My secret competitive nature rips out of my body and battles it out- auction after auction...
For the past 5+ years, I've been so good, only doing the BUY IT NOW listings. But last week I suffered a set back. Today I had to buy a tumbler...which led to purchase, after purchase, after purchase.

So I guess I might as well start a store to sell my ebay purchases. Anybody need sterling pendants, earrings & rings in the coolest stones imaginable???
SSSSSSSSSSshhhhhhh don't tell on me, or i'll end up homeless too.

Pins and more pins...





Been making orders like CrAzY! The truly funny thing is that while I'm making them, I come up with new ideas...then I have to experiment...next thing you know it's 5am.

On Task?



It's so hard to find a balance...
I'm taking a few days off from the gallery so I can focus on website orders.
But naturally, I get sidetracked making new designs...
Saturday is our silent auction at the center. I'll post a picture when I'm done making whatever it is I make :o) No worries, I still have two days----YIKES!

Woohooo I did it!

December 2nd...4:05am and I'm finishing up! Everything is made, packaged and postage applied. I only have one more to apply postage to in the morning!!! Not bad, 5 hours of work. Come on baby, throw some more goodies my way :o)

Good Night! Sweet Dreams.

December First

December 1st!!!
Wow, I got slammed with 19 orders today! I'm so excited. YIPEE.
Many of the pins are my more unusual designs, I look forward to challenging myself with them a bit :o)
Don't worry, there's still another 2 weeks to place your order and get the pins in time! I'm gonna dare myself to get all 19 shipped out by tomorrow...think I can do it??? It's 11pm now...

This weekend the Museum and Art Center is having a silent auction to help raise money for projects. Each gallery/artist is going to donate something fabulous. I have no idea what I'm donating yet, I'll try and post a picture before it goes bye bye!
