Earrings...we all love them!

I've been making so many necklaces that I sort of left my earrings behind. Now that spring has arrived, let's take off our hats and show our ears!!!

How to store your silver - 2

Ok so I've posted about how to store your silver before but now that I've done a bit of research, I've just realized that I made a mistake. I've stored my pieces in a wooden box. Apparently that's a no-no!

Here's a link to a site which gives different tips.

Photography - 3 The Bunny

As I was rushing to take the last necklaces I made for the sale last Saturday, my daugther wanted to have her bunny in the spotlight too! Check this out, how cute is it, right?

In the Navy

It occurred to me that I had not made a navy blue necklace when my friend tried them on and mentioned that she wore alot of navy...so I looked into my stash of beads and found the perfect match, silver and navy blue! Why didn't I think of that sooner? I guess it's always good to have a second pair of eyes!!

How to store your silver jewelry

Now that I have a tremendous amount of jewelry, I need to protect it from the ultimate culprit, ta, ta, ta - HUMIDITY!

How, do you ask? I am asking myself the same question. Here is an interesting article on the subject: http://www.buzzle.com/articles/anti-tarnish-jewelry-boxes-and-silver-jewelry.html

I think I might start by using my daughter's chalk (as it removes effiently humidity, thus retarding the action of tarnishing) for the moment until I can find either Pacific Cloth or Tarnish strips.

My fav

OK, so I'm almost ready for the first private sale! I had a couple of hurdles, but I think I overcame them.

As I am laying out all the necklaces on the table, I am having a hard time deciding which one I prefer. My whole selection of crystals started with me wanting a starfish. Next thing I knew, I sold them all! Now, I promise myself that I will hold on to this one!
