Almost there now

Our 180 days of school for the 2010-2011 school year are finished! I'm still getting the boy's portfolios in order but the end is in sight. Studio time has mostly been limited to fulfilling a large custom order but I also spent a little time rummaging through the " discard box" and re-working pieces that didn't work out. Carving works wonders on Stone upon Stone pieces that were made before I got more consistent with them. (I throw nothing away.)


I had a pleasant surprise from Amanda at Ulixis who featured my white Fragment earrings on her blog yesterday! Check out all her lovely finds!

Back to school

The kids and I are on day three of a complete cleaning and re- organizing of the classroom in preparation to start school on September 2. Time management is not my strength. I thought for sure two solid days of work would complete the task. But alas...we continue. Perhaps by the end of the day today we'll be done.


The UPS man has been a frequent visitor with boxes of supplies arriving daily. I mourn the fact that full days in my studio are coming to an end for the year but the kid's excitement for the learning that lies ahead is infectious!


In celebration I am offering a BACK TO SCHOOL special in the Etsy shop. August 28-September 2 all $12 post earrings are 1/2 off with any other purchase. (applies to any $12 posts already in my shop)
