Red Red RED!

I adore red, its my favorite color, so I decided to make a pair of beautiful ruby red delicate earrings. I love how red goes well with gold and silver. You know how certain colors just clash with gold or silver, just doesn't look right? Well, with ruby, you just never have that problem;)


Here is a pair of earrings I made last night and posted on etsy today. I almost wanted to keep them for myself!


I have made some other looks with different shades of blue. I also have a pair of beautiful pink spinel and pink chalcedony earrings. I wanted to kind of do the opposite of the rich red, with a delicate pink.


Well, I have some more etsying to do, and some school work. Class is back in session!

Have you seen this amazing makeup artist?

I found Lauren Luke aka Panacea81 on YouTube. I absolutely adore her videos and watch them thru out the day. I just find her voice to be so uplifting and positive:)

She's had so much success on you tube, that she has her own make up line coming out, and I cant wait to see what she has to offer. A few of her videos actually had me laughing, cause she just keeps it real!

How beautiful is she? I love her accent, you can genuinely tell she isn't being fake, she knows what she is talking about, and her talent is amazing!
She even is an amazing artist, her pastel artwork is in some videos, and even as an artist myself, I find myself incredibly jealous! I am awful at pastel:P

Anyways, keep checking her out, she uploads a vid every week or so, I hope she uploads one soon!

More jewelry is in the making, Im trying to make the most of my sitch. I am so angry at the family that did this to me. I want to egg there house, ok not really, ha ha. But everytime I think about it, I get so mad/upset :(

I know I just need to pick up the pieces and carry on, but im hurting. Ok enough of this, go to lauren's youtube and get sucked in!

New website...well kinda

So ive had this website (if thats what you want to call it) in my head for a while. I started it ages ago, july i think? Oh god, im so bad. Well, seeing as I have some time on my hands, I did some rearranging. Its not perfect... but its something!

Just a screen shot and a direct link to the site!

More to come, I promise!

le sigh~

So my christmas was how i expected it to be. I tried to make the most of it, but I felt down and out most of it. I had a car accident a couple of weeks ago, and Im struggling to overcome it. And then on sat. I lost my nanny job with the new family. I have literally never felt so low in my life. I feel like someone punched my in the stomach and I cant get rid of the feeling. I desperately trying to make more jewelry, but its hard. I made these pieces today:


and I also made these earrings today:


I think they have a nice winter feeling to them, and Im going to try and make more things today. I just need to get myself out of this funk, that Im in.
