Spring has sprung! (cheesy)

holy geez has it been this long since a post, wow.. I kinda suck at this whole blogging thing. I think i avoided it because since the last time i blogged I wasnt in a good place in my life and putting it out in words wasnt exactly theraputic(contrary to what people say). But I have to say, right now my life is pretty decent. I have a job, a good one, and im not in NJ anymore. Im closer to my family and to the city. Im not in Long Island, but im back in NY:)

I still worry about a lot of things, but who doesnt. I must admit I took a break from the whole jewelry thing and kinda cleared my head. I work for another family, they are pretty cool, for twins.. again,lol. Right now they are having Central Air put in, and im about to go insane, the noise is somewhere between annoying and i want to kill someone level.

I officially hate the inventors of central air, and the people who install it.

But i just wanted to let anyone who reads this, that i am still alive, back in NYC and going to reinvent my line, incorporate more different colors. Overall, life is ok, and the people who fired me in NJ did me a favor because I found a way better family and living in NJ sucked. Still getting fired was soul crushing, and to people who have been fired before, it is the worse feeling in the world, and I wish it on no one.


peace out

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!
