If there's one thing I don't like, it's people like me who don't update their blogs often. So I'm guilty as charged. I have been having trouble with photographic issues, as I've mentioned previously, but I'm working on it. In the meantime, B'Sue Boutiques is sponsoring a Messy Workshop Blog Hop, and I want to prepare for that. The key is to show your workspace, be it in still pix or video, the way it really is, disorganization, mess, and all. I should be able to do that well considering my table runneth over with unbaked polymer clay beads, wirework, and all sorts of other things, some pretty much unidentifiable. :)
Last month I did set up a work area using two tables and some storage bins, but the spillover into the living area is still a problem. That's ok, though. For this blog hop, people want to see what it's REALLY like in your space. I hope my camera cooperates so that I can join in with some decent photos, or maybe even a video. Wish me luck! Until then, happy dreams!

Bracelet Day!
Here is one in a series of bracelets I worked on today. It is a large manipulated filigree finding, quite lovely piece from B'Sue, with a double handmade linked chain and lobster claw clasp, in the fantastic Silverware finish. I did not mix metals on this one, although I am in the process of completing an Iris bracelet in silver with large black & small silver chain...debating on the clasp and it will be finished. :) Also worked on the Chan Luu style wrap bracelet design today...interesting weaving technique. Oh, yeah, I wirewrapped a blue star pendant today, working on the Viking weave to hold a cab in place with ... magic! ;) No, the weave is what holds the cab (or beach glass or crystal or other object) in place, and I like to wirewrap the clasp into the design for aesthetic appeal and practicality. I'm getting good at spirals - woo hoo!
