I need to be in front of my laptop more...

I have not blogged in a while...oops!  I have pretty much been dog sitting, cooking, at my part time job, at my other part time job, and making more jewelry!  Zeke, who I had the pleasure of dog sitting while his owner and my husband were on a raft trip down the lower Deschutes River, was great besides the time he ran away at my parent's house.  The rest of the time he chilled out with me on the couch while I recovered from a cold.

I have also added more goodies for purchase on my Etsy site and I am making more treasures for an upcoming show on November 13th at Kim Jones' annual art party.  Once I get all that info I will post it and mail it and pass it out to as many people as I can think of.

I have been thinking hard about these earrings I made recently.  I love them and they have been received well.  I want to expand upon this idea of hammered textures on silver with a little keum boo to add that fine quality contrast to the metal.  I think I'm going to expand from just circles and go for more and more organic shapes maybe play with rivets and patinas.

Let me know what you think!
