Hello to all of My Wonderful Bead Peeps and Friends!
I need to apologize for not getting this posted sooner!!! Life gets a little messy sometimes doesn't it??
Well I think that is all done and now I want to let you know a little bit about me!
I am a member of the fun facebook group, Bead Peeps! We are doing an event that is called "Swap n Hop".
I really love doing swaps and I love blog hops so this is doubly wonderful for me!
This post is to let you know who I am and what I use and like and what kind of jewelry I make.
So I LOVE jasper, agate and other natural stones and all of their colors and textures. I am addicted to crystals and almost always put crystal in every piece I make. I use all types of crystals and I love czech fired and pressed glass. I use lots and lots of different types of charms. Affirmations charms and the gear types and butterflies and owls and all kinds of other designs. I am doing some of my own embossing so I love blanks. I am working with sari silk and shibbori ribbon and have devised a type of knotting with threads and yarns that I plan on using in some of my new jewelry. I also use lots and lots of chain, and I love chunky patterned or textured chain.
This next subject has been brought up on our group page and I want to make sure everybody know where I am on this issue!!!
I am generous. I am generous because I want to be and because right now I can be! That being said, I do not expect anyone else to do anymore than what they can! I think we are supposed to send an artisan component and a clasp maybe? Send me what you want me to have! That is what I will promise to do for you!!!
Ok, so now you know what I like and what I use. Now I am going to show you what I make.
I hope you enjoyed meeting me!! LOL Have a Blessed Day!!!

My name is Robin Kae Reed and I am a stringer...LOL I string beautiful stones and crystals and lucite and fiber and metal and make necklaces and bracelets, earrings and more. My partner in crime is my lovely daughter Melody.
I have been working with stones and the like for about 7 years. My company, Artistry, is gathering a following but it is very slow. I have a full time [50-60 hr. a week] job and then this as well and I also am Blessed to have a wonderful 12yr. old grandson that loves to spend time with his nana!
This Build a Line Challenge is , I think, just the kick in the but that I need to get me more focused and motivated to really advance my business.
Hope you will follow me here with all of the blogs and the pictures we will show and the final reveal in March. the 1st blog hop is just a week away and I am getting geared up to make a couple of "teaser" pictures just to get you excited [I hope] for more.
Have a Blessed day.

Hello Hello Hello!!! LOL I am just about jumping over the moon right now!!! I have been accepted into the B'Sue Boutique Build A Line Challenge!!!
What is the Build A Line Challenge?
It is a 3 month immersive challenge that will give you the skills you need, or hone the ones you have, to create a successful jewelry line to take your business to the next level!
To me that means taking the helter skelter way of designing that I have and creating a cohesive line of jewelry that SHOUTS ARTISTRY!!!
I want people to see this jewelry and say "Oh I know this Artist". That is what I want to take away from this challenge. It will be a serious challenge for me and I think that is what I need.
I hope you will follow me while I do this challenge. I will keep you up to date right here on my blog! We will be posting new pics and information in just a few days. i will let you know about that on facebook. Until then...Hugs and Blessings to you all!!!
