Hi Everybody, Welcome to my newest blog!  I changed all the colors and the set up with the pictures and all of that.  Hopefully it is easier to read and more fun to look at.  Let me know what you think!!!



HAVE YOU BEEN TO RE-WYRD YET???  The first set of pictures are from Re-/Wyrd!!!  It is a Wellness Center up on CR17 and St Rd 120. It is catty-cornered  and across the street from the McDonalds right there.  Pretty little red brick building!!!

I met Shana Pittman on-line and we met in person at a craft show. Shana creates her own essential oil blends and candles with essential oils as well.  The shop smells Heavenly!!! 

Here are some of the candlesRe-Wyrd has a Reiki Master in Bernadette Wargo Klemm and Shana is a second level practioner.

 As most of you know I suffer from bad headaches on a nearly daily basis and I refuse to take pain killers. I take Tylenol if it gets too bad...just to take the edge off!!!  

Shana makes a  Migraine Relief essential oil blend that seriously works on my headaches.  It makes it much easier to cope when the pain is down to a manageable level!!!

Hopefully you can come see her soon!!You can leave with her products and without your pain, or allergies, etc...

And while you are there you can shop our ARTISTRY HANDCRAFTED BEAD DESIGNS.  We are right there in the main room!!!

 We are soooo Honored to have been invited to have our one of a kind jewelry there at Re-Wryd!!!
Our jewelry is designed to give a good feeling.  A positive vibe that is evident in our speaking tags and in the natural and semi- precious stones that are in a great number of our designs.

Each one of our designs are created here with stones from all over the world.

 Our natural stones range from a wide variety of Jaspers and Agates to dyed Howlite and Magnasite.

We have natural Amethyst and Banded Agate, Black Agate and Rose Quartz.  Several of our designs have Hematite in them as well.

 We are happy to adjust, larger smaller etc...  We also custom design.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                  Our fondest hope is that you will come to Re-Wyrd and find Comfort, and Relaxation, and Relief.

And on your way out pick up some ESSENTIAL OIL CANDLES AND LOTION to extend your great feelings and some              ONE OF A KIND HANDCRAFTED JEWELRY WITH A POSITIVE ATTITUDE!

 OMG, It is finally here!!!  The final reveal of all the Wonderful and Fun and Fabulous and Unusual and Pretty and...and...and!!!  Well I  am sure you have the idea!!!  The Very Talented Kristina Hahn Eleniak     [ of Peacock and Lime   fame]    is my Wonderful  Partner!!! http://www.peacockandlime.wordpress.com  We talked about our likes and dislikes and about our styles and found that we were really Really REALLY a lot alike!!!  LOL  We love the same kinds of stones and have similar tastes in color and style so finding a nice selection of beads and bobs was really pretty easy!!!  LOL  I just bought for me!!!                                                                                                                                                                                                        This Blog is really more pictures than anything else.  Each piece has elements of what Kristina sent me.  In some it is the focal or the largest amount of the design.  In others it has more of a supporting role with added sparkle or color.  

This piece the Fairy is the Focal

 In this piece is the base of the bracelet and most of the color as well

In this piece it is the base [in the leather cord] and the color in the window beads and all of the sparkle too

In this piece it is the Brilliant Teal Sparkle

This one has a softer sparkle that is the Czech fired beads Kristina sent me

This one it is everything but the thread!  Isn't that owl Adorable??? 

As you can see I have a lot of pieces left and a lot of fun left to have!!!   I can't Thank Kristina enough for all of the Fabulous beads and such that she sent me!  AND  most of them have sold!!!  So thanks again Kristina!!! 

 This is what I sent Kristina after we talked a bit! 
 If you look closely you will see several similarities!  
We opened them and then I texted her and was laughing at what we had sent each other.  

Blanks and gears and lots of fun color!! 
 This has been a Blast and I have made a new Friend.

My Swap-N-Hop partner in crime,Kristina , owner of peacockandlime.com

 Kristina lives in Alberta Canada and like a lot of the same things I do!!!  When you see what I sent her you will see why I said that!!!  I really don't have much more to say other that I was soooo excited by what she sent me that I imediately made a necklace, a bracelet and started another necklace!!!                                                         Watch right here for the reveal in May!!!

 Hi Everybody!!! Linda of Bead Peeps said to show you some

pictures of my designs!!  SOOOO here they are!

 I am working on making my own embossed components as you
can see in the heart bracelet.  I am completely in Love with

crystals and jasper and agate.

I do unusual and always One Of A Kind designs.

I can do simple like this cross.

  I can do  much more complex.

I can do Bright colors.

 And I can do muted natural tones as well.

                                                            And even a bit more architectural.

I hope you enjoy these.

We also do custom...just sayin'

Have a Blessed Day!!!

BEAD PEEPS SWAP AND HOP

I AM SOOOO EXCITED!!! It is almost time to do another fun Bead Peeps SWAP AND HOP!!!

I haven't done any blogging in months as you can see!!!  So Sorry about that!!  But I am back and I am just chomping at the bit to get my blog started for the Newest swap!  It is always a challenge, and surprise, and so so so much fun!

For those of you that don't know me, here is a quick rundown.

I am a self taught jewelry designer.  My favorite method of designing is stringing.  That being said I rarely do just one type of method when designing. Just like I don't use one kind of medium in a design. I love using sari silk or shabbori ribbon and embossed tags and chain and dangles...sometimes all in the same design.

I am always trying to better my skills, and expand my repertoire so to speak with those different methods and new components.

My favorite items to work with are agates, jasper, most any kind of genuine stone.  I love high end stones for their elegance and more modest stones as well for their casual and fun feel.
I use paper, and acrylic, and silk and crystals...LOVE CRYSTALS, stones of all kinds, and found objects like watch faces etc...  I use saying tags, keys, angel wings, chain links, leather, and the list can on, and  on, and on!

I love to take pictures and do lots of those. I am not a computer geek and often make mistakes on the posting and where the pics end up but I am trying.  LOL

I hope you will join me here as I keep a running schedule of what is happening in the Bead Peeps Swap and Hop!  Thank you so much for coming by and I will see you soon!!!
