Memorial Day weekend is here already! Time is sure flying by. What are your special plans and traditions this weekend? Our neighborhood has a great Memorial Day parade with decorated bikes and trikes, and the official opening of the pool. We will be heading to the beach, however. While reflecting on the tradition of Memorial Day, I went searching for some roots. I have found some interesting bits of history here, and invite you to take a look. If you take a moment to visit the Image Gallery, you will experience a very moving glimpse in time.
“Each man is a hero and an oracle to somebody” – Ralph Waldo Emerson
Have a safe Memorial Day weekend…I’ll be back to visit with you next week!
Hi everyone
Just dropping in to say I’ll be posting a fresh batch of earrings today! I’ve been inspired to try a few new wire techniques I learned from a recent class with Connie Fox (who I like to call the “Rock Star of Wire Jewelry”)! Last month I attended the Art Jewelry Festival in Wilmington, DE just for the opportunity to meet this fabulous wire artist. She came in to teach all the way from San Diego. While there, I thoroughly enjoyed meeting some incredible jewelry artists. It was such a great escape to just talk “wire” for the day plus shop for beads afterwards! What a rare treat and sure worth the drive!
See you around the shop….
“A good beginning is half the task.”…these words of wisdom were taken from a recent fortune cookie. 🙂 I found this little slip of white paper on the floor while cleaning up, and thought about how relevant these words seemed right now. I’m so happy about the launch of my website this week, and all of the wonderful feedback I’ve received. Thank you for stopping by to say hello, and thank you to my new and “old” customers alike. I really appreciate the support you have shown me. And I’ll be back with some new jewelry designs very soon. Have a great weekend!!!
