Hooray! It's the weekend. I will definitely be sleeping in tomorrow.
Wednesday did not turn out as horrible as it had started out to be. I am a home improvement junkie so when I heard of a new home improvement store in my area I just had to go check it out. The Habitat for Humanity Home Improvement Outlet is fantastic! The only thing better would be a jewelry supply outlet or a fabulous and chic clothes outlet, but you go with what you got. I had a ball. Plus, everything you buy has been donated so all of the proceeds go to Habitat for Humanity. I found the most delicious aqua blue paint. I had to buy it even though I have no idea where I'm going to use. It is just the most delightful color. If you need to do some home improvement, see if you have a Habitat for Humanity Outlet Center in your area and check it out!
Well, for once, I finished my Creative Challenge piece before the next one was out. This week's challenge was to create something using the color of lime from the spring color chart. I decided to use some lime-colored glass beads I had lying around and paired them with aqua-colored glass beads. They have been wrapped with sterling silver and added to sterling silver links that I of course handcrafted. I like the way it turned out. It's very simple and summery. Plus, since it is a plain chain, it could be worn to dress up an outfit or with a pair of jeans. Snazzy, if I say so myself. It will be listed in my shop shortly.
Yesterday, I was EBSQ's Art of the Day feature. Yay! Well, I should say that my Lava Decadence Cuff was the feature of the day. That was pretty cool. I have only been a member over there for a couple of months so I don't know how prestigious this is, but it's fun. Plus, my cuff sold within hours, and I have some interest in me making more of them. I should see if willowglass can help me with that.
Oh, I almost forgot. Today is the start of the Destash Bash on Etsy. Lots of people have joined up to get rid of their stash so they can create a new stash. I'm one of them. So head on over and search for Destash Bash.

That is beautiful!
Congrats once again on the feature, you need to tell me more about that site!!
I really should have joined the destash bash...what was I thinking.
xoxoxo
Aimee - congratulations on that feature - and that is wonderful that there is so much interest in your jewellery and cuffs - well deserved.
I hope this weekend is a great one for you and you enjoy your lie in (well deserved too I think!)
Thanks for the habitat for humanity tip! I'm jealous of your paint...I live in an apartment and I'm cursed with white walls! I wish I found out about the destash bash sooner...oh well maybe next time :)
I love your challenge piece-It's beautiful!
I wish we had a habitat for humanity outlet here. The local place we have here borders on junk!Although I did rescue some Elvis things once.
That aqua paint sounds like a bath to me!
Congratulations on your feature and sale of your cuff!
Heading over to the destash bash now!
