Friday, Friday, Friday!

It's Friday! It's Friday! I'm doing my Friday happy dance.

Well, I have one custom order down and two more to go. Wish me luck on the next ones because they are custom his and her modern claddagh rings. They won't be too hard I hope.

Update on the heat. Still don't have any. Remind me to kick my electric company's butt.

Here it is. I said I was going to do a sterling silver oyster necklace, but I decided to do a bracelet instead. The chain got to me. I just couldn't do it. I think the bracelet turned out beautifully, and I'm glad I didn't do a bracelet. The white opal really sets the whole thing off. It can be found in my shop.

Pre-Black Friday sale this weekend! 20%Off to anyone who mentions "Blog" when checking out today through Sunday at midnight. You know you need some jewelry presents. This applies to my Ecrater site as well. The good thing about that is you can just purchase something without signing up. You just have to wait for a revised invoice. Or, if anyone wants to trade with me for some righteous presents like for an 8 yr. old, a man, my mom, my grandmother just let me know. Because seriously, I don't have a clue what to buy for these freaking people. It's ridiculous.

A Little Bit of Everything

Well, my duckies, how did your weekend go?

I was back to painting my mom's hall and second floor yesterday. With the cost of gas and the gas guzzler car I have, I can only afford to go to her house once a week as she lives over 30 miles away. Why did I ever agree to paint her house? Seriously. I'll be glad when this is done. I at least got some color on the second floor this time. Thank goodness. Don't get me wrong I love to paint, but this is just ridiculous. I think it's the color. I just don't like the colors she's picked out together. It's just too much. It was literally giving me vertigo.

Oh, I was on the front page of Etsy this weekend. Thanks, stephaniegibson, for letting me know! It was like all of 10 minutes so it's a good thing she told me. I do believe this is the first time I have been on the front page when it involved a treasury list. Last time was because of the Crest trunk show at the Labs, and the other was Christmas Day last year. Here's a screenshot just because.

See my ring in the top corner?

Btw, Project Runway starts this week! In two days as a matter of fact! Yay! I'm so excited.

Last but not least is my little oyster ring. It was inspired by the Creative Challenge in the Etsy forums. This week's challenge was to create something inspired by something under the sea. My little ring is all copper. The copper oyster has been soldered to the band ring, and then it was accented with white opal bead attached with copper wire. I just love it even though it's a substantial ring. I'm planning on doing a necklace just like it in sterling if the Post Office would quit taking holidays so I could get my solder. lol.
