Hard work pays off

After attending the San Antonio Bead and Ornament Society (sabos) meeting, I learned to craft these easy metal earrings by Katie Holland. You can find some more of her work at www.blingismything.etsy.com. Learning more mixed media techniques has never been so much fun! I got the munchies during the meeting and found a fortune cookie stashed away in my purse. Funny what the fortune read!

And so it begins...

I'll start off by saying that I won the Cousin Corporation of America Wednesday Sweepstakes last week. I got some cute Stacked Up charms and antique brass chain. Very cute! What can I make with these?! I was pretty excited because I have never won anything online before. Great way to start a blog.
