I have Been So Neglectful Here

I really have not been here much.  Life has been busy!  I have not been creating as much as I would like.  The fundraising goes well - not setting any records - but not too quickly, which is good for now.  The Team Fox (the community fundraising arm of the Michael J. Fox Foundation) person I have been in touch with has expressed interest in featuring my efforts on behalf of the Foundation (fundraising and PPMI), which is great, but a little scary.  The day job is still terribly busy and I don't want the jewelry to become a burden rather than a pleasure so I asked if we could discuss it later.  Maybe a big push for the holidays?  If you do go to the Etsy site, inventory looks a little lean.  I have more, I just need to take time to post it.  When I have more inventory posted I also plan to push a little more on Facebook and to Share on the Team Fox Facebook page.  If you haven't already, would you mind taking a moment to "Like" my page on Facebook?  I feel so needy asking.

Some of my favorites below.  (Thanks to Carrie for the neck modeling!)

 

This is the most gorgeous red.  It is deep without being tomato-y.  Here with a peacock freshwater pearl on sterling silver.  It is so hard to capture the colors.  Link to Etsy listing here.

This pale blue looks amazing on.  These are 15/0 beads - really tiny - and have lots of shimmer from the "cuts" on one side of the beads.  With a faceted amethyst pyramid on sterling silver.  I just realized this one is not listed.  Things to do today:

1. Go back to bed (it's 2:25 AM)
2. Home Depot/Lowe's run for paint sample
3. Have breakfast with grandbaby and her mama
4. Paint test splotches on new drywall?
5. List items on Etsy

A couple of pairs of earrings:  red coral with petite, faceted labradorite and faceted amethyst pyramids with freshwater pearls, both on sterling silver leverbacks.
