Beginning of the Holiday Season

So the Craft show season has officially begun for me.

I did the Claremont Village Venture with Miriam Dema this past weekend. Check out her store for fabulous art prints, new mini prints, buttons, and more.
I have two of her prints up in my house already and they look great.

I have Halloween weekend off and my Dad and his wife are visiting to give me some family time!
Then every weekend I will be at shows through December.

Here are some pics of our booth.

I just love this stone and more...

I got these little onion tourmalated quartz drops at the last gem show I went to and I just love them. Such a simple earrings but it's a hit at the craft shows.

I have lots coming up so if you live in California be sure to come by and say hi to me.I also finished this necklaces. I have had the coral beads since college and had no idea what to do with them. All the new necklaces I've been working on lately have handmade clasps too!
More necklaces using my last bead haul. This one has black spinel and these great grey mother of pearl coin beads. I might keep this one for myself.

I am trying hard not to neglect my blog but it's going to be a busy craft show season.


I am excited I just got a basket and lights for my bike so I am exploring LA outside of my car!
I'll post a picture as soon as I get a chance. I still have to make a few adjustments, it was rubbing my wheel a little this morning on the way home from pilates.
It's a different city when you aren't sitting in traffic for hours of every day....
