Camera

Hooray I got my new pictures downloaded!!! Now, I am off to the Doubletree Inn for more adventures in beads!!

ARGH.........

Can't get my camera to download!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Extreme frustation.

I didn't have the correct stuff to do my resin so that is on for this weekend. I did get some cute pieces done but can't show you because of computer issues.

This weekend will be better!!!!

Crafting part 2

Totally forgot, monkey mom has new pieces to photo & send into magazines....:)

crafting

I know how to cross stitch & make wreaths & flower arrangements, you wonder what this has any match to making jewelery but keep reading. *brain thinking outloud preceding now...I want to make different type of jewelery than other people BUT I am a chicken butt when it comes to trying new things out. That surprises the heck out of me because I taught myself how to make jewelery, taught myself how to cross stitch & taught myself how to arrange flowers SO why am I feeling this way??? My brain stating bad things like you are too stupid to do this OR you are too poor and can't afford it. GUESS what brain, YOU ARE TOTALLY WRONG!!!! I am going to do it!! I can actually retire from the government now BUT I am still too young to get a decent retirement check so I won't be looking at that for a few years. I am going to plan my days better so when I go home, I do at least a couple of crafty items to get our product out to people & fix my creative cravings. God has given me this talent & I want to develop it in all sorts of various ways. I have some resin stuff at home so I am going to make a resin pendant tonight. I have only had for 4 months & I am doing it, darn it. I am also going to invite some ladies over to my apartment to teach them how to make earings. That way, I can determine if I enjoy teaching. Friday, I am going to the True Blue show & get some tips on making stuff out of Polymer Clay. I am also going to move my beading tables from my dining room into the bead room which has been organized, THANKS DADDY and get that ready to go....end of brain ranting*

I will take pictures of some jewelery that I have at home since I do not have to edit them when I post them here overmuch.

This is the Funky Monkey booth at the Museo Alameda about 1 1/2 ago....

burg mood......

Sigh..............................the folks left today. I already miss them. No, honestly I do but I do like my space to myself. I won't mind at all if they would move down here or over here since they are in Florida full time now. Work is work & my neck is killing me, I had over 400 messages that I had to read! That was not fun at all! I much rather be beading....

This is a sepia picture of a place at De Grazia Gallery in the Sun in Tucson AZ.

Ideas/jewelery

Quick post from work, we have worked on a bunch of new jewelery & several pieces mom will be taking pictures to send to various magazines to get published. I am very nervous about this and don't really know why??? Proably fear of rejection but you keep on trying away.

We also re took many Etsy pictures & took pictures of many new pieces as well. When mom/dad get home to Florida, they are leaving tomorrow, then they will be up on Etsy soon.

Tucson Bead SHOWSSSS

WOW....WOW....WOW........the monkey mom & I are popped out!! We hit three bead shows already & today at the True Blue Show was by far the best at least for me!!! Many artists were there that I have either purchased items from Green Girls Studios or have drooled over her stuff CF Orignals!

I have to shout out to Andrew Thornton whom I spent 20 minutes talking to him about putting our jewelery out to various bead publications!! Thank you so much & mom & I are plotting which pieces to send out.

Just wait until you see all the beautiful pieces we have made!!! hee,hee.............so much stuff to buy and not a lot of money in the coffers.

We took a lot of pictures over for Etsy. Those will hopefully get updated when mom & dad get home to Florida. They leave on Wednesday!!! My apartment is so much more organized and clean because of the dad monkey!!
