Longest Thursday Ever :)

It has been a long, long day. I am home today with my sweet little girl who got herself in trouble yesterday at school!! There has been a little boy that she just cant seem to get along with and well yesterday all "you know what" broke loose!! Needless to say I got a call from the principal! My sweet little girl!!!! I wont get into all the details but both of them are out of school today! She's 9, doesnt take crap from anyone and well apparently this little boy has the same personality and the two of them decided they were gonna act on thier frustration...AGHHHHH!!!! Deep breaths!!!
I got her little butt up early ...made her clean her room, finish all her homework and now she is writing an essay on ways to handle bad situations.

Anyway, enough of that. I will hopefully have my camera in order to post some pictures later tonight. I have been working on "abstract" pendants....will have to see what you think. I have also been working on a men's line of jewelry. Scott (my dear bf) has been bugging me to make him something to wear....we shall see :)

I just wanted to dedicate the rest of this post to some pretty amazing people out there. I am a member of a forum called wetcanvas where a great group of guys and gals get together to give amazing an priceless support and advice! I do have a few "favorites" if you will and wanted to share thier amazing talent will all of you. Each of them inspire me in sooooo many ways!!! (Is there anyone out there actually reading this other than my mom????)

Anyway I would first love to mention Kerry from Kabsconcepts! She is an amazing artist with fun and colorful beads and jewelry. I dont know Kerry all that well, but feel like I have known her for a while because I read her blog all the time. If you would like a good laugh and enjoy looking at beautiful beads and jewelry I highly recommend you stop by!!!

I also LOVE the beads from a very talented lady named Anastasia! She has a quality and design like no other. I am always in awe when I see what she comes up with!! Go check her out!!!

Then there is Kim Neely. It was her beads on ebay that inspired me to look into lampworking! This talented lady is amazing!!! You just have to see her beads to really understand! I also LOVE to read her mothers blog!!! She makes me laugh until my sides hurt!! Though I have never met either of these lovely ladies I really admire them both (I love her mother's outlook on life :))

There is another artist that I love who goes by Naos on Wetcanvas. Her beads are just lovely. She etches alot of her beads which gives them an amazing satiny matte finish. They are just lovely, its hard to describe them, you really just have to see them!!!

And I dont want to forget Lavender Creek!!! I LOVE LOVE her beads!!! They are unique and whimsical...I only wish I had her control! Just beautiful. This lovely lady has more talent in her pinky fingernail than I have in my entire body!!! LOL

Really I could go on and on and on...there are soo many amazing artists out there!
Just wanted to share!!
Kerry, if you are reading this...I have so much respect for you!! Thank you for all your kindness and help!!


Well....off to see if I can get those darn batteries re-charged :)
