Learning to Solder..woo whoo!

Sorry it has been so long since my last login. Things have been hectic and crazy (in a good way) since Christmas. Now that the weather is cool and the garage is not 100 degrees. I will start learning how to solder. I got "Soldering Made Simple," by Joe Silvera. So as soon as I get my supplies, I will be ready to try this out!! I'm excited on all the wonderful creations that await me!! Stay tuned!

Using the Jewelers saw!

Well, I finally got my jewelers saw! I had been putting it off for the longest time. I don't know why, because it is so much fun. It is frustrating at first breaking blade after blade, but after you get the hang of it, it is quite fun! My first project was this cute little acrylic moon. I have to say cuting through the acrylic is alot easier than metal, but just as satisfying. There is more to come with acrylic sheet and metal. I can just invision the fun I will have creating new pieces of unique jewelry!

Bus Driver Appreciation Day....

Drum roll please........Well, here it is. On October 20th, it is "Bus Driver Appreciation" day. So, I have been thinking of ideas for a piece of jewelry. Today, I finally made something. I think it turned out cool! I hope my son's school bus driver likes it! I love the little metal school bus charm I found. It works great with the ruler and eyelets!

So don't forget the bus driver that gets your children to school safely!! They deserve praise too!

New Line of Copper Bracelets

Check out the site to see my new Copper ID bracelets. I made a few today and they turned out nice. I'm a free spirit, so I decided to make a bracelet with that saying. I"m sure there are others out there that don't like to "go with the flow" and break the rules. So this one is for you!



If you have a saying or a few words that describe you and want to show everyone, just let me know. I would love to make you a bracelet!

Bus Driver Appreciation Day

I was reading my son's upcoming schedule and I saw that October 20th is "Bus Driver Appreciation" day.

Stay tuned, I can't wait to show you all what I come up with. Ohhh... this is going to be fun!

Football Season is here!

Yes, it's that time of year again when I can cheer my Green Bay Packers! Yes, I'm a Cheesehead. Being so, it inspired me to come up with a unique piece of jewelry to let everyone know, I love the Pac. If you have a favorite team and would like me to custom make your team, let me know! I will come up with something unique and fun just for you!

Back To School

Well, it's that time of year again! In honor of all of the great teachers out there, I have come up with some unique ideas for your favorite teacher. When I found these cool metallic anodized aluminum rulers, I just knew I needed to make some cool jewelry out of them. I ended up making ruler rings, "teachers rule" necklaces and charm bracelets. They were a big hit!
