Spring!

I may be rushing it a little bit-but I'm tired of waiting for Spring to arrive here in uber rainy Seattle. I get so sick of how grey everything is-I mean really I just need a little color. So keeping that in mind-I hope it's understandable why I went a little crazy over the weekend making way too many brightly colored gemstone pendants...Yes I did make them every color of the rainbow (except yellow-I'm apparently out of yellow) so I guess this is what happens when you have cabin fever and access to a large quantity of gemstones?? I think this is one of those moments when I can't decide if it was a cool idea or a really bad idea...

New Website Launched Today!

Hello Ladies,
I'm happy to announce that today I'm finally launching my new website: http://www.theadornedarticle.com/ and my new jewelry collection. It's like having a shiny new baby and I'm very proud so please stop by and have a look. Also on  the Giveaway front--I've decided to start small and let some other more experienced giveaway diva's host my first few giveaways for me so I will be sponsoring them on a couple of different websites-one giveaway in October and another in November...I'll post more details as I get them and if you feel the need to enter a giveaway right this very minute go over to The RikRak Studio Blog and enter the 'I Love my Sponsors Giveaway' for a chance to win a gift certificate to my store-the drawing will be on September 30th so scoot over there and enter. For now I'll just leave you with some shiny images to ponder.
