This blog is designed to allow you to come along with me on my journey through developing my talent and style in the art of silversmithing. Along the way we will try out new techniques together, make some jewelry and have an awful lot of fun and you get to peek into the new life I have made in Florida.

It's a rainy day in Georgia
Hi everyone sorry i didn't post yesterday but do to a minor household accident i just couldn't type to well . Yesterday i learned its not a good idea to make tea and then clean off the stove while it's still hot especially if you have a gas stove and want to clean the burners hot iron is really HOT!, grabbed the aloe and thank goodness it really does work no blisters forming but you can actually see them kind of weird huh. I guess a typical Monday at work but i did get a day of rest sort of.
Today's agenda is going to be working on the baby cabs again already got them prepared for the cabbing machine but first its experiment time i am going to try to do some mix metal stuff, using copper and silver i want see what kind of cool things i can come up with so be prepared tomorrow for the big surprise of seeing what the experiment turns out for us to enjoy.
I also posted some of my stuff on etsy again trying to get that established offering a great deal on earrings at $15.00 a pair and some other stuff in case you might need some quality inexpensive gifts for the holidays or stocking stuffers.
My last bit of exciting news i am finally getting my own website, hurrah thanks to someone very special out there for helping me out don't know what i would do without your help and support it is in the process of being put together the site is NancysJewelryDesigns.com its under construction now but you can still buy something if you like.

It's Tuesday Already
Well after taking off Sunday and Monday to do some me stuff it's time to hit the creative road first on the list of priorites it baby cabachons oh yeah here they come for all of you wonderful people who are waiting on them to emerge they are here yeah it's okay making them but i still like the bigger stuff and when you move down in size there is also the issue of smaller print needed on the stones hard to get all that great graphics on little stones. The leaves are so pretty in my back yard i think they must have made an impression when i went rock gathering this week, i chose colors that reminded me of the fantastic foilage that is every here to see the golds that i think is the favorite color of the fall leaves those maple trees that are that really golden and orange color are so great here are some of the rocks that i will be working with this week, as well as jewelry to post on etsy so stay tuned for more updates as the week progresses.
