Here is the announcement you
have been waiting for! Registration for my latest blog hop: The Gemstone
and Metal Hop on July 19th, 2014.
Please keep in mind that invoicing
and shipping for this event will occur in mid to late APRIL
(after tax time)! Kits are $20 plus shipping. The kits are randomly
assigned, and will include a ratio of approximately two thirds
semi-precious gemstones to one third plated metal. Disclaimer: Please do
not sign up if you do not intend to pay and/or participate - it is not
fair for me to hold a spot for you at the expense of others (I hate to
have to call that out, but it is necessary).
Here is a partial list of
the type of stones that will be used in the kits (each participant will
receive one type of stone (randomly assigned), and the number of strands
will vary based on the value of that particular stone): red and green
aventurine, green line jasper, picture jasper, lavender and green
swirled candy jade, and silver leaf.
If you wish to
register, please leave you name below and private message me with your
email and blog address. You MUST have a blog to participate. I have 10
kits left. The hop will not exceed 35 participants. If you have already registered on Facebook please DO NOT re-register here.
Update: Dolores Raml is the giveaway winner! Congratulations!
Welcome to the
"Winter Sparkle Blog Hop"! I can't wait to see what these
talented ladies made! Just a quick overview: each participant was sent a
bead kit with sparkly beads and/or pendants. Participants were instructed to use these items in
conjunction with other beads on their bead table (but not to purchase
new beads).
What
did I make for the hop? I would like to share a bracelet that I call
"Regal Sparkle". I tend to wear smaller sized beads, and I love that this bracelet looks "just right" on me.
Of course there is a giveaway! Just leave one comment on
this post (by midnight EST on March 1st, 2014) to be entered. If you would
consider joining my blog as well, I would be pleased as punch (not
required to enter the giveaway, of course). What is the prize? A
beautiful selection of jewelry making goodies from my stash! I will draw
a name on March 2nd, 2014. Please make sure I have some way to
reach you.
Now, please check out all of the jewelry awesomeness created by the participants:

Welcome to the
"Into the Forest Blog Hop"! I can't wait to see what these
talented ladies made! Just a quick overview: each participant was sent a
bead kit with "Forest Inspired" beads and/or pendants. Participants were instructed to use these components in
conjunction with other beads on their bead table (but not to purchase
new beads).
What
did I make for the hop? I would like to share a necklace that I call "Amazon Rainforest". The dark green mountain jade rounds reminded me of lush greenery in the rainforest, and the clear beads reminded me of raindrops.
Of course there is a giveaway! Just leave one comment on
this post (by midnight EST on January 18th, 2014) to be entered. Tell
me what is your favorite style of jewelry to create, and why. If you would
consider joining my blog as well, I would be pleased as punch (not
required to enter the giveaway, of course). What is the prize? A
beautiful selection of jewelry making goodies from my stash! I will draw
a name on January 19th, 2014. Please make sure I have some way to
