as you know, my entire silversmithing endeavor was made possible by the generosity of others. i recently did a trade with steph from endangered creations. i gave her a ring and a pair of earrings, and she gave me a LOT of cabochons. when they arrived, many of them really spoke to me. i’ve already used 3 of them this week. but many of them did not and i wanted to pass them on. so i gave them to dear susie, a constant support on this here blog. today, she posted this on her blog. i am so very touched. and you, susie, are so very welcome!
p.s. i’ve been really really really trying to manifest the selling of more of my one-of-a-kind pieces and less guitar picks. i think it is happening! the raven bracelet sold instantly. right after that, i sold the growth belt buckle at the gallery. then the elk necklace sold right away. last night, i listed three items and by this morning, two of them had sold. i think it is happening. i had two more sales today after that. etsy got rid of the gift guides, which were the main reason i was selling so dang many guitar picks anyway. today, i took the guitar picks out of my shop. wish me luck.
p.p.s coming soon… a fawn, a heron, and an owl…
