Entries for the Beadstar Contest

I just completed my entries for the Beadstar Beading Contest and submitted them. The categories I entered were crystal, hearts, seed beads, glass beads, gemstones, and pearls. I sent the initial email entries and will hear from them some time in June. This is when I will find out whether or not I am a finalist. If I am a finalist, I will have to send in the actual piece and include written instructions on how to make it.

I know these pictures are not the best quality, but, I hope they are good enough that you can give me your opinion. Check them out and let me know what you think.

Wish me luck!

I had my first jewelry party!

I just had my first jewelry party!


My first jewelry party was really exciting. I displayed my jewelry at a friends house and my girlfriend set up her display of arbonne products. We had an open-house type setup and we both made some sales and handed out alot of business cards. The great thing is that we already have a request to do another combo party.

I have a picture below that shows how I set up my jewelry display:

I had my beautiful daughter, Amber, model a necklace and earrings set I made (A finalist design in the Fire Mountain Gems Beading Contest - Glass Bead Category).

We had a good time and everyone enjoyed the jewelry and the arbonne products. Hopefully, this is the beginning of something good.
