Gem show Haul!!

Today I spent the majority of the afternoon at the gem and jewelry show. The wholesale section was rather skimpy. Not as many vendors were in there. However, I did manage to get several good deals! I love my haul. I had several of stones and crystals! OOOOOh the sparkle!!! The stones. The sparkle! AWWWWWWWWW a beader, jewelry maker's fun!!! WEEEE.

On another up note- I got my new digi cam today. My aunt brought it up with her. Of course I had to test it out with my mom (I went to her house after the show to show her the pieces that I purchased & pick up my digi cam). It will take a little while to get use to it. But It will be good times working it out! As soon as I get it together I am going to take pictures of my May 9 gem show haul!!

Here is a photo of Queen's Eye, a piece inspired by a Cleopatra themed challenge at Jewelrylessons.com.

I'm doing too much as usual. I'm trying to decide if I should try my hand at selling jewelry...although I have precious little time to actually make anything. And I'm trying to get back to my writing. My writing isn't beautiful like yours. Words are not my gift, stories are. I think I'm a story teller more than a writer, as my writing is very simplistic. But finding time to do anything is hard. There are only so many hours in a day! LOL
