I participated in The Rock and Shop Vintage Market last weekend. It was lots of fun and a huge success! The jewelry looked great on the new displays and with the business cards and packaging it really came together.

Since I was busy behind the booth, I didn't get time to go check out the other vendors or take pictures of my own booth--as a vendor, huge mistake not taking pictures! Luckily, other vendors have posted pictures of the show and even posted pictures of my booth. I follow the blog Mint, and was quite surprised to see my booth in the blog posting! Thanks Hello Tenfold and Bigwig&Silver for taking such great photos. They both have an amazing collection of photography, custom stationary, note cards and post cards.

Thanks for the pictures!

a day with out Jack

All day without mon petit pois (my little pea). Since Nana is in town, I no longer exist in my sons eyes. So, I have decided to take advantage of the help and buckle down.

I cant even begin to describe how much I got done! Those of you who know what its like to stay at home with a little one, 18 months to be exact, know that there isn't a lot of productivity taking place during the day. Well, today was filled with what felt like luxuries-- Making jewelry, taking pictures of new pieces, blogging, applying to craft shows, and more craft shows, reading all the great info on Etsy...it was fabulous.

This is one of many necklaces I was able to make. Its part of my collection where I incorperate upcycled items. The yellow brass rope chain is from a necklace that I cut apart and the beads are antique Japanese glass.

I will call it...mon petit pois.
