I could get used to this: Get up on Sunday morning. Turn on the computer. Find something from my Etsy shop in a Treasury!! Yeah baby! Gotta love it! It will be receiving clicks (hint, hint!) until Tuesday, March 31, in the evening.
I present As I Live and Bead, curated by Debra of Beads and Blooms.
Debra makes some absolutely beautiful wearable art, and one of my personal favorites is the Blue Angel Necklace. Lovely isn’t it? Such a gorgeous stone, surrounded by the graceful woven seed beads.
I woke up to find my Honeysuckle Beadwoven Bracelet in this lovely treasury! It will be open for viewing (& clicking ;o)) until Monday around noon!
Fantastic was curated by Ileana of Enchanted Beads. She has many beautiful items in her shop. Here is one of my favorites:
Thank you Ileana, for including me in your lovely treasury!
Finally, I have completed a new piece for my Etsy shop. I’ve had such a hard time lately getting things accomplished!
This bracelet features two lampwork beads made by Ginny Hampton Schmidt. I purchased these from her at the Fort Worth Bead Market last November. Ginny does beautiful work and has a shop on Etsy called Ginnovations . I could use a critique!

I was able to grab a Treasury West today and thought it appropriate to feature a few of the CAC members. I think it’s pretty, and hope you agree! It’s still open for clickin’ through Thursday morning EARLY! Go ahead, they need love, too! “Loverlies From Team CAC “
Yay, I woke up to find my Rain Drop Earrings in a Treasury West this morning! Misty Blue will be live and available for clicks until Monday afternoon, March 16.
Well, I love “firsts”! Today, I made my first sale on my Etsy shop! It was for the Shimmering Sapphire Earrings I listed a couple of weeks ago. Not a big sale, but I am pumped and fully expecting this to be enough to pull me out of my “downy dumps” about NO sales!! I am very grateful, and look forward to many more, perhaps in the not too distant future!!
We all like giveaways!! We LOVE hand made!! And how is this gorgeous ring for a prize?! To enter for a chance to win this beauty, go here: http://chocolateandsteel.blogspot.com/2009/03/giveaway.html
