finally I was able to sneak back

in the studio!! Doing the diet and all the exercise for p90x is stealing a lot of time from me. But Today I was able to work a bit... I have a lot of goodies in the works for you.


I really like the prong settings I have been using and how they add height to designs as well as showing of the gemstones more than when they are flushset in a little silver ball.



Yummy yummy :o) I am so excited about these ladies. The stones will range between 6 and 8 mm so we are talking WAY smaller than what I usually make. But I like that. You need big rings for big days and small rings for small days...


Haven't decided what's gonna be rings and what will become necklaces yet. I will just have to wait and see what happens. More photos on my Flickr.


Look at this mystery moss agate. It's gorgeous. It has a greyish/blueish color with transparent background. I must do something fun with this one.


I still have to solder back plates to all of these (except the big one) and figure out what designs I want to make.. I have a few new ideas in my head. No I am not telling! you just have to be patient! More photos on my Flickr.


and now I will go and rest my head on my pillow.. Trying to sleep without David. I know it's silly cause we are hardly ever apart but I really miss snuggling up and feel his arms around me..
Only 2 more days!

Godnatt my friends!
