Hooray! after much work by Jennifer, my graphic designer, my blog has a new look that matches my new website...I now have a cohesive look for all my online sites.
She also did a great job on my business cards.
The missing piece of the puzzle? My creations!
I've not been in the studio for weeks while the biz setup 'stuff' was being worked on.
But NOW- the fun begins--- in a short time, I will be making enamel pieces as well as sterling silver and copper items.
So many ideas swirling around inside my head. 'Course those ideas morph and change once I pick up the metal and tools...
I'm 'seeing' enamelled pieces with multi-sized holes drilled into them as part of the design. Maybe a "foxglove" inspired forged, drilled, enamelled pendant.
Yesterday I picked geranium leaves in various sizes to make some Precious Metal Clay items. Do you know how much time it takes to find leaves that are the same size?! They should make the prettiest little fine silver earrings...

Exciting Days
Feelin' skippy this morning. DH and I have been battling an awful chest cold 'souvenir' from his last biz trip...Today I woke up and 'forgot' I was sick so that means I'm finally getting well.
Exciting time in my life. I've been occupied with setting up my business- Golden Water Creations. Last nite I purchased my website and shopping cart. Graphic designer is hard at work on 'stuff'.
I will be placing a bank breaking sterling silver wire and sheet order (ohhh to have dreamed of this biz for so many years and be opening it with silver spot @$19.38/oz and rising....let's not mention gold prices, you won't be seeing much if ANY of that in my shop...)
but then let the fun begin... I hope to put on my 'creating' hat (Note to self: count up how many 'hats' a one-woman business wears...)
My mind is filled to BURSTING with projects: earrings, bracelets, book marks, magnets, note cards, table runners for Thanksgiving, flower hair accessories, garden silverplate items....I actually think it will be a problem just having 100 product "spots" in my GoldenWaterCreations.com shop. My Etsy shop will be stocked and re-opened with new product as well.
I learned alot in my photography workshop last month and my lite cube and gorilla tripod have arrived. Boy the gorilla tripod is cool invention...www.goby.com
As if the thrill of using my new jewelry torch isn't ENOUGH in one month---I will be taking an AWESOME 2 day intensive Enameling Workshop in Bellevue, KY later in September. How's that for a birthday present?
