Most freakishly, productive day ever.

Obsessed. I really must be. In between crock pot orders and the hours 8pm - 2:34am, what's a creative girl to do? Go to sleep? Aww...too easy. And all this cool bling and vintage jewelry sitting around. I know, let's make more stuff! Like one-of-a-kind necklaces. Some curios I find, that must be gathered up even though not applicable to slapping into a layer of grout (crucial step for mosaic work) are fabric based. Example: this crazy little polka-dot, abstract owl I found at Lakewood 400.



Me thinks it was supposed to be a shoe adornment. Who knows. I snapped it up months ago, not knowing what its new fate would be. This week, its back clip was removed reconfiguring it to be the star of this black, red and white neck piece. Add a few more dangles here and there - old earrings no longer in ear-lobe service, and...Voila! Completly unique chunky-funky necklace! As if the world really needs one more piece of jewelry. Oh well.

But now I was on a...what'd you call it? Oh yeah. A roll! What else is lying around here dying to reincarnate into a necklace? I scrummied through my drawers-o-stuff. Put on a pot of coffee. Built three more necklaces. Took some photos. More coffee. Designed a quick, little website. More coffee. Bat husband away - "For the love of God Kathleen, come to bed!" - end quote. Finally, finally, Sleep commenced.

In the morning, I awoke. Snapped on my computer. Entered my new URL:

And smiled.
Now that's what I call a freakishly, productive day.
