A little late evening posting is in order. I've signed up for Twitter about a week ago and have been totally into it! I love reading all of the posts and checking out all of the links everyone shows off. If you haven't tried it, get with the program! Just wanted to give a shout out to all my Tweeps out there! You can find me on Twitter under piecesofve.

Also, today I added myself to the Google Base using www.letsets.com. I was pretty dang proud of myself, because I really had no clue what in the world I was doing. It said I was a success though! I'm quite excited if you can't tell. It says it'll start posting in the Google Shopping section within the next 24 hours. We'll see! 

Jewelry wise I've been wire wrapping some lovely stones and pearls and crystals to sell on Etsy. My goal is to make affordable jewelry that customers can piece together for holiday gifts, or really for any occasion needed. Hopefully, I'll have sometime to take some pics this weekend. That's all for now.

Raindrop Tutorial Pic

I finally have a few minutes to come and post a pic and blog a little bit. I just wanted to show off a necklace that I created and named Raindrop. This necklace is the first tutorial that I started writing. I have not finished the tutorial yet; however, I am about half way done. It's hard having a full time job, a family, and a small business that I am trying to start. No one said it was going to be easy, I guess. I really love this necklace. It holds a special place in my heart. Hope you like it!

5 months later...

Alright, so five months later is a little long for posting on my blog, since I was posting every weekend or so for the first several weeks. What can I say, I've been busy! I just finished posting last night some of my handmade earwires that I am making for my Etsy store . They are soooo cute! I already got 3 orders. Yippee!! And, I got part of my website done and up at: piecesofve.com. My wonderful hubby, who is a very talented website developer, put it together in his free time. It's still got a little ways to go, but for now at least I have something.

Jewelry wise I have been working on a new tutorial called Circles of Life Bracelet. I'm about a 1/3 of the way finished. Lots of work, I tell ya, but once it'll be complete it will be great! The tutorial is going to feature 5 different circle designs that you can use to make a beautiful, custom bracelet. Each circle has it's own meaning - like little fortune cookies you can wear on your wrist. I'm very excited about getting it finished and posted. Depending on the interest of the tutorial, I will possibly create additional add-on circle designs down the road.

Update on my friend Alison, that I taught how to wire wrap, she is now making her own earrings that she is selling to her friends and online at her website: alimjewelry.com. She loves to use Swarovski crystals and freshwater pearls to make lovely and unique earrings. Check out her website. Keep up the good work, Ali!

I don't have any pictures to post right now. Hopefully, shortly I can get around to posting pics of the tutorial I'm currently working on and some other pieces that I have made recently.
