Inconsistencies

July 10, 2006

Last night, while tired and migrainey, I sketched some new earring designs. Today I’m trying to make them reality. Wish me luck. I went to a bead show yesterday, and picked up a bunch of basalt (lava) beads. I also got a great deal on some rubies. Pretty exciting. So exciting, in fact, that I […]

Business as Unusual

May 18, 2006
