Happy Halloween!

I just shipped off my granddaughter's Halloween Costume. Don't you love the holidays? I enjoyed making glass tile pendants for Halloween. Here are a few samples:



I sewed a few drawstring pouches for them. Here is a photo of one:




I sent my older granddaughter this black cat glass tile pendant necklace:

J & J Design Inspiration: If it weren't for bad luck...

J & J Design Inspiration: If it weren't for bad luck...

Maybe I should use the internal workings of my laptop for some altered art...

If it weren't for bad luck...

Geez Louise! My laptop crashed. We are fortunate to have a desktop in the studio. Right now I'm using John's laptop. Of course he had it locked up like Fort Knox so most of my stuff wouldn't run. Something about multi firewall conflict. Most of my photos and all the household account info are on that thing.

John had a special account set up for me when I came home from class. He's such a good hubby. Now I can relax on the couch to type. I really didn't want to spend any more time in the studio. I was in there all day until 3:00. Then I came out for lunch and to get ready for tax class.

I will be back in the studio tomorrow for more creating, picture taking, and labeling. Ah yes, inventory labeling and supplies. I need an assistant! I've been spending so much time on other business demands it has taken time away from jewelry making. Note to self, schedule some much needed torch time.

Aloha
