ETSY BEADWEAVERS TEAM

Yeah!! I finally got the courage to join the Etsy Beadweavers Team!!

I have been lurking in the shadows...voting for all the Challenges every month. Salivating at the artistic prowess of these AMAZING artisans...now I am in their ranks and hoping to enter my own pieces in the monthly Challenges.

If you are not familiar with these Challenges, you can become educated at this site:

The Challenge VOTING begins the 9th of EVERY MONTH and ends the 15th.
EVERYONE is invited to vote for their favorite entry. Entries are submitted via each member's Etsy Shop.

I am currently hard at work composing what I hope will be my very first entry in this upcoming Challenge for April:

"Spring Around The Corner"

Please come and join me in my enthusiasm for this Spectacular Etsy Team by getting involved in the voting process.

THREE ARTFIRE CRAZY TRAIN RIDERS!

I love the talented http//www.artfire.com/users/ldphotography I believe the fabulous pendant below is a FINE example of their artistic prowess!The item below is from Yours Truli http//www.artfire.com/users/YoursTruli. She specializes in the vintage, antique style jewellry of bygone eras! Her quality is exceptional & creativity is extraordinary!

And finally http//www.artfire.com/users/acadienne
or ACADIENNE items are the following two photos. She tells a really interesting story in her blog on her studio page about the origins of her shop name.

This particular studio is near & dear to my heart for two reasons: first, I have experienced making hardanger items myself; second, she is located in Tucson, my hometown.

I encourage everyone reading my blog to visit these fabulous studios on ARTFIRE!!
While you are there, consider their handmade artwork for your own or gift giving pleasure.

I am finally trying to catch up on all my blogging endeavors now that a bit of the dust has settled from my mother's passing. Don't get me wrong, the turmoil continues, I am just trying to return to some form of normalcy for my own SANITY!
