Okay, so we all know it is going to be sweltering hot tomorrow. But there's still a whole market full of vendors who need your support! So come out early if you can and beat the heat! I will be in spot number J-4 tomorrow. I haven't been in J row since last year. Market is from 8a-12p but I'm always around a little after 12 too. It is possible I will be at market next Saturday 7/27 as well but I've yet to have solid childcare plans. If you ever want to know where I am going to be,...

I am going to keep my post short and sweet today because, honestly I would rather be making jewelry instead of sitting at this computer!

I have finally invested in some 14 karat rose gold-filled wire and findings. It's a pretty rose color very similar to copper. But it won't patina and...

I chose to hand make this turquoise chain with the 14k ROSE gold-filled wire that I have recently started working with. I have always been drawn to copper but I have a hard time wearing it and therefore I don't work in it. I need to explore some techniques incorporating it where it doesn't touch the skin. BUT the ROSE gold-filled has a very coppery look to it. And I love it with the turquoise! I've added small faceted pyrite accents and sterling silver bali flowers.
