Price Jump!

Wow, I haven't been watching the price of silver lately (my computer was broken), but now its at $20. What?! I thought it was bad when it was $17-$18. I mean it is only a couple of dollars, but when I am in college (or really anyone these days) a couple of dollars can determine how much I can really get. Silver please go down, I want to do a metal order!!!

I started my sophomore year of college today, and so far so good. This year is going to be great. I want to be able to do well in school, while balancing everything else, work, friends, and of course jewelry. I am still looking into opening an etsy shop. I just need to get a little more settled into school to really start. That way it gives me time to get some inventory finished, and to have pictures taken. As soon as I open up a shop, I will definitely announce it here.
I had some free time the other day, and I went and took some cool pictures of the roses around campus. I have to pick some favorites, and I will share them in a later post.

Shipments and Project Runway

I really hope that my shipment from Fire Mountain Gems comes today, I really want to make some new pieces with the crystals!
So I have been reading the etsy metal blog for awhile, and I really love how they do the challenge of Project Runway, in relation to jewelry. I have been watching Project Runway a lot, because it does inspire me to work on new pieces, so this challenge will make it even better. My sketchbook will definitely be in use during the show.

Happy creating!
