I was feeling a little crafty today, since the sweltering heat hasn’t allowed me in the garden. I have taken my Gardenchick products to craft shows before but for the last year have become interested in making jewelry. My friends Becky and Dena introduced me to jewelry making at a girls weekend getaway. I haven’t even begun to master the basics, but I seem to be drawn to the jewelry using repurposed materials, old photos, and unlike my usual taste “bling” from old rhinestone jewelry. My husband even purchased me a set of dremmel tools, and a table top vise last Christmas. They have been residing in their place of honor on the work table in my office, just waiting to be picked up and used. As fate would have it, several opportunities for craft shows have come my way, and I believe are a sign for me to pick up those tools and get started.
