My Secret is Out…

OK folks, I often get asked how I find the time to be crafty and creative…well, it is due to the fact that I avoid housework at all costs LOL! I was sitting in my living room Sunday morning with the sun streaming through the windows and I thought the beads looked pretty all lit up so I decided to snap a photo of them on the windowsill. I had no IDEA how filthy the window was until I looked at the photo on my computer…I’m kinda hoping the jewelry is so stunning that no one will notice my slovenly ways….

…nice cobwebs, huh? I do have a house cleaning tip though: Invite people over! That way you will be motivated to dash around and clean! I think most of my friends just think I am a really social person, when in fact I just need the threat of people seeing my home to set me to cleaning 🙂

I have been into making chandelier earrings lately, they are fun but I will warn you take more time than you think and use up jump-rings and head pins like crazy! I have had to “borrow” from my kids stash and pick up more findings twice last week! I saw in the Joann flyer that all jewelry making supplies were going to be 50% off from 6am-noon on black Friday and there is a 25% off your total purchase coupon (although it might not work on the jewelry stuff since it is a “doorbuster”) and I must say I am tempted to break my “no Black Friday shopping 36 year streak” and stock up. I mean, I am using beads like they are going out of style! I sure hope other people like my jewelry at the craft fair next month 😀 Thanks for stopping by and til next time happy crafting!
