Getting Back in the Creative Groove

It's been a busy year plus - marriage, new home, new job - and making jewelry took a backseat to all of it. In October 2010, I signed up to be an independent stylist with Stella & Dot. I'm torn between focusing on it and making jewelry - each has things that I love.

With the new home came what I refer to as my 'work room' (love Tim Gunn and Project Runway). My work room serves as my craft room and home office. One of the great things about the new job is that I work from home (more about that later).

I finally got the work room set up so it's functional for me. Getting it functional is all it took to get me back in the groove of making jewelry. I've added a few pics below of my favorite pieces. My Etsy shop has a good amount of jewelry available for sale; however, I've been focusing most of my energy on getting ready for a trunk show in my home.

I love the color combination of these pieces. My cousin, Veronica, treated herself to the inner necklace.

One of my all time favorite combos - this is three necklaces.
