Well I keep telling myself I'm going to blog more. I'm going to keep some kind of schedule in my life but then life gets away from me again. But I'm back on track, at least the blogging track any way. I've been busy preparing for this weekends Handmade Harvest show in the Almonte Agricultural Hall. It's a must see show on Saturday May 7 from 10am-5pm. The first 50 people get free swag bags. Now who can resist that. At the last show people were lined up before the doors opened! So now you know why I haven't been blogging and here is what I've been up to.
This is how I left my work table last night. See the white box that says ready for tumbling?That's todays job. Well I might get a few more pieces ready to tumble first, but then it's into the tumbler and then they have to be assembled into wonderful jewelry creations. Mostly I'm working on some new earring designs but a necklace and a few bracelets got in there when I lost focus on earrings. Does anyone else have this problem? When I'm set on creating one thing other things take over. I've learned to go with the flow. I usually get some of my favourite pieces during these times.
This is the long side view of my work table. As you can see I've been using my new disc cutter and dabber. Sooo much fun!! I've finally been able to make some of those designs that have been in my head for ages. You would think this would leave a little empty space in my brain but no, the more I ideas I use the more ideas come into my head. I've been thinking about what I'm grateful for lately and today I think that is what I'll be grateful for, an endless supply of creative ideas to work with!So I'm off to get more out of my brain.
If you'd like to check out some more creative desks go over to Stamping Ground for WOYWW.
Have a wonderful creative day.

It looks like a really great desk to work at....and I truly can relate to having so many ideas and attempting to get them all out. I always have so many projects going at once...but it's the only way I feel fulfilled. I actually wish I could sleep less so I had more time to get everything done. So cheers to you for making the space in your brain to keep filling up!! thx for sharing, june
Absolutely what happens to me....I have 10 started projects....sometime the direction comes to me later and I make much better pieces by waiting...I'm not crazy about multiple duplication....I get bored...but if they are good sellers, I'll do it~ Curious about your tumbling box....do you tumble after oxidizing or before....to get a shine???
Gorgeous creative desk .Lots going on and i like what i see.Have creative week

To clean copper jewelry, you can use commercial cleaners, Worcestershire sauce, ketchup, or water with lemon juice and salt.
Good luck on what you are working at. I'm sure it will turn out well like the others you have made before.
A lot of works that you need to do huh! Good luck to your desk work. Your success is my wish.
