Our forever Yours series

I'm never one that likes sitting around and just "waiting".  If I'm standing in line at a grocery store for instance, you will find me taking advantage of the few moments and thumbing through any of the magazines at the stand that catch my interest.

I also keep a notebook in my purse for other times when I am sitting and waiting so I can constantly make lists of what I need to do or jot down any inspirations for my clay that come to mind.

The other day Dave was describing to me an idea he had for a necklace design.  We were waiting at Mr. Lube and so I decided to do some sketching in my trusty notebook I had along and this is what we came up with:

The real test was to put it into clay and we decided to name it our "forever Yours" series.

   

   

I love how things turn out just like you planned but even better.  I have a piece similar to these for myself to wear and I received so many comments on it, I think it is a keeper.

All packed and ready to go

I'm taking off to the coast early tomorrow and I'm quite excited.  I will be attending a workshop by Julie Picarello this weekend.  I'm looking forward to seeing some of my clay friends I hadn't seen in a while and making some new ones.  Will also be fun learning some new techniques from Julie.

I have some other new designs I've been working on lately.  Some new buttons and new pendants and earrings.  Here is a little sample of what is to come:

In the meantime, have a great weekend!
