HMMMM....
Lately I´ve being thinking about learning more about plastics. I really think plastics are my favorite material for my jewelry, so I figured I should try learning how to work it. Problem is I haven´t found any workshops or seminars that give an intro. There´s a lot about metalsmithing, which I taking a beginners course. I totally love it. Who would have figured... I tought fabric was my main thing, and altough I totally love fabric and designing and sewing people are buying my necklaces more than my clothing line!!! I guess my enthusiasm is visible in my work!!! I´m hooked on jewelry!!

Everything has stood still.....
I was sure that all my activity and all those sells in september and the first days of october were signs of things to come. I even told my self that if things continued I would finally quit mu day job. But suddenly everything has stood still... Tha last two weeks have beins SLOWWWWWW!!! Not one sell. Not a single one.
Of course that doesn´t mean that i´ve quit the race. Nope siree!! I´ve being making necklaces and earring. I´ve even addded brooches!!! Real cute with fabric and buttons and lace!! CUTEEE!!
I´m trying really hard not to give up. I question every day why I´ve decided not to dedicate myself to history and teaching. I know deep down it´s because creating brings me in touuch with my inner self. It´s necessary for my happiness. I would not be complete in a life that didn´t included creating and working with my hands. No doubt that a stable job could pay more and give me benefits. But what are they worth if they deadend my inside, my fire. Don´t you think.
Any ways here are some of my brooches and necklaces!!
