2009: Off to a solid start!

With the expected flurry of activity surrounding the holidays, today is my 1st post of 2009 (now that the dust has settled).

I've got a few different things in the works. I'm most excited about a collaboration I have going withMarni of Nella Bella Beads. I have an incredible strand of lampwork glass beads that Marni has created, and I'm making them into jewelry. The first piece I made was this gorgeous bangle bracelet:


I have a necklace I'm working on as well, that will be STUNNING when it's finished.


I've made a necklace for myself with a gorgeous cobalt blue lampworked bead also created by Marni.



While I'm aching to create more jewelry, I'm also trying to balance this with expanding my internet presence. I am now selling my jewelry on Handmade Fusion and Art Fire, as well as iCraft, etsy and DaWanda. More on these to come in the near future.


I've also started a Twitter page, I have my own business page on Facebook, I have a MySpace profile, I'm on Ning, and I'm trying to figure out Squidoo. Then there are the blogs at WordPress and Blogger. It's a lot to keep track of!
