Crafting

I need to make some horsehair earrings. Actually, Husband makes the tassles for me and I pair them up with beads and the earwires. I had them laid out and was on a roll when Tom Kitty decided to help me. He managed to flop down on and roll all over everything so I got pissed and put them up. I finish some later.

It was  fast day. Kind of busy for a Monday, but we still got out early. Tomorrow should be the same. I hope so. I still am tired from remodeling. I am old. And tired. And old.

I am going to search for a few jewelry making blogs tonight. First I have to figure out how to save them to my own blog to read later as well as follow them. I like to get marketing tips from other crafters. I found one site on making really sharp looking earring cards. I spend more time trying to figure out how to rotate the type and add stuff to cards that I get frustrated and quit. So maybe I can finds some hints. 

My friend suggested looking on You Tube and I could watch someone design a card...I'll try that too. I used to buy great business cards with designs already on them so I could print off a sheet at a time. They work well...but I want to add a few personal touches. 

Have you ever drank Darjeeling tea? It's good. Have I asked that question before? It sounds familiar?

My hands are really stiff. I was having a hard time dealing with the head pins when making the earrings earlier. Maybe I should knit or crochet something to loosten them up. I still have lots of yarn (drawers of it!) and I should make a few more hat and scarf sets. Plus I can read and knit at the same time!

It's only 6:30 and I have plenty of 'working time' left before sleepy time. I don't think any thing good is coming on tonight. We have a million movies, so I'm sure something will stike our fancy.

I was going to post a few photos, but don't have access to them from the itty bitty netbook. Need to figure out how to transfer them, too. Maybe they are in my Yahoo account? I'll check it out.
Well...have a great evening and will see you later!! Ciao!!
