And it's Still Winter

I keep hoping, maybe if I don't watch the weather report, it won't be freezing outside.  My plan of avoidance isn't working.  It's still dang cold out there, and I still hate winter, and I am still dreaming of moving to the equator.

This weather seems to have frozen everything in its tracks.  We can't get this done because it's super windy, now it's snowing, now it's too cold... and this can't be done, until this is done, and if it would just stay warm for like three days we could do all of this.  Each day the to-do list just grows, and I'm seriously thinking about installing sunlamps in my entire house.  Winter, you so are not scouring any points with me.

And even though I'm not sure if the great garden build will happen this year, I'm thinking it's time to drag out the seed trays, and time to buy some dirt to play in... anything that makes it not so wintery for at least ten minutes.

The only bonus to this ice age is that I have no guilt what-so-ever sitting inside, next to the fireplace getting things made for the shop.  And I'm actually excited, because I've finally been able to pull out an old project, and update it to something that has really been taking off.


And the double bonus is that I am lucky enough to be working with a renaissance designer as a source for my buttons, and several metal smiths for a really exciting feature that will be added to these bracelets real soon!  You're just going to have to wait to see what we're working on!  I love, love, LOVE the resources my team on Etsy brings to me, and the amazing people I've been meeting!


To see more of the bracelets I have been creating you can check out my Jewelry Section in my shop!  

Now excuse me while I go put on ANOTHER sweatshirt...
