Fandom and first day on the job
I just found the YUMMIEST beadwork, by an Aussie artist. One of those enjoyable I love the internet moments when you find an aesthetic twin halfway around the world - her work and mine are in some ways frighteningly similar, especially some of the pieces I'm working up now in glass:
Slave to the Beads
First day on the job was very pleasant.
Sad part is that I completely SPACED a meeting with some people who want bombalurina stuff wholesale (scream)
I hate double booking. I hate being a flake. I try not to be, but sometimes I scare myself. I used to be very on the ball in school, I just feel like living so long without a fixed schedule is turning me into an idiot. I was very on-time for this job though. It's like I can only be on top of one game or two at most at once. *sigh*

Huge bank of blogs
It's amazing how many Etsy sellers are keeping blogs. This is a giant repository of links.

Showpieces
I've been throwing myself into making some larger and time consuming necklaces, made from hefty amounts of sterling silver.
I love chain, but I don't like wimpy chain. That said, I also don't like signing my life away for a foot of chain. The silver market is scary. Luckily I found something I like in a good weight that doesn't hurt too much at a local store. It was on sale. I think I'm going to have to hunt down something similar in larger quantities.
I've also taken a JOB at my local bead store. I like this place and it seems they're short so this may be mutually beneficial. It's an odd thing, though. I haven't had to show up to work beyond rolling out of bed and hitting the computer or the bench in well over 2 years, not including the year I was laid up. This will be interesting. Discount is good though, basically wholesale pricing.

Winners Garnets and Ginger
The September challenge was fun - I wound up with a pretty good showing, but didn't end up voting for myself - there was some work which really blew me away including this, the winner, from Manek Lady.
Isn't it just amazing?
In local news, I've found the best scone in Minneapolis. It's at Cafe Maude which I just can't say enough great things about. Whether you opt for the buttermilk, or the blueberry ginger, you will find it has a palatable texture, something most scones totally fail, amazing flavor that only actual butter and good ingredients will give, and best of all, an appropriate size, so you can feel momentarily naughty and not like you are indulging in the dietary setback from hell. No overinflated Starbucks sawdust packet - this is a thing of beauty. Get the blueberry ginger (yes ginger, just the right amount, too) and pair it with the chai teabag and go stroll in the southwest metro rain by the creek.
I did.
Now that I'm warm and dry, I've been playing more with those garnet marquise beads:
Rhodolite garnet, 24K plated delicas, a little goldfilled clasp. Something elegant and quasi-ancient looking.
