I was juried into the Louisville Artisans Guild this year. I'm really psyched about it. We do a two day Holiday show Nov 2 and 3. I'm psyched about that too, but in a much more frazzled way. My jewelry inventory has been low recently so I've been torching, making many many beads ! I feel okay about what I've been making and slowly I am accumulating more and more product. The thing that worries me is setting up my booth. I have a general idea about what it's going to look like, and we set up the day before, but will it all come together the way I envision?? Stress, I know I could use more of that :) Here's a picture of one of my new bracelets. It has an antique button clasp and copper findings. Standing on my arthritic feet for two days will be an adventure, but I love doing shows because of all the interesting people you meet….and the things you hear. ("Don't buy that bracelet, Sally. We can go to Michael's, Walmart, etc, and get some beads and make the same thing.")……….Oh really? :) I'll show you some more beads later next week. I need sleep !!
P.S. A stink bug actually dive bombed my face this week while I was torching…….the nerve of some bugs. HB got him!!

I'm very excited about your show. Take a chair to give your "dogs" a rest whenever possible.
