It’s addictive

So I am not that into video games.  If someone can talk me into trying one, then I usually enjoy it.  But I never sit down to play one or seek them out.  My hubby found this video of a new game concept while searching for something else, and he got me to watch for a bit.  He started playing the game and then we just couldn’t stop.  Check it out for yourself, you will be amazed!  The interesting piece is that the game was written by a 24 year old in less than a week.

New design added to my line!

Sterling Heart on Gold Disc
Sterling Heart on Gold Disc

Yippee, I found myself with a bit of ‘free’ time today so added another new product, the Sterling Heart on Gold Disc, to my site.  This one is very different as it is one of my first mixed metal pieces.  I took a gold-filled 5/8″ disc and overlayed a sterling heart with the name Alex on it.  I then domed the whole piece to give it a rounded look.  It was fun to make and I love the look of the two different metals together.  This looks great with a sterling chain but if you’d prefer gold, you can order it without a chain and then add a gold chain from the Chains/Chords page

 I found some other new materials, including copper discs and more gold-filled shapes.  Now it’s just a matter of adding them all to the site, one by one.  Each one takes a little time to photograph, edit, price, add options to, upload, etc.   But I’m working on it!!  Have a great week!

New hand stamped jewelry designs, just added

I have a few new designs on my site that I recently added, and I have been busy this summer creating lots of other new items that haven’t gotten past the assembly and photography stage.  But those will be added to my site soon, as well, a piece at a time.

You can see all the new items at once by going to the What’s New page on my site.  What you’ll see there now is my new line of Initial Necklaces, all of which can be bought with or without a chain.  They can be added to a pieice of jewelry you already own, or I can assemble a new piece for you with a chain and stones or other charms of your choice.  In fact, any charm on my site can really be turned into Initial Jewelry by just requesting the large, initial font in the special instructions box.  You aren’t limited to what I dreamed up!

Happy Heart Necklace

I also added two new versions of my Happy Heart.  One is simple with a name or word (shown here with Grandma) surrounded by tiny stars or polka-dots.  The other version has a smaller sterling heart stamped with a name or word that is then permanently attached to the larger heart.  It is appropriately named Happy Heart on Heart (sorry, I don’t always get that creative with my product names.) It’s very fun,unique, and something I came up with while playing around with mixing different pieces and  shapes.

Remember to keep checking back as my goal this summer is to keep adding new designs and options.

Thoughts on my new blog

I am happy to finally be able to join the blogging world!  After some help from my husband and some tinkering with WordPress, I am able to check off one of the many things on ‘my list’ that need to get done.  That list never seems to get smaller, but it still feels good to check something off.  Plus, this is something that I think will be fun for me, as I have lots to say about designing Mommy Jewelry, and running this business.

As I tell my friends, I live, breathe and dream about my jewelry business so I can honestly say it’s my passion.  It definitely keeps me sane while being the lucky mom of three very busy and happy kids.  Well, maybe it doesn’t keep me sane, but it does give me lots to ponder while being the chauffeur all over town.

So until later, ciao and thanks for reading!
