Good Start to the Season

Today was my first show of the year.....got off to a slow start...not to many customers waiting for the show to start(honestly...given the choice, I would rather sleep in on Saturday too :) ).....but by 10am things started to pick up...and by 3pm I had done much better than I had hoped for such a early spring show. I have 2 more shows this month.....one next weekend, March 17th, I will be at Garfield Elem School in Springfield, VA from 9 to 3 and then on March 31st I will be at Courtland High School in Spotsylvania, VA...at little south of Rt 3

First Show of the Year!


This upcoming Saturday, March 10, 2007 is my first show of the year. I will be at GarField High School in Woodbridge, Va from 9 to 3. This is a wonderful craft show with many different types of handmade items. It is juried which means each crafter had to send in pictures and be judged on their items. This always makes for a much nicer show for the customers. High quality items and no junk :)

If you are going to be around the Potomac Mills area, stop by and say Hi !

New Look for the Website



The new year got me thinking that my website needed an updated look and I am in the process of teaching myself Photoshop (not an easy thing to do) so I decided to combine the two and come up with a new look. I love what you can do in Photoshop and the "drop shadow" makes it all look so realistic.

So come take a look at the new site....My Website

Really Good Wire


If you think about it, you could put the most expensive components...gemstones, silver and crystals on any type of wire but in the end if it breaks, your expensive piece of jewelry is scattered all over the floor....never to be worn again.....I cannot stress how important it is to ask what wire handmade jewelry is made of. I use only the highest quality 49 strand, Teflon coated jewelry wire for all my pieces. I have been using the same brand since the beginning...it really is the best. It is water proof and rust proof. And it has a test strength of 26 lbs. You can rest assured that your jewelry will last a very long time from robin's pretties
