June...

It's been a whirlwind couple of weeks at SINjewelry.

We were in Edmonton for the Indie Handmade Fair:

(My friend, Tracy, came up to help me out.)

It was great to meet many of the other Etsy sellers from Alberta in person!

After that, it was back to Lloyd with some major press coverage resulting
from winning the Arts Without Borders Bursary!

There was coverage on the news from the Quick Draw/Mayor's Celebration of the Arts.
There were four artists there - Janet Magdanz (a potter & leader in the Lloyd Pottery Guild), Graham Flatt (internationally recognized watercolour artist), Cindy Sorley-Keichinger (internationally known wildlife artist) and myself. I was in good company!

Both papers also wrote articles on my work:

So, I've been getting a lot of attention.
Time to get to work and create!!

Here are some of my latest.

This is a new style of Mommy Bling, designed in conjunction with Rhonda Friesen:

I taught all of Rhonda's kids, so she wanted me to use my own handwriting
instead of stamps for a more personal touch.
She also chose a cupped pendant with the birthstones and a floating heart
to compliment the name pendant.
I really like it.

This is a Tree of Life Mommy Bling Necklace.

I made the branches and roots curly for a change.

And here are some of the pieces I currently have for sale.
