I've just got to tell you how much I love everything that has to do with jewelry design. I have been spending the last few days doing the paperwork aspect of LMJD (Liz Mathews Jewelry Design). Even though paperwork can be boring, I just couldn't be happier!!! Today I also got to spend some time in the studio working one some prototypes for additions to my India line. I think im on to something.... And im happy to announce that I am beginning to work in gold. YAY!

This weekend there is a large buyers market in Philly that I will be going too to on sunday. Im hoping to be in this show in a few years, so im excited to go see all the work, as well as details like booth set-up, promotional material, and fun things like that. I'll be going with some old classmates, and Im looking forward to seeing them, and enjoying a little bit of philly!

Latest addiction: The Dixie Chicks new cd! Amazing! I cant wait until i know all the words so i can sing along in the car. Its one of my fav past-times! Def check it out!

I'm usually not a fan of things like this (and i don't know why), but i have really grown to love work by Sally Jean. There is something so charming, and appealing about the work she makes! I feel like you cant own just one of her pieces, it HAS to be a collection. I feel that way about a lot of things though... oh well... Sally Jean wrote a book out about how to make your own, and while i haven't ventured down that path yet, my mom has, and i have been informed its much hard than it looks. I'll stick with buying them!

My apologies in advance. Im trying to make an interesting blog, so Im following the lead of some of my other favorite blogs. Once i get the hang of things, i promise to be more original!
