Life Lately - It's all about the bling

Some snaps from the last couple of weeks or so. . . Sometimes, based on my photos, one would think I live, sleep, breathe, think jewelry. . . oh, wait, I do! Happily so.

A few of the goodies that were shipped off after my Etsy flash sale ended. 

Stones all lined up for my By Chance horseshoe necklaces. Front to back of photo: labradorite, lapis lazuli, green onyx, carnelian. 

Wearing some earrings my sister made for me a few years ago. These are made of copper, silk ribbon and jasper stones. She's pretty creative, that sister of mine!

A shot from just this past weekend at the Temescal street fair here in Oakland.

Hammer-time =)

Part of my display at the Treasure Island Flea Market. This market is the last weekend of every month. You can find me there about 2 to 3 times a year. (Check my events page for upcoming fairs.)

By Chance and Featherlight pieces all prepped and ready to ship off to shop!

July is really looking so crazy for me this year. Car repairs, doc. appointments, wholesale orders, working on my new pieces for my fall/winter collection. And sales taxes are due at the end of the month too. Oh boy, oh boy! Time sure is it's own train that just keeps on moving whether you're ready for the ride or not. 

(All photos are from my Instagram.)

Weekly Adventures

Or, a new series better known as "my life as portrayed on Instagram". . . 

kitchen corners: a God's eye made by my friend Molly. She's got a whole collection of these that she's made and they're all super rad.

Oakland's First Friday, aka Art Mumur. I set up a booth outside with Jeff. He sold his posters. I sold my baubles. Pretty good deal =)

Some weekend essentials. I headed out to Patterson to see my family on Saturday. It reached 109 out there! Woweee!

Coffee to start my day in one of my all time favorite mugs.

Arlo, the wonderful cat that he is. He always know when I need to relax. As in, "don't worry about this laundry, mom. It's making a great bed!"

Sera (Jeff's daughter) had a photo exhibit with her photo class at Berkeley High last week. Her series was of snapshots from many different college campuses on the east cost. She visited a bunch of campuses a few weeks ago with her mom ('cause she'll be applying to colleges this November!)

There's lots going on here at the Tangleweeds studio too! Just to entice you, I'll be posting here about a sale in my Etsy shop later this week. . . 

Oh, it's fun to tease =)
