a little update and a blog give away

I haven't gotten enough interest in the round robing so I'm going to hold off for now.  I'm still enameling beads and etching metal.

 When my creativity is low or blocked i try to make components for future projects. Sometimes this works and sort of jump starts my creativity . but lately it hasn't,so a friend of mine and I are going to work our way through some of my many jewelry books. So far that seems to be helping .

These lovely earrings are for my first ever blog give away ! So if you want to enter to win them just comment. next Friday I'll pull a name

Long time lurker, first time commenter! I've used your resin & tin jewelry tutorials; you've got me hooked on making pendants & charms! Unfortunately, I seem to have a permanent creative block when it comes to actually making finished pieces out of my little bits... C'est la vie!

Thank you so much ! Don't feel bad about making little bits and bobs . I do the same thing,I even have a small drawer filled with resin things and etched metal... ok everything. I find that as long as i'm making something the creative block will eventually go away.

Sorry there weren't enough people for the round. =< I would still love to participate, if you ever try one again. When I'm in a slump, I have a friend or relative pick something out of one of my bead magazines. That usually ends up pushing me out of my comfort zone - I hope going through your book helps you!
