Friday Fun!
I've been on Spring Break this week so I have enjoyed a few minutes to create some fun stuff! Curling is my winter sport so I decided to make a little earring and necklace set to donate to our local bonspeil (curling tournament). The pendant is Sterling Silver and the earrings are hand-painted shrinkable plastic. I hope you enjoy it as much as I did making it!

Store Closing Sale!
After many years and many friendly customers, I have decided to close my ebay Bead Therapy store.
For those of you who just gasped, take a deep breath in and out. Good. Now let me tell you the good news. Both my Etsy sites as well as my main site, http://www.artsiedesigns.com/ will remain open. Ebay has just become too expensive for me to make any sort of profit. So, I decided to move my listings to my Etsy bead shop instead.
During the transition, customers will have the opportunity to save big on all remaining inventory on my Ebay store. Please be patient with me as things might get a little tricky inventory-wise and we may encounter some out-of-stock items.
The sale begins April 1, 2011 with one full week of FREE SHIPPING for U.S. and Canadian customers! I will add specials and discounts until everything is gone or June 1, 2011, whichever comes first!
Visit Bead Therapy today to get a preview of all of my fabulous beads and findings!

Materials
The jewelry materials I ordered arrived today. I purchased 50 yards of chain (not that I need to use anything close to that but bulk prices help sweeten the deal) and a variety of other findings as well as some packaging. As I unwrapped the packages, I realized that there were no spools of chain in the box. I dug further and discovered that the chain was piled into plastic bags! I am certainly going to have a lovely time untangling my new materials! Maybe the untangling time will inspire me.... or annoy me ... or both... We'll see. I'll post pictures when I make something fun!
P.S. I love the packaging that I ordered. It's going to look great with my new logo!

Saturday Night Poll
I'd like your help in deciding what to make next. Each week, I'll be sharing a handful of my designs and would like you to vote on your favorite! On February 19th, I'll take a name at random from those who participated in the survey. That person will win $10 worth of merchandise or merchandise discounts in my store! One vote per person, please! And thanks for your help!
