New, Fun Stuff!

So here I am making all these fabulous headbands for my daughter - big, bright flowers - they look so cute! Well, next thing I know, I've made tons of them - so much fun. And everyone wants one! So, lately I'm spending all my free time making headbands - well, I figured I better share them with all of you! If you love 'em and need one there are lots on my website: www.rigglettes.com

The Daily Favorite

Are you kidding me?? Look at the color of these amazing fun beads! You have to love and appreciate a mind that comes up with this...

Favorite Components pt. 2

If you've looked at even one of my other posts you know that I love color. So, what the heck is going on with all these little danglers? Well, I also love - sparkle! These unassuming little danglers are the perfect filler when you want a little extra oompf in your art. I use them in between beads in bracelets and at the end of a bracelet to cover the gap made by a toggle. They pack a lot of punch, so don't pass them up too quickly when you're out hunting up just the right thing to make that jewelry Bling!

My Favorite Components (part 1)

At first glance these little rubber rings may look like nothing exciting - sort of like those little rubber bands for braces.... BUT if you look closer and imagine for a moment.... ah, yes - the inspiration comes! Theres an endless list of cool things you can do with these little guys! They come in a million colors and sizes and can really add pizzazz to your jewelry! Heres a few picts to help inspire you to round up some color!!

Mermaid Harvest

I had such a good time last weekend at the Makers Market in Solomans Md! One of the coolest vendors there had made these amazing earrings out of enameled metal beads - of course I had to have a pair!! Here's a little look at what she can do with copper - and if you want to see more check out her Etsy site: www.etsy.com/shop/amermaidsharvest

Lovely to Look At!

As promised, I've been making some fun stuff from the beads that I got last week from Laura Critchfield - here's a little sample of what I've been making:
