PAINT PARTY FRIDAY YARD SALE AND ART

Hi Everyone!

It is time again for the best party, Paint Party Friday. A huge thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting. This week I actually drew a face and started a special order bead piece. Plus I got a few more cabs made. They have been selling quite well and I am happy about that.  
 
 So first the face. I have not drawn anything for several months and I have really missed it. 


Marbled Gold Leaf Cab. This has so much depth to it.

Green Eyed, with lots of shine

This is so pretty in real life. My camera just can't capture all the colors and shine

Here is one of my Day of the Dead Cabs. A special order. So far my hands are OK with it.


Last but not lease for all of you who live in or near the Florence, OR. area I will be having a very large yard sale Saturday Sept. 30 and maybe Sunday if the weather holds. If you are interested in stopping by email me for my address  EMAIL  LOTS AND LOTS OF GOOD ITEMS. BEADS, TOOLS, ELECTRONICS, FURNITURE, VERY NICE CLOTHES, AND MORE.... It all has to go!


On last thing, when you see my blog how is the font? Large, small or just right? 
I have been having trouble with it.
Thanks

I STILL LOVE SHOES

Hi Everyone!

I haven't done a shoe post in a long while and decided to show off what I found.  If I were rich I would have a  house full of funny and unique shoes. aaahhhh I guess that will have to be in my next life. LOL For now I have these. Enjoy. 








 These are just creepy

PAINT PARTY FRIDAY

  Hi Everyone!

I am one who likes change when I am in charge of the changes. Other wise don't mess with my routine. It you have an Etsy store, you know that over the last few years they have had several CEOs that have made changes NOT conducive to the hand crafted artist or supply seller.  That is how Etsy started and made their money, however, that was all changed several years ago allowing big business to come in and sell. Ya know corporate greed.  Then, other small changes and this year huge changes. Especially changing the algorithm of how people can find you on Etsy. It leans all towards the big sellers. Of course then they put in Etsy Studio, another harmful addition for sellers. Personally my sales on any given day have dropped 85 to 100%, and it is SO VERY NICE of Etsy to show me those facts right on my dashboard. A few months ago I reopened my Beadwright website and the other day closed my Beadwright Etsy store. I actually put it on vacation mode with a note directing people to my website. Ya know, if anyone is even going there. LOL  Sooooo I said all of that to say that working my website again has taken all of my time and I didn't  have much art this week.  I have these hand painted cabs and this silly box that I have fallen in love with and have filled with personal goodies. 
These smaller 25x25mm cabs are a bit more  difficult to paint than the larger ovals.







Now for silly, just to show people they can make ANYTHINGfor my Sparkle Cab contest.



A big thanks to Eva and Kristen for hosting Paint Party Friday and to all the artists who share each week. Looking forward to seeing what you created.

Cab Crazy

Hi Everyone!

Here it is Sunday and I am going Cab Crazy. Ya know creating cabs.  These are my sparkly shine cabs.  Poured resin to make a 40x30mm cabochon. Then painted with a high gloss glitter. Not sprayed. After it is thoroughly  dry it is then sealed with a triple glass coating. I MEAN SHINE. My photos don't show how deep the shine is.  These can be found at  Beadwright.com or Beadwright Etsy
These are not just for jewelry, add them to your collages, or multimedia art.

Hi Everyone!

These are my newest hand painted glass cabs. These are still curing and need to be cleaned and then sealed but I love this batch.  Hope everyone is having a great weekend.
