Make It Monday: Garnet Topaz Ring, Reclaimed Pilgrim Glass Jar

Before I get to this week's new projects, I am working every Monday in Oct, so Make it Monday posts will be delayed. I finished one other project today, but didn't get pics of it yet. My Etsy shop started with jewelry that was made with gemstones from my personal collection. I got away from that over the years learning new things, and just being bored. I have added several new gemstone pieces to my shop, and will try to make a new piece each month.

 The one shown is most likely Red Garnet, and White Topaz, sterling silver, size 7, double stone bypass ring. I love red and white together, especially in the Winter months. Finally it is cool enough, here in FL, in the eves to be outside doing new etched glass pieces. The one below is a huge 11 inch reclaimed glass jar with Be Ye Thankful, pilgrims and pumpkins etched into the glass. I did the image so that the jar can be inverted with a solar light or flameless candle under it.

 Both of these items are available in my Etsy shop. Don't forget to check out my Redbubble account, where you can buy photography and original painting gifts.

Make It Monday!

So, I have missed a few Mondays, lol. I have been busy creating, just not necessarily on Monday. I did the rings before we evacuated for Irma, but could not get a blog post done. The others I did after we returned, sporadically, when I got a chance. Now that we are back to homeschooling, Mondays might be any day of the week.

 I finally got my crochet hooded poncho completed, and I love it. It is so warm. It is not for me, though, lol. It is available for purchase in my Etsy shop, and can be made to order in other colors. The rings are also listed in my Etsy shop, two Zandrite, and one Amethyst. You can always find me by searching Missy69 on Etsy, Mrr05 on Ebay, and Missy69 on Redbubble. Which reminds me the last item is my Halloween painting for 2017, Bat Kisses. This one is an edited version of the original painting, using photo shop features. I edited it several times, with some cool looks. All of them will eventually be available on gift items on Redbubble.

 I have started a new crochet project, which should go pretty fast, I hope. I have a new ring setting coming, and it is getting cool enough to start back up with wood burning projects, and etched glass projects. Just in time for the Holidays!

Getting Back to Business

Well we did end up evacuating from Hurricane Irma.  I had my Etsy shop on vacation for several days.  All of my shops are now up and running again, Etsy, Ebay, and Redbubble.  I have so many projects to get done for Fall/Halloween.  I feel like a whole week was wasted.  Of course it wasn't, but it feels like it.  I did finish a new art project, with another started, and the hooded poncho is almost done.  I still have to skull fairy garden light posts to make, and I made a bunch of new rings before leaving.  Stay tuned I am still here.

Make It Monday

The last two Mondays have been crazy, and this next one doesn't look any better. I have been making new products, but have not had time to do complete posts. Below is one of my new rings. I did a couple of paintings, not yet listed, and should finish the hooded crochet cape today. I am prepping for Hurricane Irma, so all these items will be stored, and hopefully safe. After is all good and clear, I will do a decent post. Stay safe if you are in the path of this storm, and pray, always pray.
