Bracelets

So today...instead of laundry and cleaning... I've been doing this.

Making bracelets.

Hand wiring the beads is rather addictive.

Of course, I can only do it during the day.

On account of

I'm old

and

I need real grown up glasses.

Instead of these that I get at Michaels

for

$1.99

less my 40% off coupon.

But I really, really like these!!

Moving on -  today I can see

so here we go:

I found some old turquoise color beads

at the antique store

to add to the brilliant cherry red

of the Czech beads.

I love this color combination.

This one is more earthy and rustic.

I used the word organic

in my Etsy shop.

I don't really like the word organic.

I mean really.

What in heaven's name

is an organic bead?

Makes no sense!

If it makes no sense

it's NOT TRUE!

(Sorry.  I channeled Judge Judy there for a moment)

And really -

that statement isn't exactly right.

Lots of things make no sense

but they are true.

Jumbo shrimp for one. (old joke)

Actual reenactment.

Adult Children

Boneless ribs

Congressional Ethics

my personal favorite:

eschew obsfucation

I think I've strayed off the blogging path...

back to the organic bracelet.

ahem...

But people seem to like that word.

So here's another picture

of my 

organic bracelet.

It has some nice Jasper, a sterling silver bead, a pottery bead,

and I'm not sure what the square bead is but I like it.

The two beads on either side are not really this bright shade of orange.

It kind of reminds me of a hot dog for some reason.

Maybe I'm just hungry.

Hold on.

I'm going to go and grab a Peep.

I'll be right back.

Talk amongst yourselves.

I love this one and I'm not really a

"pink" girl.

I found some cool old french enamel number plates

the last time we were in Chicago.

I added the number 21 to this one.

Plus,

I added some rose quartz, and rhodonite

that Susan brought me back from 

the Tucson Gem Show.

I photographed it on

The Spice House catalogue

under

Pink Himalayan Salt.

This coincidentally was

the name of the bracelet.

I think I'm funny.

Apparently, it was lost on the 

Etsy crowd.

Not one hit

 until I changed the name.

Now it's called

Pink Bracelet No. 21

Judging by the only 3 hits I've gotten

that name isn't too popular either.

I could call it

Kosher Flake

or

Portugese Sea.

Neither of which sounds like a bracelet name.

But, both go with my picture.

Maybe I'll just forget it

and 

call it a day.

Have a great Sunday!
