R2D2 Kitty and Hurricanes

This past week has been rough!  I live on the east coast and Hurricane Irene took away my electricity since Saturday night! What a way to end my summer! But I finally have power again! ^-^ Finally! So relived! It was so hard not being able to access the internet in my house but I have been able to keep up thankfully!   Lots of shipping out tomorrow! Thanks for everyone's patience in this hard time! I don't say it enough; 

I LOVE my Etsy customers! ♥♥♥♥♥♥

~Summer makes me head spin, too much going on. I am still working on my craft room studio and setting it all up! Photos coming as soon as everything is ready! On top of trying to organize, I have so many orders! (Thank you to everyone who has been shopping)! I am a little behind on shipping out because of my current circumstances so thank you everyone who is understanding! I am very overwhelmed and never seem to have enough time in each day to do everything. I will continue on through however many summer days are left and I will complete my studio! And Ship out everything to all you amazing people on Etsy! xoxo

Rawr! Dino Update! ♥

I made a post a little while ago about how my amazing friends, boyfriend and family inspire me to do well in all my endeavors and travel the path I want in life. I forgot to mention my amazing dogs, My Bruce is 12 & weighs 160 pounds: http://i52.tinypic.com/dqt86.jpg and My Chandler is 4 and weighs 90 pounds. I love them like my brothers<3. Anyway, in That post I also wrote about how Art and creating get me out of bed every morning. And this is true to my heart and true right down to my very core. Creating is not just a hobby, it's my blood, sweat, tears and pride. Without art, I would be a hollow shell. That is why I choose to major in Art because If I majored in anything else, I would be unhappy.

            As for my jewelry, my list of inspiration is growing more and more all the time. I am enrolled in a Jewelry class at my college and I am in love. We are working with all metals, casting is my project right now and I am casting a huge elephant out of Sterling Silver. Soon I will be doing wire work and other metal work and my view of jewelry is so broaded by this class. I will not be completely driven to "Fine" jewelry and metal but It so different from what I make to sell so I am so happy to be experiencing it. It gives me more of a push to keep finding my own unique style and love for alternative jewelry and all types.         
               And so, I am working on more ideas to make cute stuff. Hello Kitty is quite possibly the cutest thing on earth. I have yet to find something cute except my dog Bruce. So I will be making and putting up more Hello Kitty Jewelry very soon. Kawaii and Japenese culture ceases to amaze me and inspire me. I want to make some bracelets to support The Red Cross so sometime this weekend I will be working on that. I am thinking Red bracelets. I will only charge .20 for the listing fee & the rest will go to charity. Other things I am working on is more my little pony, carebear, spongebob, and Pikachu items. As well as cutie pie hairbows because I try to wear one everyday ^-^, That's it for now. Love all of you supporting me if anyone even reads this. Thank you & I love you. ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Keep Calm ♥

Spring! ♥

Winter is one of my favorite seasons but it's been too long this year! Spring is finally here! Springtime makes me so happy because of it's pretty colors, flowers, weather, brightened spirits, gardening, easter, candy and egg hunts, bunnies ^-^, & craft fairs are outdoors again! So many reasons to be happy! I made Easter/Spring inspired bracelets for my love of this beautiful season that is starting ♥ ♥ ♥ ♥

Inspiration

Love and Art; The two reasons I get out of bed in the morning. School this semester is really hard for me and I am working very hard everyday of the week. My etsy orders keep me happy and busy bee so I want to thank everyone who orders from me & I always give the a smile back by decorating thier packages & giving free gifties ^-^. I also want to thank my amazing boyfriend who I miss alot, we don't see eachother alot anymore, only once every week but his phone calls and texts and his love help me so much. Also, My amazing best friends always keep me going & My mom who I love alot. Art & Love. xoxo

For the love of crafting

I want to be able to spread LOVE around the world with my jewelry and clothing and so far with my business, I feel like I have been doing pretty well. I have shipped to so many places in the United States and in the world. Other countries such as The UK, Australia, United arab nations, China, Japan, Mexico, Cuba and so many other places I might be forgetting. I love shipping out my creations because I can decorate the packages with my drawings, my artwork, paint, markers, stickers and make it truly my own. It makes me so happy to be able to express myself. All my packaging is 100% original and different from everytime before so after 100 different orders, I am still making each package fancy and cute and different then the one before ^-^ http://www.coleydinosaur.etsy.com ♥
