She has been at it since 9 am. Most people go to the beach when in SoWal, but Mermy is an earring making fool. :clap_1:

It is nice! They have some pretty pieces and will be getting more. She is going to start selling one of my favorite jewelers Doris Panos. Beautiful pieces of jewelry!

The name of it is "Magpie's" Love it! Mermy and I both are Magpie's!

Jdarg just told me you are hanging with the smelly hippies at Mossy Head today. Otherwise you'd have been invited. :lol:

Seriously though, I couldn't stop! I bought a package of sterling pins and they're so much easier to bend than the cheapie wires I'd previously bought that I kept bending and bending and bending. Plus jdarg and I had the Sundance jewelry catalogue and we were sneering at what they were charging $30+ for...hey I can duplicate that one better....and off I went, one-upping Robert Redford all morning long making Mermy earrings ad nauseum. The Dargs had to drag me to the beach this afternoon. Yes I'm nuts. :eek:

BB: I wanna go check it out. you must see some of my friend's necklaces that I just found out are being sold there - pearls and other precious stones/glass/gems on silk ribbon - they are so gorgeous - simple yet truly elegant - I'm lucky enough to own one. let's go!

Honey, you live at the beach. Just take a dip in the salt water once a week and you'll be good to go.

I think your jewelry looks as good as the Devon Leigh pieces in the Neiman's catalog that came yesterday. Clear crystal quartz and natural pearl beads on sterling. Bracelet $275, necklace $490, earrings $200.

We figured that we made about $500+ worth of earrings yesterday morning (based on similar earrings in Sundance). Merman was muttering under his breath that maybe now Mermaid can start bringing in some dough!:floor:

And now I have $500+ worth of earrings to organize. Not to mention that the bead bug bit me BAD - so this week it is off in search of all things necessary to make jewelry. I loved putting the diffrent beads together, then rearranging them. It is a good activity for a scribbled person like me.:blink:

Hey Miss Kitty- I already have something in mind for you....:D
