Display at Saffron

This week, I brought over a load of new goodies for the Saffron store - a bundle of sparkly bangles and cuff bracelets.

I also remembered to bring my camera, to snap a couple of quick pics of my jewelry that's on display there.  Good times!

Hear! Hear!

I got my rejection email from Renegade last night.

But I just got my confirmation for Thread!!!

This will be my very first, official show.

Time to pull it together!

Coming Soon...

Right down the street from where I live, is a fabulous little coffee shop, tucked into a corner of a busy, little laundromat.  Entrepreneur and coffee-cow-girl Maricar, decided to follow her passion and her nose.  She opened up her own business and procured rights to feature a very popular San Francisco coffee - Blue Bottle.

I'm lucky to get to join her and a small group of talented artists, to bring together a neighborhood sidewalk event: Spin City Coffee - Sip & Shop Saturday.  There will be an eclectic mix of art, eco-friendly household goodies and of course, my jewelry!  Maricar will also be holding a drip bar - a sampling of various Blue Bottle coffees for people to try.  Line wine tasting- but of the caffeinated varietal!

Hope those of you who are in the area will get a chance to come check it out!  It will be on Saturday, October 30th, at the corner of Sanchez Street and 26th Street, in the Noe Valley neighborhood.

Loot!

A couple of weeks ago, I went to Clay Creation's open house and purchased a few items from artist Linda Fahey.  Here is the fabulous loot!

She's been doing a lot of 'shippery' themed work lately, as you can tell in her awesome cups and the platter.

In my kitchen, I have the standard, mass produced stuff for everyday use - the plates and bowls, etc.  But I've decided that I want the COOL stuff and I want to use it when I want to.  It's like your mother reserving the fine china set for special occasions...  Every time I drink out of a cool cup or use a fabulous platter or bowl, it makes me feel special and happy.  So why not?  I will use them like every occasion is a special occasion!

Out Cold

It's been a miserable several days with the flu.  The virus is tenacious and its taken me into week two...
