Yee Haw!!

Ok, so now I have this fancy smancy new banner that my hubby's buddy Jason did especially for me. So what do you think? I think its pretty fantastic! So that is yet another hurdle to getting my little business up and running. Now if I could only get some sales on my Etsy.com site. That would be marvellous (lol). I also managed to get my slide show at www.photobucket.com/dragonsfirechainmaille to show up at the bottom of this blog. Yet another triumph for today. And last but not least I finally finished my new bracelet, take a peek:



I am soooo proud of this one. It is my first shot at this and let me tell you it took me forever. Well not forever but on and off for two days. It sure was a lot of work, but seeing the finished product I will surely make more.

So I think I'm getting the hang of this blog thing. I'm hoping to post more often. I just finished a bunch of new pieces of jewelry so I'm off to get them up on www.dragonsfire.etsy.com. Come back soon and remember to tell your friends all about me!

BUSY BUSY BUSY

Well I'm back from camping and I got a lot done while I was gone. (Sitting at my picnic table in the sunshine). Trouble is, most of it doesn't make it to my web site because the girls at work keep buying it! Good for me, bad for my web site. I did get to play around with some silver and made a byzantine bracelet with a matching pair of earrings and another really nice pair of silver earrings. I'm hoping to have pictures up on here and my web site soon.

I have to say a huge thank you to the people I have met so far in the Chainmaillers Guild (see my links on the right hand side of this page). I have received encouraging posts from many people. It means a great deal to me to hear nice things when getting the web site up and running has been a little slow going. Please take the time to visit their blog and web site!!

Well that's it for me for now, I have to get the boys lunch's ready for school tomorrow.

Thanks for reading! I'll talk to you again soon!!

SUNDAY AUGUST 24, 20008

Ok, so this is my first blog ever and I have no clue what I am doing so bare with me!! I have already been sitting here at my computer for two hours trying to get this up and running and looking nice. So for starters here is a little bit about me:

I'm a busy mom (34 years young) of two very active little boys (6 and 10), a wife of 10 years, and I have a full time job.

In my spare time (ya thats funny) at home and when camping, I find it very relaxing to work on my chainmaille. I have taught myself this new form of jewelry making and have only been creating for about a month or so. (Although I have a long history of other jewelry making and crafts, just ask my very patient husband).

So thats it for me for now, I'm off to figure this thing out, thanks for your patience and I'll be talking to you soon!

Feel free to check out my web site at www.dragonsfire.etsy.com.
