I finished my cha cha bracelet and will list it tomorrow, online. Also gathered beads and end caps for the next bracelet, it will be elegant.

Half way there

I am half way on my cha cha bracelet. I pick it up every so often.  Wish I could take it with me tomorrow to my husbands hour doctor appointment.  But when I snip the wire , pieces go flying. Wouldn't want to "attack" the people in the waiting room. You see, that is a side affect with cha cha bracelets. The corner in my office is full of little metal pieces. But they are hidden behind the work table , heater,printer, etc. ( Don't tell)
Well I started my cha cha bracelet.  Working with very pretty blues. Here is the begining.  Long way to go.
Set up another online shop.  Hope it does well. Went to an antique shop and a lady was getting out of the beading business, sad for her good for me.  Half price.!! Now I can do my favorite thing.....create jewelry.  I am starting a cha cha bracelet in shades of blue.  Can't wait to watch it develope. I will share as I go....................Kat

Hobby to a small business

I started my shop hoping to make it into a small business. Any advice is greatly appreciated. I take my jewelry to craft fairs and am trying to start home jewelry parties. I had one so far and it was successful.  Honest opinions about my jewelry would be appreciated. These are some necklaces that I created.
