Check me out!

I was spotlighted on Julie Balzer's blog the other day as part of a long post she did. What fun! Julie has the best blog full of great ideas, her own and other crafters, tons of photos and inspiring ideas, and lots of links to other artists blogs.

Liz Curtin is a student of mine and a lovely artist.

See the necklace she's wearing?  She made it and the charms are...paperclips!  Isn't that cool?  Paperclips!

She bent and curled the bottom part of the paperclip so that the charms would hang from the chain.  I think it's a totally genius idea!  I am on the lookout for some pretty, decorative paperclips to use as charms!

Ohh ... I see that you are wearing that lovely necklace in the picture ... it looks great on the body as well as on the table.

What a nice spotlight ...
