Once in a while, I think it is good to step outside of your comfort zone. Challenge yourself. do something totally different. No, I'm not talking about sky diving, I'd be way too terrified !!
I made earrings. I made wet-felted beads (nothing too new or different there). I bought head-pins (who knew what a head-pin was??), and sterling silver earwires. Then I picked out freshwater pearls. (OK, I knew what they were). Then I put them together. My sister in law was in town this past weekend, and she makes jewelry, so she sort of showed me how. Then had the audacity to leave it up to me! So I did it.
They are not perfect - the beads are not identical, nor are they perfectly round. The pearls are also not identical.
And THEN I had the hutzpah (is that how you spell it? Have to ask my mother in law) to LIST them in my shop. Right there with the stuffed animals.
GASP!

Well i think you did a great job! You Go girl! I too believe it is great to break away and try new things! The problem with that is, sometimes you have so many projects just begging to be attended to that you don't even know where to begin! :)
