She follows her heart ...


I wanted to share with you a few things .... despite my house starting to fill with boxes and working all hours of the day preparing for this show... there is still lots going on ..... We did find a new house , yeah , so I will be moving the week i get back from Farm Chicks - WOW , Crazy huh ?! So today I thought I would share a little about me .. Lately I have been reading some great posts and another opening article in WWC from Jo Packman about being an artist and what it takes...and the creative highs and lows .... that really hit home with me ... because she is so right the Highs are usually pretty high and fun but the lows can be really low too (like just wanting to stay on the couch all day and not move ) I have been reflecting alot lately too as I am moving , moving on too new things and being taken in a new direction - I get asked all the time how do you become successful or how do you make your dreams into realities... and I really wish i had an answer like do this , that , and this and there - but unfortunately it doesn't work that way .... so my answer is this "she follows her heart" - I let it lead me forward and guide me and hope that it will guide me in the right direction... and yes sometimes there are pitfalls and heartaches but you keep on trying and pushing and Believing .... You have to work through fear of failure and that people aren't going to like it , ( that is always there for me ) - but somehow you put yourself out there - and hope and pray that people like it - and when they do you are grateful, oh so grateful and blessed for your fans and that people enjoy it and love it - yes she is blessed -

but I wouldn't be where I am without my great support system - my husband is always there (I couldn't do it without him ), my mom is always helping me in anyway she can (always my biggest cheerleader and always in the background ) , my sister n law who is now my Creative Assistant and my awesomely talented cousin, Julie Haymaker Thompson is always pushing me creatively !! See this is a love and passion of mine but it takes lots , and lots of hours - time and effort - and its alot of hard work - but the rewards are amazing and the shes I meet are even better - I feel so very grateful for each and everyone of you .... I have been touched by so many people and thank you for that ... I say that if you follow your heart your dreams too can come true... DREAM BIG !! so in honor of being a sponsor over on the incredibly talented Donna Downeys blog - she will be giving away the above necklace - My wish is that you "Live Life Inspired" - the necklace will also be available to purchase in the store , oh and i have added lots of new charms and few more necklaces there too !! So have a happy and safe memorial day weekend !!
until next time

she loves "Little Things"


magazine that is ... a few months ago I was contacted by the Hong Kong magazine to do an interview to be in the magazine ! It is so exciting and although I can't read it , the magazine is so full of inspiration and color !! I am honored to be a part of it .... it was funny though when I started reading the magazine I started at the back which i thought was the front , but the front was really what we see as a back to our magazines , completely opposite ..... anyways Thanks Little Things for picking me to be part of your magazine!!!!
Also I have been reflecting lately on where my jewelry is going- part of the Spring Cleaning /Moving I am doing right now - and I am going to be making alot of changes getting ready for the fall line on my website ( i know what your thinking , but it isn't even summer yet , unfortunately though as a designer you have to stay ahead of the next season or your already behind) -....... so in the meantime I will be coming up with a few more pieces for my website for Spring and as you can see they have a definite spring air to them - like this new piece..... But don't fear each season I will have a new line of items with limited amounts of each , so once there gone there gone - There will also be some limited One Of a Kind pieces and hopefully some One of a Kind Artwork - And then there will be a section for all of the things that will always be there too like charms, some dangle necklaces and rings....... but most items that you see now on the website will be removed at the end of August in time for the new line !! And there will also be the new line of charm necklaces ...... like the one above "be" - and the new line of "little she" charm necklaces too .... I have been gathering the vintage goodies for those too!! so as you can tell my creative juices have still been flowing , crazily getting ready for the summer shows and working away !! and thanks for all your sweet comments on my move and new things ... I will be staying in Arizona just moving closer to Hubby's work, which will be good for us both!!
have a wonderful weekend !!! until next time !

SHE....

has been working on presentation of my products.... Man , you don't realize how long it takes to do this... but I have made a mini catalog and cards for all my jewels to go on - I also have been cleaning out lots and lots and getting ready to downsize ... yes we are moving this summer , but change is always a good thing ... but this means moving my entire studio which will be no easy task ... ... so with that being said I will be very busy in the next few months (moving, Farm Chicks, Blissful Studio ) which will leave little time for blogging or visiting and commenting the way I LOVE too... yes I am Beth and I am addicted to my computer/blogs/etc .. I am sure you get the picture !! So I just want to thank each and everyone of you for always leaving comments for me , you truly brighten my day.. so if I don't respond back right away please believe me when I say how much all your support means to me !!! I will still try to get on and say hi and let you know how things are going .... because I have some wonderful things in the works that I am soo excited about !!
and i will always want to share all the new jewels that I am making !!! like these new rings all beaded and adorned with vintage carved flowers .......
and new beaded bracelets with tiny words of inspiration and vintage flowers, gemstones, and pearls ...
yes , so even though I might not be around as much , I am still here and listening to all of you and visiting you too !!! So thanks to all of you !!! have a wonderful weekend !!
xoxo
