about me

Practically imperfect in every way. Start with a lot of silliness. Mix in some insecurities and a handful of awkwardness. Add a pound of naivety, innocence, and child-like wonderings. Blend well. Half-bake and top off with a sprinkle of imagination and dollop of dreams. It’s the recipe for me!

dumbass quote

  • "I think we have come to find out that the Education system, run by Liberal Hippies that really couldn't find any other job that allowed them so much time off, the ability to do drugs, and to spout their rhetoric is alive and well. It is teaching out kids things like 'Abortion is Good,' 'Government is Bad.' We have educators that, for the most part, don't teach to the subject, they teach to their beliefs. It is really sad, and even sadder when you see highly intelligent children buying into it." --Kelli

Darlin’ I Don’t Know Why I Go To Extremes

July 30, 2005

Lately, my jewelry designs seem to be either very simple, or very complex. Yesterday, I made a bracelet as a birthday gift for the girl next door. It was just a simple stretchy bracelet of large, brightly colored Austrian crystals. It’s beautiful, but it took me less thanf 5 minutes to make. Today, I’m working on a crystal and pearl bridal necklace. Yes, another bridal necklace. I don’t know what my deal is with these lately. Like the first bridal necklace, this one is Austrian crystals and freshwater pearls all wire wrapped with fine silver wire. The first one took me almost two hours to make. I expect this one will be near the same.

I need to find a nice middle ground between the simple designs I like for everyday wear, and the complex and challenging designs I really enjoy making. Maybe once I’m finished with this one last bridal necklace…

    I’m always making things harder than they have to be, but I can’t for the life of me think of when I’ve made them easier. At least you have that to balance it out a bit. I could tell you about my plans for this hole in the wall of my bathroom, but that’s a post all unto itself….

It’s the spark of an idea that hits me unexpectedly. It’s the silly wonderings I have after a whirlwind of thoughts. It’s about creativity, inspiration, and imagination. But sometimes, it’s just about eating noodles.
