My Zsazsa...looking for a forever lap

Playing with Fifi on studio deck....Z with Benny's (papillion) tail inthe way ...ready to go home after working in the studio all day.

in the studio and of course on my lap...her favorite place to land ...and there are treats there so she likes to be first.

sunning with Fifi again

"Z" is 4 yrs. old and a blue merle deer chihuahua(one blue eye) and has been fixed after two litters ...she was a most excellent mama and has been raised in style and fun with me ...but she has to share my lap with 6 other dogs and I'm looking for a forever new Lap for her with someone who wants a "companion dog" ...they are at times better than the humans in this area ...she has put on a few Lbs. since surgery but still is only 11 #....loves walks ,car rides and just hanging out in the studio and back yard for most of the day but if she see an opportunity to hop in my lap while I'm working she is first to do it...not a barker but has a lovely on when she alerts me to passer bys on the back steps...totally housebroken and crate trained at nite. you can see her last litter on previous blogs...she will do will with calm energy and not little kids and big noises ...but then again me neither.

New pieces in June 2010...

These are beautiful pearls mixed with square crystals and so really fun vintage glass beads. this grey and lavender

pearls with CZ in pink and purple...I'm working with my friend doing a silver mink collar for this piece....can't wait for the cool weather again to sport this Beauty. This is just so classic color to me ...with that flash of black mixed in and a few vintage carved ivory beads....this is working well with my linens...since I get to wear them first before they are sold to check for hanging and weight and flash.

this is the most recent black and white Saint's necklace...I wire wrapped the hanging cross with crystals and seed pearls...I gave it away 3 weeks later to Joyce Meyer...love her Ministry...and her style.

Getting a job at 64?Dear Lord...what am I thinking?

So with all the spider bites and swine flu it took 3 and a half monthe to get my interview with Nieman Marcus...it was last Tuesday

peaches and cream & a Monkey

So here are a few more of my paint with beads and pearls...I love mixing and matching colors ...I'm good at color. There are 3 long pieces(I usually do 3) it makes a better statement with that number...the mother of pearl piece hanging is of a Monkey on a Peach.

Birthday necklaces

I have been making and selling these beauties for years....multicolour with vintage beads and the crystals always make you sparkle rainbows in the sun...fun,fun,fun.White beads are the main color with the brights added in ...I like them long so you can double or triple them up.....seems like a party to me.
