Wow we have been having some very hot weather in the last week. It doesn't usually get this hot till January. Here is a new girl, she has no hat, it blew off in the bout of storms we just had and she cannot find it.
I have made a few more pendants and have sorted out the backs of them so once the supplies arrive from treasuresntins etsy shop I can get on and make some more. I have had lots of people commenting the last few days asking where I got them from, such a nice feeling of validation.
It is a funny thing this creative life, I spend so many physical and mental hours thinking and making work, beating myself up and then every now and again I ask myself why? Why do I do this to myself? Why do I need to do this? Will this compulsion ever stop?...
Then someone I don't know makes a nice comment about something I have made and I reply, "I made it" and I fill with pride in myself. I am lucky I have this in me and I am lucky to have found a whole world of people who are lucky, just like me.

I know just what you mean. I wore my new steampunk pendant today and got lots of good feedback. It's spurred me on to make as many as I can!
I just know your jewelry will be popular!
