Random Monday-Jewelry making supplies

On Saturday I went to the International Gem and Jewelry Show that was held in Novi, a suburb of Detroit. I only took $100.00 in cash so once my money was gone I left the show, otherwise I could of gotten into a lot of trouble. The item of the week was made from the gemstones and sterling silver chain that I bought at the gem show.

My metals stamps and stamping blanks came in last week too. I spent yesterday afternoon and this morning practicing with my stamps. Below is a bracelet that i made using my metal stamps and Swarovski pearls (my favorite beads to work with). TD are my initials, C M are the initials of my pups (Chico and Maxwell) and the Sagittarius sign. I plan on ordering additional Zodiac signs but so far I only have Sagittarius stamp. Below is a picture of the bracelet I made.

My Weekend

My husband and I went to his college roommate's wedding. It was a beautiful wedding on the Detroit Riverfront overlooking the Detroit River with Canada as the backdrop. It was absolutely beautiful. I wish I took more pictures.

They had the best wedding favors that I have seen. They had a photo booth from http://www.mobileexposures.com/, where the guests could take their pictures. One copy would go the the guests and the other goes into a scrapbook for the bride and groom. To the left is the picture my hubby and I took.



The dress I wore was a periwinkle blue dress from J.Crew see pic below. The dress is lighter color blue than in this picture.












And the necklace I wore was a Fabulous Chic Design that I made the morning of the wedding to match the necklace.
See pictures below:

Random Monday-Labor Day Weekand



I had such a great weekend! On Saturday my Hubby and I went to a University of Michigan game. Although, I am a Buckeye fan, it was so much fun to go to a Big Ten game. We had great seats, right on the 50 yard line. One of the vendors from work gave me two tickets.

On Sunday, we drove to Cleveland. My sister and mom threw us a barbecue to celebrate our recent nuptials. The food was great and the cake was delicious. We had a great time hanging out with the fam. Above are the pics from the barbecue.

This weekend I made several new bracelets. The Green and Pink bracelets are currently for sale at my Artfire Shop. The blue and gray bracelet will be posted on Artfire shortly. I also made a pair of earrings and a bracelet to feature for Two Dollar Tuesday. I haven't had a chance to take pics and add it to my Etsy Shop. I will post it tomorrow after work, so check back tomorrow after 6pm.
