New toy prompts creativity.

Where have I been?  Not sure how to answer that but am going to do my best to post here often.  Yes that was short and brief. lol

I have a new toy.  We went to hobby lobby and I finally bought a metal press alphabet stamp set.  So,.... you may say.  Whats the big deal most everyone has one these days...... Yes they may but, it has done wonders for me personally. 

I finally feel like creating things again.  and ideas are free flowing in my brain .  Its also done wonders for me in wanting to get back to my etsy store that I've been neglecting since starting my new job. 

I started making personalized earrings for my friends and they loved it so much that I added them to my store.  Check them out here:

Now I'm working on a personalized necklace.  The great thing about this necklace is that its brought me back to my true love, which is wire.  Instead of making this necklace with bought chain.  I'm making my own to make this necklace truly handmade. 

Here's the beginning of the necklace.  Cant wait to show you the end result.  Yes I'm excited and you know why?  All because I bought myself a toy.  So this is what I'm encouraging you to do.  If you are in a creativity slump, try something new related to your craft or totally on the opposite spectrum.  It will do wonders for you.  Like a caffeine jolt.  Try it and then show me what you've tried new.

Can't wait to hear from you.....
