A Pleasant Surprise




Went to the mailbox today, and much to my surprise, I pulled out a complimentary copy of the Nov/Dec issue of Somerset Studio, with a You've Been Published notice on top. Yep, my French Blue Lady Tussie Mussie is pictured on page 106.....

OMGosh! Look at this necklace! and there's more...


My friend, Liz, has just opened a second etsy shop, GYPSYOLOGY. She fashions the most gorgeous jewelry designs from vintage pieces and parts. I was her first sale. I just had to share this gorgeousness with you. This isn't the necklace I bought, but mine is equally beautiful. I've been buying from her other shop for awhile; GYPSYFEATHER, where she sells the most fabulous vintage embellishment kits that she coordinates by color - per her shop announcement: Specializing in vintage jewelry and jewelry tidbits, findings, found objects, trinkets, lace and trims, buttons and beads ...
I have a huge stash of these beauties that I love to use in my artwork. I admit I have been selfish and keeping her lovely offerings to myself, not wanting anyone else to discover her...am I not just awful?!!!! Anyway, I am so glad I met Liz via her etsy, she is the SWEETEST gal. Hop on over and see her offerings.
