How Sweet It Is.

Work was so much fun last night.  Yep, I said it... FUN. We had a really great team and I enjoyed working with them.  It feels refreshing to actually enjoy my job.  

Lately I have been making some headway with my jewelry business.  I call it a business but it is more or less a hobby that Maury's sister and had decided to turn into trying to make some profit.  She and I started with making breast cancer awareness bracelets to raise money for the 3-day.  We tried to sell them at our garage sales and nothing really came out of it, so we gave them to her granny and she ended up selling them to a few of her friends. I was really disappointed so since then I decided to step out of the box and make other types of jewelry.  I taught myself how to make earrings and used more diverse beads for the bracelets. They all turned out super cute!  I was really reluctant to take all of my stuff up to work.  I hate getting hit up to buy all the middle school cookie dough stuff when I'm at work so I thought the same probably goes for jewelry.  Boy was I wrong.  My stuff turned out to be a big hit! I've sold almost all of my stuff and currently have 6 orders for new stuff.  The girls loved it!  My co-worker Ruth asked me to bring all my stuff up to a very popular high school in town to sell.  She is the football coaches wife and she said all the other wives always ask her where she gets her jewelry.  I am really excited!  

My mom and maury's sister and I are hoping to get to go to the biggest craft show this side of the Mississippi, this weekend.  I really want to get a booth at these upcoming shows.  Who knows, maybe my hobby will become more than a hobby!

Here are a few pics of my stuff :)
