BeadNestDesigns: December 2009

Thank you for visiting my blog! My name is Robin & I've been creating "wearable art" since 2003. If you're looking for handcrafted jewelry with a unique and affordable twist, I specialize in pieces that have a variety of gemstones, American-made handcrafted lampwork glass, Swarovski crystal and hand-forged/wire-wrapped metals. I use only quality components so my jewelry can become a cherished treasure for you or someone special!

If you see something here you like but prefer a different color or have your own vision of piece of jewelry - let me know - I love doing custom pieces.

Thanks and have a great day! :D

2009 Comes To A Close

I haven't had much time in the last half of 2009 to blog :( Here's a quick run down...

1 year cancer-free
Half way through my graduate coursework
New boss, new rules and things are looking up
New little rescue dog who wants to play with the cats but they aren't so sure about him

I'm finding little time for Etsy, but am still trying to keep things afloat. I made a new pair of earrings for the first time in ages so I'll show them off here! :)

Hopefully blogging will be more frequent in 2010! Happy New Year everyone!!

GYMNASTICS! GYMNASTICS! GYMNASTICS!

Gymnastics rules in our house! My daughter is a competitive gymnast and we travel all over the State for her to compete. We also love the University of Georgia Gym Dogs and never miss a home meet. On March 29, 2008 the Gym Dogs won their 16th SEC Championship and it was every bit as exciting as we could hope!! In April '08, UGA won their 4th consecutive National Championship at home in Athens GA!!

In 2009 - the theme was "All In For 10" and the GymDogs successfully captured their record setting 10th overall and 5th consecutive national championship!

As the 2010 GymDog season begins, Jay Clark takes the helm as the new coach for the UGA Gymnastics program. We're looking forward to an exciting season!

Goooo Dawgs!
