Art Every Day Month 2018 (AEDM2018) and NaNoWriMo 2018 – Day 24

Art Every Day Month 2018 (AEDM)

Today I made myself a new pair of earrings!  I haven’t made any jewelry for me in years.  Really!  years!  So while I was looking for things to make holiday presents with, I found this great pair of beads and made myself something nice.

I also made a bracelet to go with the earrings I made and the necklace I designed for yesterday’s offering.

I am quickly remembering how much I enjoy making jewelry. The problem is I have so much of it from when I was selling.  I suppose I could tear it all apart.  What I make today would be different because I’m different.  Might be fun.  I have a rack of necklaces that are there for the remaking.  I’ll need more supplies though – the findings (jump rings, crimps, etc).

I also need to get it all organized.  It’s sort of organized for having just throw it up when we moved.  But I discovered today that I have a lot of beads that I didn’t remember having.  Getting them organized it conducive to getting them into a piece.  Maybe I’ll start selling again.

NaNoWriMo 2018

Words today (s0 far) 3,408. Total words:  48,259.  I think I can write through 50K this evening.  The problem is, I’m at the climax and I don’t know what is supposed to happen!  The characters aren’t cooperating. But I can get through 50K without them if I have to.

  • Leah and I have thought of taking some jewelry apart, too. Just because our tastes have changed over the last…must be around eight years now. I think it’s the sentimental value keeps us from doing it. LOL!

    These are looking so pretty. Glad you are so close to your 50K!! 🙂

  • Thanks, everyone, for stopping by! I appreciate the visit!

    Oh. NaNoWriMo. I went up to 43,024 then I ripped out an entire section now I’m back to 40,003. An endless loop of not knowing how to tell my readers who the killer is!

  • Looking great Tammy.
