About Me

My photo
This blog started out as a way for me to display and sell my handmade jewelry creations. I have set up shop on Etsy.com, where my shop name is "Dreamin of Beadin". The link to my Etsy store is located on the right hand side of this page. Please check me out!! If jewelry's not your thing, then check out the site anyway ~ there are plenty of talented artists selling lots of cool things there. For your reading pleasure, this blog will serve as a sneak peek into what's going on "behind the scenes" in my world. I love to cook, so there will be plenty of recipes, as well as product reviews and the occasional product giveaway (woo hoo!) I also love to take pictures of anything and everything, and I just bought a new camera, so there will be plenty of photos. And I like wine too, so things could get pretty interesting . . . Thank you for your support of me, Etsy and "all things handmade" :)

Less of Me

  • In the coming weeks and months, you’ll probably be seeing less of me ~ on the blogosphere, anyway. I can almost hear the screams of protest now ~ ha ha. Don’t get yourselves in too big of a tizzy. Here is where I’ll be and what I’ll be up to:
  • I’m turning a spare bedroom in my house into a functional craft room for me (yay!). This will give me an actual space to create in, and better storage for my materials. No more kitchen table piled to the ceiling with manila envelopes and baggies filled with beads and findings. I can't wait for that.
  • I am working on opening a second Etsy shop, for vintage items and de-stashing of craft materials that I no longer have a use for. Yep, I’m getting organized.
  • I’m planning to learn some new techniques. The same ol’, same ol’ gets . . . old. I’m ready to try my hand at something new. I’ve always wanted to learn how to knit. Last Winter I started to teach myself pearl knotting but never perfected it. So, I’d like to pick that back up again. I’ve been known to dream big, but we’ll see how it goes.

Aside from all of that, I have a full time job, volunteer work, a house that needs occasional cleaning, a husband, family, friends and a bunch of people in my life who would like to see me now and then. It's always a balancing act, which is something we're all pretty familiar with. So . . . I’ll be around, just not a bunch. My Etsy shop will stay open, and I’ll be adding new items, although probably not as frequently. I’ll still post an occasional recipe when I have one that’s worth sharing. In the event that I think of something worthwhile to blog about, I might even do it. Until then, try not to miss me too much ;)

We will miss you, Stacy! Your projects sound exciting (especially the craft room - I and poor Husband can relate to the kitchen table experience you described). You will have to post pictures of the finished product. :) I am also curious to see what you put up in your new Etsy shop!

I know the feeling Stacy!

How exciting that you are going to have your own space! It will be so uplifting for you and so nice that you don't have to put things away if you don't want to. Good for you for doing what makes you happy. Being organized will definitely make you happy too!
