A few new things this Spring


I have been getting things together for Spring and my party.  I started listing everything on Etsy and I'm already exhausted, LOL!  I picked a few things, so you can see what I've been working on.  Above is a crochet brooch that is made from wool and cotton.  It also has a syn.quartz and you all should know I love swarovski crystals.  Yes, I know I'm not in 4th grade anymore, but I just can't help myself=0)





I'm just now starting to make flat note cards using prints of my original Spring watercolors.  I gift wrap everything I sell and now you can get a note card to send with your gift, or just purchase note cards alone.  I think these are a lot of fun, but my favorite is of "El Rey".  I have a feeling I'm going to sell out of those and one little chimichanga is going to be laughing all the way to Legoland to buy another Bionicle, LOL!



This crochet flower is made from cotton, but I did use one of my felted balls for the center.  It also has a syn. quarts in the center.  I just really love the color of that stone.  This is meant to be worn as a brooch and I've been hiding it from my Mama.  Yes, I know her too well and I know that somehow she will make me believe that she will die without completing her outfit with this brooch=0)



The felted belt buckle has made it onto the scene!  I took a really great picture of me wearing this and now I can't find it in my files, BLAH!  If you are curious, PLEASE visit my Facebook Cielo Azul Jewelry page!  It REALLY looks cute on....I promise=0P



I also made a couple of crochet cuffs!  You see, this is my problem......  I was born with VERY large feet and hands.  REALLY!  My knuckles almost hit the ground when I'm walking.  The very long torso did help out with carrying my butter balls and I didn't look too crazy, LOL!  Anyways, I can NEVER just buy a bulky bracelet.  Yes, BOOOOO!  That is so wrong, but it's true.  I always try and I just can't get it to go past my thumb, SO here is my version.  I can just slip this on and I'm gone.  I've gotten lots of looks and smiles while I wear mine, but that could mean anything, LOL!

I still have TONS of pieces to work on before my big party, but I'm working on it.  Slowly, I will get it all together for the big EXTRAVAGANZA.  Thank goodness it's still 3 weeks away, LOL!
