Quickie!

I boxed up the order for Wild Birds Unlimited...everything looks awesome.  It's funny, but the more I do this, the more pride I take in how professional I'm getting.  Mylar bags, packaging, lables...I'm like a real businessperson here.  They're going to love this stuff.

I was contacted by Rumors again (the gallery in New Orleans)...new order coming from them soon.  The only thing they know for sure that they're going to want is wolf masks...everything else is up in the air.  So, I'm making a handfull of wolf masks in preparation, & hoping they don't wait 'til the last minute with the order, 'cause Halloween is almost upon us.  Busy busy!

Speaking of work...I got a GREAT idea & I have to thank

golden_meliades for giving it to me indirectly.  I'm making koi barrettes.  One long koi, viewed from above, BUT!  Dangling from the koi, two strands of pearl "bubbles", that'll hang down in the hair.  I'm using real pearls & crimp beads, so the pearls are separated on the strand.  The wire will disappear in the hair & it'll just look like "bubbles", floating in your hair, leading to the koi.  Isn't that the coolest idea?  I'm working on four of them right now.

My new kimono blouse from Anthropologie came yesterday...it is SO cute!   It is adorable with my new jeans.  Greg is taking me out to dinner tonight, but I don't want to wear it to dinner (it's real silk & the thought of spilling Italian food on it gives me a rash), so I'll save it for a movie or something.  I'll wear my new skirt from San Francisco instead...I can pair it with an easily-washable cotton tank top.  Plus, it looks good with my now-infamous turquoise necklace.  It seems that EVERYONE that Greg works with saw me on the news last week (the whole serial killer thing), & all anyone could say was they LOVED the necklace I was wearing.  Seriously!  My mom said everyone she works with noticed it too.  It was just a simple turquoise necklace Greg bought for me from a street vendor in SF...but it looks great on me.

So now I have to wear that necklace, it seems, because we're going to dinner with people Greg works with & they all requested the "serial killer necklace".   Honestly people.  I'm not making this stuff up.

Back to work!  :-)
