A Day Off!

I'll spend some time working on paperwork but my daughter and I are going for manicures today. I also hope to take some better pictures of some of my items. I have a couple of things to relist, but the photos I have are awful.

Today's featured shop is Cats Paw Artifacts. With a name like that, how could I resist? From her profile she writes, "Judy Richards resides in Portland, Oregon where it rains this time of year. A well kept secret is that it doesn't rain all year around.Judy is a member of the Portland Bead Society, the ORBS (Oregon Regional Beadmakers Society) and the ISGB (International Society of Glass Beadmakers).Judy makes lampwork beads and designs jewelry - unique and hopefully artful jewelry. She is always striving for new ideas, new shapes in glass. Judy is inspired by nature (flowers, birds) depicted in glass. She loves abstract lampwork most of all with layers of glass and complexity. She is always striving to that goal." To read the rest you will need to visit her shop http://tinyurl.com/3d7zcu . While there check out her gorgeous lampwork beads. You can see my favorite bead http://tinyurl.com/396e8b and all of her other work. Check out her blog http://www.catldy99.wordpress.com/ and you will be amazed.
