I do post regularly to Facebook, but have been neglecting my blog! I am getting ready for the Walpole "Meet the Makers" show Thanksgiving weekend, Saturday and Sunday. The Walpole Artisans shop will be decorated for Christmas and about 10 of us will be setting up at Chris Sherwin's studio at 33 Bridge Street in Bellows Falls. We will be giving out grab bags to the first 25 visitors each day, serving yummy treats, playing festive holiday music and of course showing you what we have each created. Each artist will be doing demonstrations of their crafts as well. Hope you will join us. </i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Here is a photo of some handpainted Christmas ornaments which will be at the shop, and also at the Bellows Falls venue. Also pictured are some of my latest pieces.</i></span><br />

<i style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif; text-align: start;">These are just photos that I snapped at my workspace. This is what I love about working with polymer clay.

Even the scraps had some interesting designs and color combinations. Now, I have to get busy and make some jewelry!</i></div>

It's on frames with interesting designs, leaves, fabric, pottery, anything that has a texture of some sort. There are yellow blobs of curing putty everywhere I look! In fact, if you visit my studio, you probably should keep your distance, or something on you may look like a good texture project, and you will get blobbed. Not really, well maybe...</i></span><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i><br /></i></span>
<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>Worked on earrings today. It's a great project to experiment with lots of texture and color. Each piece is handpainted individually. It takes a bit of time, but soooo much fun. These are all going to the Walpole Artisans Coop tomorrow, but I am planning to make more this weekend to put on Etsy.</i></span><br />

<span style="font-family: Verdana, sans-serif;"><i>My supplies finally arrived Thursday night. I have been practically stalking the Fed Ex truck. I worked today to finish some of the pieces I did at class and made some earrings as well. The earrings and pendants are made using commercial texture stamps, and my own handmade stamps. (I learned how to do this at my retreat with Christine Damm!) I just love the technique, and enjoy handpainting each piece. The last photo shows the back of two pendants. I like to make the backs look nice too. Not quite sure how I am going to put the necklaces together yet. I will tackle that tomorrow.</i></span></div>

<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><br /></span></em>
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;">I had gone to visit my family the weekend before, and am posting a couple photos of the kids as well.</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><br /></span></em>
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Shortly after getting home, I came down with bronchitis, and haven't posted, done any work, or added anything to Etsy--grandma's ought to have built in immunities--we have put in our time!!!</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;"><br /></span></em>
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;">Spent some time this afternoon with the furry children--they are just so cute, all 11 of them!!!</span></em><br />

There has been a good response to my Etsy shop, and I have been working on some new items. We had a challenge at the Walpole Coop to create "Vineyard Theme" pieces. I did the pictured necklaces in "grapey" colors, but have some other ideas in the works. Photography was a challenge this week with all the clouds...</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;"></span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Verdana;">I have signed up to participate at "Art on the Farm" with Christine Damm in May. I can hardly wait. Three whole days of learning and playing with clay on a beautiful farm in Vermont. Check her out at <a href="http://www.storiestheytell.blogspot.com/">www.storiestheytell.blogspot.com</a>. She is a very talented artist, and a nice person as well.</span></em><br />
<em><br />
<span style="font-family: Verdana;">Last, but not least, have to share a photo of some gorgeous Yorkie puppies that belong to a friend. They have just opened their eyes, and look ready to get into mischief!<br />

It took me a while, but I really learned a lot in the process. I hope that you will visit both sites, and feel free to offer suggestions or comments (be gentle!). I am new at this, and still have a lot to learn.</span></em><br />

I am muddling through, however, and hope to have my shop up shortly. Facebook is next on the agenda! I'm sure some of you can relate!</span></em><br />

Just catching my breath after the fall shows, all the holidays and visiting with family and friends. This new year brings a lot of changes. I am starting a new job, and will also be devoting much more time to jewelry making as well. I will be updating this blog, setting up a Facebook page and doing more shows this year.</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial;">My first resolution was to reorganize my studio, and make it more work friendly. It turned out to be a much bigger job than I thought. I think I am just about finished, and I am really anxious to to get to work. I am planning to participate in a polymer clay retreat with a well known artist in May. I can hardly wait...more about that later.</span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial;"></span></em><br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Here are a couple of new items. I just finished a photography tutorial, which has helped a lot. I still have some work to do, but I am pleased with the results so far.</span></em><br />

I have met so many interesting new people.</span></em><br />
<em><br />
<span style="font-family: Arial;">I will be doing the Keene Art Tour this coming weekend. Check out the website: www. KeeneArtTour.com for more Information. I will be located in Terri Lipman's studio along with Kyle Stuckey, at 103 School Street. We had so much fun last year, and I am really looking forward to doing it again. If you are reading this, hope to see you there!<br />
<br />
<em><span style="font-family: Arial;">Here are a few new items. I am having a great time making pendants, and then finding interesting beads to accent them. Also a photo of my setup at one of the shows, and of course my "Cat's Meow" inspiration. The neat piece made with an old shutter was crafted by my friend Lynne Mason, and "No, I won't sell it!"</span></em><br />
