Share your thoughts...


Lynn Davis has a contest today and tomorrow on her lovely, lovely blog. I read her blog but am guilty (like others) of not posting comments and she's really trying to draw us silent readers out of the woodwork. Or the internet, as it were!

So, go read and post something pithy and maybe you'll win a beautiful piece of her jewelry. I posted today, even though the contest is tomorrow as I will be busy with the Designers Market tomorrow...Oh, and the article Lynn wrote on riveting and etching for Belle Armoire IS really great. Check it out. We have copies for sale at the stores.

This is one of Lynn's pendants...she sells on etsy, too.

Gifty Links


Need to make some Mother's Day gifts or something sweet for a friend? I like both of these ideas as they use things you have on hand and are useful:

Candie Cooper makes ribbon bookmarks
with beads and buttons. Clean out the scrap drawer and make something super cute!

Make bowls from old magazines with this great how-to. I'd seal mine with Diamond Glaze so it would last a bit longer...thanks to World Of Mod Podge for this link!
