I'm getting very excited about my upcoming trip this week to the Bead & Button Show in Milwaukee, WI. I can't wait for two workshops that I signed up for--a resin class with Susan Lenart Kazmer (Friday) and a cool wire bracelet class with Lisa Nivan Kelly. (Saturday). I'll also get to shoot the breeze a bit with Beverly Gilbert and Robert Dancik and I'm really looking forward to meeting Carter in person. Is anyone else out there going?

Cold Hands, Warm Heart
It was a bit icy here in the Ohio Valley over the weekend, so in addition to a few other crafty things, I was inspired by this old adage to create something. I printed a photo of my frosty yard, onto shrink plastic, and added text in Photoshop. The heart is made from vinyl that I hand-stitched and stuffed with ribbon. There are also many loose, tiny hearts made from shrink plastic, too.

Hi Tonia,
jwinlaI love your jewelry! Beautiful and original. Looking through your photos gives me inspiration and some day I may get back to making jewelry.
