Fall 2009 Brings lots of Excitement with Design and Art Shows

Fall Brings excitement and new energy to my Jewelry designs and my ideas are flowing...from early morning to late evening. I think the mix of accessories for Fall will be light mixed with heavy, open mixed with solids and lots of deeper colors....from metals to magical beads.
I also love the idea of heavy gold scrolls and heavier pearls with dark grays and earthtones. My days as a Designer ladies' retailer put my mind's eye in tune with juxtopositioning light, dark,light,heavy and other opposites to create interest. Look at Fall collections and you will see heavy chains and charms mixed with ribbons and sparkles..... I will be participating in several ART Shows in the DFW Metroplex this Fall...
Currently I will be at the Southwest Airlines Show on Nov. 23 at Love Field and am also scheduled for the Senior Citizen's Show and Sale in October at the Will Rogers Colluseum in Fort Worth...I will post more as I know the schedules.
I was at a Christmas in July show on July 24 and it was great! Lots of sales and compliments....and comments that I am priced too low! I continue to try to produce pieces that are more than "worth what you pay"..........They are downright pretty. Visit my online stores at www.wantzit.etsy.com and www.wantzit2.etsy.com

Jewelry Design...Pleasurable Small Time Snippets

About me: I live in Fort Worth, Texas and it is a great place! We have world class museums, a world class rodeo and stockshow, and music performances with well known artist every night!....Besides that, For Worth, has me!
Did I always design jewelry? No....but I have always been an artist! I had a minor in Art in college, but being of practical mind....I got a major and a Master's Degree in different subject...so for the most part of my adult life, I have been the frustrated artist....A good painter...winning awards, leaving painting supplies out all the time are smelly, and messy, so I vowed and still do vow to do that another time, again, when I have the proper space.

Artist are always creative...and they usually can do a variety of things....not all of them are artsy! What is artsy, is the way the artist's mind works! Never at a loss for ideas and always able to think outside the box! Now that is a very good thing in any field....

So, in the daytime, I have been a Fort Worth REALTOR for many years. Most recently, in the night time, I am a jewelry designer. Those small snippets of time are so great! They clear my mind of the day's details or stresses, and I can see the progress and reap the reward each time I finish a design. My jewelry store is at http://www.wantzit.etsy.com/ and I love working with it and seeing how many people have looked at my designs each day. Most recently, I have had requests for small wholesale orders and that is just great!

In case you are wondering what I do....take a look! First I love working with vintage looks and repurposing objects into current, yet memory pieces.

I also like to work with light and clear colors to create neutral, but eye catching pieces...take a look at these:
