I work full time in my spare time and create and sell my handmade beaded jewelry the other time. I am married to a wonderful man. We have 2 dogs and no children, just a nephew whos a hand full. I love collecting anything different and unique and can probably write a story about how Ive acquired each and every collectible I own. I feel that I have a free heart and will do just about anything for my close circle of friends. I also love bebopping on all of the different networks.
I currently run 5 at the moment.

Re: Jewelry Shelf

I wished that I could try fitting everything on only 4 shelves. Try, 2 - 9ft tall 8 shelf book stands; not to mention the attic stairwell that my hubby painted and added shelves in for my (beading) stuff; and then there's the 3 large tool drawers I purchased from the hardware store (just for some of the beads). I could really go on and on. But I have to ensure that my husband doesn't see your post, or he'll make me get rid of much of my stuff. Good Job though, truly and inspiration.

Re: Resin and Silver-Plated Rings and Pewter Pendants

This project video is step-by-step enough that I can feel comfortable trying it. I think that I will this weekend.

Re: How to Organize Your Brooches and Pins

This is a great idea. I've created something like this, only I used a small lamp shade (my dad got 100's of them from an auction in Florida) to hold pins that I sell at a Antiques Mall. Check out my "COLLECTIVE ORGANIZING" slide show of them at [http://beadon.ning.com/photo/album/show?id=2206415:Album:1730]
