Iowa Craft:39 MacNider Museum Exhibit Update

Iowa Craft:39 Exhibit

This weekend the Iowa Craft:39 MacNider Museum Exhibit opened in Mason City. In addition to the opening of the Exhibit an awards ceramony was held. I must admit I didn't think I'd place although I was hopefully. They announced honorable mention and it wasn't my name. At that point I started telling myself it's a honor to be included and this is great exposure. Then they read the best in jewelry category winner and it was me!! I just thought hey they said my name. I was shocked that my simpler piece won even though I myself am drawn to simple pieces.

My favorite man was my date as well as my parents.

The lovely judge and me at my display.

Great Winter Trend Colors

As a jewelry designer I am realizing that it extremely important to know what new color trends are coming. Sometimes I baulk at the colors and I'm right and then sometimes I have to kick myself. But at last Winter 2009 colors are right up my

personal color love alley. I love love love rich earthy tones.

Drum roll please:

Leave MonkeyBuns a comment letting us know which color or piece you love the most and why. You could win a $10.00 Gift Certificate to MonkeyBuns!!! Drawing will be on Nov. 30th!!! Let your friends know.

Monday what else is there to say

Good morning blog followers!

It is again Monday :( the world's longest day. I work at my "real" job six days a week now so it seems like Sundays burn away so quickly. I have been working hard at wire wrapping on Sundays. I've seen my ups and downs and a few bruises along the way.

Two out of the four pieces I submitted to the Iowa Craft Exhibit were accepted.

The will be exhibited at MacNider Museum from November 19th to February 20th.
