Work In Progress Wednesday, just a quick one!

Hey all! Still crazy busy trying to build up my inventory for upcoming events. These are some of the pendants and earrings I'm working on today...

Hopefully things will settle down a bit soon and I'll have much more time to post regularly again, I miss my blog!

Happy Earth Day! Making art with my kids...

Hi all! We've been busy here at Chez Beaulieu- mostly cranking out jewelry and windows for an upcoming show- but more about that at a later time.

I thought it appropriate this Earth Day to share a quick couple of photos of the art piece my 6 year old made for his "recycling invention" project for kindergarten.

He made a mini sea glass window. Not really an "invention" per se but definitely recycled and it is useful- it makes any window look pretty, especially on a dreary day like today!

It was his idea to make the turtle and he picked and placed almost every piece of glass, I just helped him plan out the basic shape of his turtle and then I dropped some of the teensie pieces in to fill in gaps at the end.

He's his mama's boy I think.

He's so darn proud and so am I!

More things I'm working on today...

I wish I had the time to blog about life in general but I've been so busy with work that this is the best I can offer for now (not that I'm complaining mind you, I am SO happy to have orders coming in!)

I promise I do have some lovely pyrex to show off, craft stuff I'm making for my house and even a few new recipes to share, but for now I have to get back to work and try to finish these pendants so I can move on to the next batch!

FYI the shell and sea glass pendants at the top are all sold, the bracelet focals in the middle are sold/mine (mine is the round one, I'm having Mickey at Nicholas Landon Jewelry make me a leather and pearl bracelet for it, yay!)

The bottom section of pendants will all be going over to Etsy once they're set and polished. Happy Monday, everyone!
