Getting ready for busy season!

It is that time of year, we are busy every weekend, kids, us, football, etc..  It is also always my busiest time of the year for jewelry.  I feel as if I am moving forward, my website is now re-done, but there is always so much to do.

One thing I have found that really helps me stay organized is my planner.  I used to use paper planners, then I went totally electronic, which worked for the routine, daily things but not the long term plans.  I had a planner called Planner Pads recommended to me, and I have never looked back.  It has a great flow that can incorporate many areas of your life, and flows it all to the daily things, in an hourglass format.  I use it to plan, set appointments, take notes, it is my all in one brain!  If there is one drawback that I can find, I really would like a more colorful, fun pattern and they are very basic!  You can find them here, www.plannerpads.com .

Hope you are all enjoying the fall as much as I am, it is so beautiful!  Here is a sneak peak of my latest creation, learning how to set stones and make hinges!

I also recently had some pictures taken, and can I say how much I hate to have pictures taken, here is one from the studio!

with that, I am off to start the day!
