I had a Jewelry Show in Yazoo City yesterday and here is some of the Jewelry I had on display. I did better than I expected and am really encouraged with the way my jewelry is being accepted.
I feel like my jewelry makin’ skills are actually improvin’ as I continue to make it and that is encouragin’ also.
Right now I don’t have anything concrete scheduled so I guess I’ll just be sellin’ it out of the trunk of my car. I know that sounds a little weird but sometimes when I mention I make jewelry people tell me they would like to see some of it. I keep some with me most of the time so I show them.
I went to a yard sale last weekend, bought some stuff and left there with $10 more than I got there with.
Several people have asked me if I give lessons on jewelry makin’ and I usually tell them that I can’t give lessons because I really don’t know what I am doin’. I just start twistin’ wire, add a bead, button or marble and then see what it looks like. Whether I know what I am doin’ or not ain’t all that important because I’m havin’ the time of my life.

Bo, you’re making some really pretty stuff. Glad you’re having a wonderful time with it. ❤
Thanks. I’m havin’ a great time.

I love that…I can’t teach you because I don’t know what I am doing.
Yazoo City…you making that up?
Nope. Home of Zig Ziglar, Author Willie Morris, and Jerry Clower himself went into show business while workin’ here. We even have a Jerry Clower Festival each year.

I think when the weather cools again, I may go back to making some of my jewelry. I have not made anything this year, but it is relaxing and creative. A wonderful combination.
Red.
I really enjoy makin’ it.
Your jewelry looks quite nice, really, so it’s not that surprising that people like it. Have you ever thought about trying etsy.com?
Jande suggested Etsy too and I am giving it some thought but I don’t have internet at home so it would be hard to manage.
