New workspace!

Yea! I went to Ikea today I and bought a workspace for myself. I've been using a tiny round table for homework and making jewelry. While it is a beautiful antique table, it hasn't been working out. Sometimes I use the kitchen table, but then it becomes a messy catch-all. Instead of buying a desk, I went to the scratch-and-dent section and bought something that looks like it was supposed to be a desk or maybe the side of a shelving unit. It's finished white and it is 29.5X49 inches. I don't know. All I know is it fits nicely over top the little round table.

I wasn't too bad in Ikea. I could easily spend more than 4 people earn in one year there. I bought the desktop, 3 little stuffed toys for Cinque and Cheetara, a candle and a bath mat. Oh and a mat to work with sculpey and not ruin the new desk AND a tea leaf thingy. Well, done. Go me!

Nap time is over

I'm hoping there wasn't a huge disappointed tone in my last post. I was and still am very disappointed, but I definitely don't want to pull anyone else's mood down with me. *thinking happy thoughts*

Since nothing sold today, everything's is still in stock in both the Storenvy and Etsy shops. I do have a few new pieces to take pictures of and post, but I'll do that when I'm feeling better. I'm still bummed out. Heck, everything is still in the boot of my car!

I have a bunch of homework to do this week so I don't see myself making anything new for a few days.

*sigh* dinner?

Round 1: Flea market 1, Jenny 0

Last night I had everything all packed up and ready to go out the door this morning, see?



After I got everything set up this morning I finished a few earrings I had already started and waited for the market to open to the public.





As you can tell from the score above, I didn't score. Lots of people looked and my work received a lot of compliments. I'll try again on a Saturday in a few weeks and see how it goes.

Don't forget to stop my my facebook page for a special discount at my Storenvy shop, hellosundae.storenvy.com

Tumblr...

I opened a tumblr account today. Don't expect me to use it though! It is so confusing and I can't figure anything out! If you want to find me, click here. Don't laugh.

big plans for sunday...

Alright, then! I'm headed to the flea market sooner than I thought. I'll be at the Wagon Wheel in Pinellas Park on Sunday. I decided to go ahead and rent a booth. Chris will be out of town for an exotic car event that day and I'll be all alone. I'd go along, but I'm not fond of the way the guy giving the event handled things with Chris. Don't get me within spitting distance!

Anyhoo, back to the flea market. I'll have a covered booth because there is a really good chance for rain. I think the next time I will definitely sell outside, weather permitting. The woman I spoke with on the phone said outside booths are where it's at! I just don't want to chance rain. Besides, if it rains where's everyone going to go? Inside. Haha just like Disney World. The best time EVER to get on busy rides is during the parades and when it's raining.

 

White night!

Tonight after class I decided to work with white sculpey first before any other color. Silly me always starts messing around with white sculpey after I've been using colors such as green, black or red. Or any color really. It is so hard sometimes to scrub every scrap of sculpey off of your fingers and hands, so when you start with another color especially white or yellow, you end up with streaks!

Soooo.........I used only white tonight and then a teeensy scrap of light pink. I made 3 white roses (and then threw one away. I made the petals to thin and I broke it on the way out of the oven. Whoops!), 2 white bows and a cute little bunny.

I was going to move onto another light color, but honestly I'm tuckered out. The bunny and the bows are in the oven now and when they come out I'm grabbing a book off the shelf and heading to bed. What book? Hard Times by Charles Dickens.

Hopefully I'll have more ring bases in tomorrow and these new lovelies along with the pearly green roses and bows from last night will go up on Storenvy. I'll also post some pictures here too. 'Night white sculpey!

Sculpey snakes!

Or are they?...



hahaha No this is the little square of glass I use when I'm making lil' baubles when I'm watching t.v. I don't get a lot of t.v. watchin' done though. My eyes are usually on the sculpey. Boo for no Glee tonight!

I'm off to get a little homework done!
