A short video featuring some of the works created by the artists of Love My Art Jewelry, www.lovemyartjewelry.com.  A great group of extremely talented women!!

In light of Etsy's decision to allow mass produced products on the site, a site originally created to support hand made art and independent artists, I have suspended my shop until further notice. In the meantime, I will have new work available for purchase directly through my stand-alone website, http://www.beadkeepers.com. Visit me here and on Facebook, and please, SUPPORT THE HANDMADE COMMUNITY AND INDEPENDENT ARTISTS! Thanks....

I made this video to explain why I need your vote to win the Martha Stewart American Made contest.  I really want to support the arts community in South Florida, and this contest will help me do that.  I need your votes to win, so please watch, and consider voting for me.  THANKS!

I Need Your Vote for American Made!!!

Hello Tumblr World!

I have a big, fat favor to ask of you all.  I am in the running for Martha Stewart's American Made contest in the crafts division.  You can see my page here.  This is a crazy long-shot, but I would be so JAZZED if I won.  You see, if I do, by some miracle, win, I plan to spread the love locally by splitting the cash winnings with a handful of other local artists who really need the support.  So, if you vote for me you are really voting for the arts community! 

All you have to do is visit the link, register, and vote away.  You can vote up to six times at a shot!  EVERY DAY till Sept 13!  I'd be ever grateful, and feel free to share this AROUND THE WORLD.

Thanks, you guys ROCK.
