I've decided to set some goals for myself to keep me motivated and creating. At least 5 pairs of earrings a week. And each week those earrings get placed in West End Garage, Cape May. No delay. Unless of course I have a few friends who stop by and grab them before I even tag the pieces. Which has been known to happen here or there. <br><br>Above are a few samples of last weeks creativity. These are now in Cape May waiting for someone to sweep them up to enjoy. After all Valentines is right around the corner and if you don't have a sweet heart to buy them for you, who cares, go ahead and treat yourself, you deserve it.<br><br>. Lots of colours, shapes and sizes to choose from. Necklaces galore. I am particularly excited about my new line I have created for the Spring, so stay tuned my friends.<br><br>Well, time to go. My dog is now on his second sock from the wash. With running up and down the stairs after him, trying to catch him before he shreds the darn things, I have completely lost my train of thought.. Frustrating, but I am now going to try and get some more painting done and then head into studio to create this weeks earrings.<br><br>Ciao for now!!<br><br>Wydinya.</p>Wydinya tag:wydinya.com,2005:Post/117072013-02-01T10:45:03-05:002017-01-15T16:07:50-05:00WAITING!!<br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/751c1d9c72d9849f386a7b758f8026d53fdebf3f/thumb/HOWLITE.WRAPPED.jpg?1380133434" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="125" width="94" /> <br><br>
Just waiting for the insurance guy to show up to re-assess. So in the meantime I thought about checking in.<br><br>
Well, also, I can't wait to share my new work and get it into Cape May. Very exciting for me to get into the studio and clear up part of the work bench and hammer away my frustrations until my creativitely started to flow. I think the banging away helped and three new pieces evolved. Still need to wrap the finishing touches up. Along with the three new necklaces i created this week I also put some great coloured earrings together and those are in the Store in West End Garage, Cape May, Nj. So if you happen to be in the area please feel free to stop in to check them out.<br><br>
Can't get into Cape May, then you can also purchase these items from my<a href="./ear.cfm" target="_new"> online store.</a> I have been working frantically over the past few weeks to get the store back up and running and I thank everyone for their patients while I closed the store due to the move at first and then it remained closed due to Hurricane Sandy. So, thank you, thank you.<br><br>
Well, I think the insurance man is here.<br><br>
Will check in soon to share my new pieces.<br><br>
Have a great day.<br><br>

I understand that time has past since my last post. Naturally many things have occurred since then. Life mainly. The excitement of moving into a new studio and home, breaking out tools that have been in storage for such a long time. Just when I started to get back into the swing of things, getting somewhat organized, getting accustomed to our new home, 4 months later Hurricane Sandy hit the island, the water rose in places that never rose before. Thankfully we were fortunate than most but Sandy has set my production back for the time being and life in general. With a foot of water in the studio, our roof being torn off by the wind, equipment and supplies damaged in the studio and home contents damaged as well. Repairs are still underway. <br><br>
Filling out papers, applications, many phone calls. Adjusters, FEMA, Engineers, Contractors. Quite an experience I must say. Like I said, we are luckier than most. There are still families displaced from their homes. Some people with no homes to come back to. It saddens me to still be hearing stories of people we know who still are unable to move back into their homes. The FEMA workers are working overtime and are overwhelmed. These workers have come from all over the country to help with the disaster relief. They too are away from their families and homes. One of the people we met last week was from Atlanta, GA. It was bitter cold last week, something she was not accustomed to but she still said how beautiful the ocean was. She took a walk on the beach in Cape May, upon returning to her car, she was frozen stiff. Not use to the East coasts cold weather. <br><br>
Heck, last week we were not even use to that bitter cold weather. Last year was so mild and Spring came early. We too were spoiled. The ocean was warmer sooner than usual as well. it was a beautiful year until Sandy hit. Halloween one week before Thanks giving. it was a speical Halloween this year and important for the children to go trick or treating and for as late as Ocean City had their Trick or treating(postponed twice due to debrit on te streets), I was pleasantly surprised to see how many families came out in full costume. We ran out of candy. I felt bad.<br><br>
With the media gone, the beach towns are slowly trying to restore back to what they once knew. Cape May was one of the lucky towns. No damage for the most part. So, West End Garage has been going strong, although I feel that people think Cape May was hit By Sandy and have been staying away. Not the case, events are underway, stores that are normally open during the winter months, are open, restaurants are serving their delicious foods. West End Garage is also operating on the Winter schedule but still open on the weekends and new arrivals coming in weekly.<br><br>
I have found a small corner where I am able to create new pieces until the work is completed in the studio. So be sure to stop into West End Garage to grab some fantastic new earrings, necklaces, bracelets or rings. Great colours. Getting excited for all the Spring colours and styles. I may be a little slow in getting pieces posted on the web, so please be patient, but as soon as I complete the pieces they are stocked and ready in the store. Be sure to like my page on facebook. First previews are usually there, then Twitter. I try to keep up to date with those 2 social networks. So follow me and you will be kept in the loop.<br><br>
Be sure to have a great day and I promise I will not wait another year to post. Each day is getting better and better.<br><br>

Well, I have feverishly been making those special ear adornments that we all adore. Incoorporating color, shapes and texture. Just placed in store this week. So be sure to stop in to <a target="_new" href="http://thewestendgarage.com/">West End Garage</a>, Cape May, Nj. Check out the photo above. I just had to capture the light hitting all the earrings. AAAAHHHH, Sunshine......<br><br>
Plus more items from Craft Fountry, books and jewellery have been added and of course new T-shirts from Caterpillar Fur. Be sure to check back for new items added weekly. <br><br>

My studio has been down for the past month or 2, so I have been scrambling to get it together and with success we are almost there. New earrings will be ready by the end of this week. Soon to be in West End Garage.<br><br>
Very exciting shapes and colours. I know I have had several requests for the Spanish copper earrings and they will soon be hanging in the store soon. This time I will be embellishing with some great coloured beads for a splash of colour. And creating an Amulet for a complete set. <br><br>
I discovered some really cool glass beads that I can't wait to share. Pictures will be following this post soon.<br><br>
Heading to the studio now.<br><br>
Stay tuned.<br><br>
And thank you to all who have been so patient with me.<br><br>
Be well.<br><br>

For some reason green is the theme in this post but there are more colour options to be added at <a target="_new" href="http://thewestendgarage.com/">West End garage</a>, Cape May, NJ. <br>
This first image reminds me of a fish. Hand hammered and then shaped out of a thick piece of copper wire. The green glass briolette was a result of my last trip to New York City. I just love this colour.<br><br>
The seaglass piece was found along the coast of Peurto Rico many years ago and it has been securely wrapped with sterling silver wire and an oval shaped carnelian dangle accents this piece perfectly. <br><br>
And lastly copper wrapped and twisted, this glass dagger like pendant hangs from a copper rolo chain. I love the warmth and healing powers of copper.<br><br>
Will be posting more of the new collection. Very excited with the pieces aquired in New York and truly want to share before placing them in Cape May.<br><br>
Cheers for now.<br><br>

This makes me so happy to see colours returning and more and more flowers emerging from our Mother Earth.<br>
With the Spring flowers there is rain. Welcome rain. Welcome flowers blossoming. And new collections emerging from Wydinya. Fun large hoops. Gorgeous coloured Mother of Pearl necklaces, accented with chandelier glass tear drops. Wydinya took a few fields trips to New York City and found some really amazing findings. Also ate some wonderful food. And found a great place to eat meat pies. Yes meat pies. Some good Australian restaurants in New York City. Go figure. Eight Mile creek in Soho had the fanciest meat pies with a red wine reduction for gravy. Yum. The puff pastry was to die for. And if you are in a rush then there are a few locations to buy a bakers dozen and a variety as well. Tucks has 3 locatiions for meat pies on the go. Check them out if you are in the area.<br><br>
Well, going off on a tangent. I guess i must be getting hungry and could really go for a meat pie right about now. Wish they delivered this far South.<br><br>
Wydinya's new collection will be in West End Garage before the end of the month. Busy month for Wydinya. A few events this month. Will keep you posted.<br><br>
Cheers for now.<br><br>

Come on down to West End Garage, Cape May to check out these 2 great artists.<br><br><span style="color: rgb(0, 128, 128);">RE-THINK. RE-USE. RE-INVENT<br><br></span><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">Jen Roder has worked over the past seven years as a professional carpenter and woodworker. In both her jewllery and working projects, Jen's interest in re-usable objects has been a re-occurring theme. Her current use of bottle caps in jewellery was inspired by her interest of common symbols that have been injected into the mainstream advertising. She found that by removing the symbol from the context of an every day bottle cap, the meaning is then transformed into a personal icon to be celebrated by the individual.</span><br><br><a href="http://jenroder.com/rotorcaps.html" target="_new"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/ff5988c52c854e3541c65fa6e645420ae9931664/medium/ovalfish.images.jpg?1380133433" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="228" width="300" /></a> <a href="http://jenroder.com/rotorcaps.html" target="_new"><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/5ef816485dfd81277a83fd5da0ede6d69b0f4f14/medium/sidewalk-sm.jpg?1380133433" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="225" width="300" /></a><br><br>

Think Spring!! It will be here sooner than you know it. Of course for some, like me, not soon enough. The pretty coloured pendants are frosted acryllic with various images. I love the chandelleir, something a little out of the ordinary. The copper piece is hand cut from sheet metal and then stamped. I then gave it an old world look by adding patina to the finish. All of these pendants hang from leather cords. Will be finishing more so be sure to check back.<br>
Also, if the weather breaks and lets everyone get out of the house, Wydinya will be showing her work at Fringe Hair Salon, this weekend. feb,13th. So if you are in the neighbourhood please be sure to stop by. There will be light bites and wine. It is free to the public. Trish Seimbora, Caterpillar Fur will also be showing her art work and selling her fabulous t-shirts. Will post the flyer up with all the details.<br><br>
signing off for now. <br>
Stay safe, stay warm.<br><br>

Are we ready for yet another snow storm. By the sounds of it, this will be the second biggest snow storm I have experienced in my time here in the States. And it will be my sons second biggest also. <br><br>
Wow. I thought we were in the home stretch. I have my Spring colours in the store. New facelift. New colours. New pieces. I am so excited about the new look and can't wait to see the other stores who did the same this week. Heading over there now before the bulk of the snow hits. Does anyone know what time that is anyway. I keep hearing different times.<br><br>
Here are a few Pictures I took yesterday. Will put in store this weekend.<br><br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/1969fd221ad356d6c18e1f36bbf5d1f8e644c5d0/thumb/CELTIC.jpg?1380133432" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="94" width="125" /> <img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/0f41129e34b190cf597e74a5cb9cc9f5712d30d8/thumb/GARNET.FLOWER.YLLW.JADE.BRIOLETTE.jpg?1380133432" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="125" width="94" /> <img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/debeb8f83485acd8ffae886de5f96a17b5ee2238/thumb/COPPER.ROSE.RED.PEARL.jpg?1380133432" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="125" width="94" /> <img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/b0d0def25ab0ed5d9e585f046948f0361c5ed455/thumb/COPPER.SATELLITE.DISH.jpg?1380133432" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="125" width="106" /> <br><br>

And then again he found me at the Kimmel center in Philadelphia. He liked the ring so much that when he saw me he was happy that he found me and bought yet another one. So, in honour of Shakespeare, yes, Shakespeare, I am calling this line, "Shakespeare". <br><br>
Well, heading over to Cape May now. Stay safe, stay warm. <br><br>
See you when the snow melts.<br><br>

I Will be adding more items weekly so be sure to stop by regularly to see what is new. All stores in West End rotate their products frequently, so there is always something new to check out. Each time I am there adding my my own work I always have to take a gander at everyone elses new displays and items. It is just as exciting for me to go there and fix up my shop as well as placing things on my wish list. I am sure once you take a walk through you will understand what I am going on about. In the meantime try to make a point to stop by if you are in the neighbourhood.<br>
Will check back soon.<br>

IT'S A WINTER WONDERLAND OUT HERE ON THE EAST COAST. THIS WAS TAKEN A FEW HOURS AGO ON THE THE BOARD WALK IN OCEAN CITY, NEW JERSEY. YES, IT EVEN SNOWS AT THE BEACH. CAN YOU BELIEVE IT, THEY EVEN PLOUGH THE BOARDWALK. CRAZY I TELL YOU. <br><br>
WELL, NOT MUCH GETTING MADE TODAY. JUST WATCHING THE SNOW FALL AND TRYING TO AVOID THE PLOUGH TRUCKS ON THE WAY TO GET OUR SUPPLY OF MILK AND TIM TAM'S. JUST IN CASE WE DO GET SNOWED IN. YOU NEVER HAVE TOO MANY TIM TAM'S IN THE CUPBOARD.<br><br>
POWER OUTAGE ON THE ISLAND. FLOODING ON THE STREETS. THOUGHT FOR SURE WE WERE GOING TO HAVE TO HEAD FOR WARMER CLIMES TODAY. OR AT LEAST SOMEWHERE WHERE THE ELECTRIC WAS ON. BUT ALAS, THE ELECTRIC KICKED ON AFTER AN HOUR AND THE HOUSE STARTED HEATING UP AGAIN.<br>
SO TIME TO GET BACK IN THE KITCHEN AND MAKE SOME RIBS, BAKED BEANS AND OUR FAVOURITE, THANKS TO A DEAR FRIEND OF MINE, MISS BETH, CHIPS. SORRY JEAN CLAUDE, I KNOW YOU SHOWED HER THIS RECIPE. BUT SHE HAD IT DOWN. THEY ARE THE BOMB AND SERVED REGULARLY AT OUR TABLE. I HAVE EVEN EXPERIMENTED WITH SWEET POTATOES AND BOY ARE THEY DELICIOUS. THANKS MISS BETH!!! EVERYTIME I SLICE THE POTATOES I START THINKING OF HER. MISS HER.<br>
SNOW MEN ARE BEING MADE OUT FRONT NOW AND WE NEED A NOSE FOR OUR SNOWMAN. SO I MUST SIGN OFF. HOPEFULLY THE NEXT TIME I GET ON IT WILL BE WITH SOMETHING FANTASTIC THAT I HAVE CREATED.<br>
CHEERS FOR NOW!!!<br>

It's a winter wonderland outside right now. Looks like the whole weekend is going to be shovelling the side walks and trying to find a new place to go sledding. Time to dig out all the winter gear. Not sure if we can find the winter gear. That will be an adventure in itself.<br><br>
Stuck inside may incite some new pieces. Finish up some pieces that I have been weaving. With all the holiday activities projects seem to be taking longer than usual. Hoping to finish and share soon.<br><br>
Until then, stay warm and enjoy the snow. Enjoy the sun if you are in the warm corner of the world.<br><br>

I also have these beads in a sandblasted light shade of blue.<br type="_moz">Wydinya tag:wydinya.com,2005:Post/116842009-12-08T13:12:00-05:002017-01-15T16:07:48-05:00FREE SHIPPING WHEN SPENDING $100 OR MORE!!!<img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/a3a564f1897df7b3d9c617b4adc779002e8f10b6/large/FREESHIPPING.jpg?1380133431" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="82" width="600" /><br type="_moz">Wydinya tag:wydinya.com,2005:Post/116732009-11-28T03:40:00-05:002009-11-28T03:40:00-05:00FREE SHIPPING WHEN SPENDING $100 OR MORE!!!Thanks for stopping in yesterday!!!

ENJOY!!!<br type="_moz">Wydinya tag:wydinya.com,2005:Post/116822009-11-12T10:55:09-05:002020-12-04T11:53:38-05:00THE WIND IS STIRRING AND THE WATER IS RISING. Wow, what does that have to do with jewellery. Nothing really. But the wind is howling and it is high tide. Can't leave the house without the wellies. What else is there to do but write something. But what????<br><br>
Well, I made the name tags for a friend of mine and I am quite liking the way they turned out. The delicate chain is pretty and the tags are dainty. The picture shows it looking larger due to the close up shots but the pendant is 1cm in width. So it is not too bulky. I will be making more soon. I will have every letter of the alphabet available within the next few days. The best part about these name tags is that you can also choose from pearls, gems or the swarovski crystals you see in the picture below in my last post. Also, if you are not a silver fan I can make in copper. Have a couple of kids and want a little variety. Choose mixing the metals, copper and silver. maybe even brass. <br><br>
Time to go and make these ideas into reality.<br><br>
Signing off for now.<br><br>
Cheers.<br><br>

But got you here. Anyway, I worked really hard taking pictures today and was so excited getting them posted to share. What happens, you ask??? Well, let me tell you. I stupidly switched to another page to view the post and pictures. was absolutely done and ready to publish. Doing it all through homework and the dog barking and working out details for a birthday party for my son this weekend. Arrangements were taken care of by the way, just in case you are wondering.. Well, with all that said I returned to a blank page. Gggggrrrrrrr!!!! Did not make me happy at all. Sooooooo, I am going to attempt this again. And tomorrow I will make sure I have my little pretties up in the shop for all of you to gobble up. Right????<br><br>
These great earrings are perfect for that holiday party coming up right around the corner. I know. The holidays are upon us once again. And these earrings can compliment that perfect holiday dress. I love the red, well i love all the colours. The blue earrings remind me of something blue, something borrowed, all in one.<br><br>
Surprised these pics turned out so well considering the gloomy, rainy day. But I was able to capture some sunlight to show the great colours of these briolettes.<br><br><br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/f38394b482b85f214382127ce5e7584c748d68f6/medium/BLUE.BRIOL.jpg?1380133431" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="267" width="200" /> <img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/222adcf6cfe650e3f0330d0b953ccc8210807db1/medium/SIMPLY.RED.jpg?1380133431" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="267" width="200" /> <img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/58e540882a7ed0fa1e8dbee7821760568b21dfa2/medium/GREENDROP.jpg?1380133431" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="267" width="200" /><br><br><br><br>
Also, as promised the name tag pendants. Like I said in the earlier post, these are perfect to make that subtle rememberance of your loved ones. Or give as a gift for your brides maids. Hope you like the pictures.<br><br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/186114c39c8f1b3d3b7fc66bd181b440a5d7c30a/medium/JIM.jpg?1380133431" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="267" width="200" /> <img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/41abf988c882566ff79d03f8b8c1778665b0a02c/medium/JIM.S.NECK.jpg?1380133431" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" height="225" width="300" /><br><br><br><br><br>

The windows are rattling every now and then but I am not going let that stop me from taking pictures and posting new items up on the site. I have found a good little corner in the house that has just enough sunlight to take pictures. So keep posted for new items daily being posted to the site.<br><br>
Also, custom tags are on the horizon. Just finishing up one for a friend. Place your child's initials on them or could make for a great gift for all your brides maids. Perfect gift all around. All sterling silver and hand stamped with the initials of your choice. Pictures will follow providing the light holds out for me.<br><br>
Until then.<br><br>

Hand dyed and printed by Trish Seimbora. Yep, that is right, hand dyed, so each t-shirt is unique and has it's own variation in colour and style. My favourite is the bat. I have a whole collection since my sons were babies. But now that they are older they are leaning towards the pigeons and the squirrels. CatERpillar fur make great gifts and you will find you may not want to give it up and keep it all to yourself.<br>
Below are just some samples of what I will be carrying here at Wydinya.

These are just a few new pieces, some you have seen before. Quite a variety I know, don't get confused. There is something for everyone. From classic rennaissance style to simple to recycled. The recycled pieces are my newer line. I wear one of these every day. They certainly can take the wear and tear of every day living. It is antiqued copper with a bubble like texture, then an aged washer is connected with an antiqued gold rivet. The necklace hangs on a leather cord. I also make these with polished copper and you will be able to find these on the necklace page. Please check back for more.<br><br>
Have been busy trying to get all my inventory photographed and posted on the site. Hope you like the new pix and the new updated site. <br><br>
No confirmed dates for shows as of yet. Keep checking back. Have missed many deadlines due to life being upside down right now. Am on some wait lists. But the only way right now to purchase any Wydinya will be via this site or through Bus Stop boutique on Fourth Street, Philadelphia. Will be placing new items in Bus Stop soon. Make sure you check in the shop for some great sales Elena is having. And be sure to place yourself on her mailing list for great sales and events.<br><br>
Be sure to check back soon!!!!<br><br>

These are a few pictures that my son took while I was busy at work. This was the Shad Festival event. Lots of fun....<br><br>
And yes I do make all this stuff. All hand made by the artist......lil ole me. <br><br>
Come see me at World Cafe Live this weekend. And if you are down the beach the following weekend, try to make it over to Cape May. I will be in West Cape May for a day. This too is a great event. Lots of local Cape May artists and the best crab cakes ever. The food is awesome.....And the event is held across the road from a very beautiful Historic bed and breakfast. Proceeds of this event goes to saving the park and preserving the history that we love so much about Cape May. <br><br>

I will be taking more pic's of this great stuff but until then perhaps you can come on out to the next event to take a gander to see what I have been up to. Unfortuantely with my schedule the way it has been it has not lent to getting that part done before a show.<br>

While art for the cash poor was rainy one day, you still made it out to check out this great event. and the Kimmel unfortunately was rained out also and they brought all of us in. Sorry to those who did come out and found out that they had to pay to get in. No-one knew until that afternoon for set up. While the Kimmel tried their best to accomadate the fees, if anyone called us we were unable to hear the phones due to all the wonderful activities going on inside. Kimmel center and Inliquid did their best to make this event come alive and it was surely alive from the inside. Thank you to everyone with all of your wonderful and kinds words. <br>
See you soon.<br>
Heading for the shore for the summer. So if you are in Cape May, stop on by for some fun events, on the way to the beach or coming from, maybe I might have that perfect necklace for that wonderful summer dress you bought for your summr vacation.<br>
See you at the beach.<br>

The weather was perfect and the gentle breeze from the river was refreshing. The bands were awesome. Met some terrific artists and caught up with some friends. Loads of families came out to the event to support the raising of the funds for Penn Treaty Park. Can't wait to find out what was raised. <br>
Thanks to everyone who came out to support a local park and local businesses. We need more events like this in the city.<br>
Now gearing up for the Trenton Avenue Art Festival on May 16th. Another great event to come out to. Family activities, live bands, local restaurants, breweries and local artists. Come on out and see what Wydinya has been up to over the winter months. Come check it out.<br>

Realizing that mainstream wedding shows are not appealing to all, this expo intends for everyone to participate no matter what their religion, race, preference, or income. This event redefines an industry dominated by commercial products and empowers people to think creatively.<br><br>
Unbridaled will showcase local florists, designers, organic caterers, photographers, and planners, as well as tattoo artists, artisan candle makers, fire spinners, and jewelry designers. A fashion show will showcase local designers and their take on distinctive wedding attire.<br><br>

Holiday sales abound. Loading and unloading. Time to reflect, regroup and reorganize. The three "R"s after a long run.<br><br>
Getting ready for the future events, applications are coming in already for 2009. Restocking new work in Bus Stop. And for sure will be photographing new work and posting soon on website. Keep checking back for updates.<br><br>
Am away for Christmas Holiday and just listening to the peace and quiet, it is so relaxing. The occasional seagull passing by. The sound of the ocean. So tranquil. The new year is not here but we will be for sure celebrating doing the mummer's strut New Years day. Thank goodness the Mummer's were able to raise enough funds to go on this year. It would have been quite an upset for the city to have their tradition cancelled due to the baseball championships. Great job and it was great for the city. But a bit disappointing for the city to even think about cutting the parade due to budget issues.<br><br>
Well, time to get breaky ready. See you doing the strut down Broad Street.<br><br>
Thank you for a wonderful year, see you next year.<br>
Have a safe and Prosperous year.<br><br>

Lets hope this works.<br>
Having a great time spending time with my friend, checking out some great restaurants and having dinner cooked for me. Wow, that is a vacation in itself. What fun!! Going to check out some of the local jewellery supply stores to see if Atlanta has something different to add to my new line. Always on the look out for something new and something fun.<br>
Time to go. Hope to get back later.<br type="_moz"></span></span></span><br type="_moz">Wydinya tag:wydinya.com,2005:Post/116582008-11-02T02:00:00-05:002008-11-02T02:00:00-05:00Sunday, Bloody Sunday and the World Cafe Art festival.Well, it is a gorgious Sunday morning, the sun is beaming into the house the chimes are dancing to the gentle breeze and the dog is jumping with excitement to take a walk on this beautiful Sunday morning.<br>
Me on the other hand, I am thinking about the great fun I have had in the studio this week, creating some fun one of a kind rings.<br>
Ooooops, sorry about that. The dog desparately needed attention, so i took care of that and it is now Wednesday. The Phillies have won their world series, the city is filled with energy and pride and the United States of America has had an outstanding and challenging election of all times. And according to history, the Democratic party has not won with these impressive numbers since 1964. Before I was born. Now that I am getting older, that doesn't come by so frequently anymore. not that I am complaining. But that is a long time for the Democratic party to win by such numbers.<br>
Back again, days later, I apologize for the gaps. life is just running a muck right now and I am just trying to make the best of it. So, I have been making signs and new displays for the world cafe live event. hoping it will all work out, everything fits and people are drawn to my work. I still haven't had a chance to photograph and post the new work. So I am hopeful that people will come out to see it, touch it and perhaps try pieces on. In the next few months I will be vigilent about getting pieces photographed and posted in the store. but until then coming to the events will be the only way to catch some of the new work. Time has just flashed by. Too many weddings, which is fantastic, don't get me wrong. And of course great fun to be had. Life. <br>
So please try to make it out to the world cafe live festival, this is a unique event and I am excited to be a part of it. And of course helping the local public radio station.<br>
See you there!!!!<br>
Cheers<br>

There are some great new artists to check out and watch at league street studios. It was great to see theier work and some were even working on openings while the tours were going on. Now that is dedication. Terrific seeing the work in motion.<br><br>
I hope everyone is excited about the new work they have purchased this past weekend and telling all your friends about Wydinya.<br><br>
Myself, have now broken down that event and am now preparing for the World Cafe Live Event. I THINK THIS COULD BE A GREAT EVENT TO COME AND CHECK OUT. Although it is a $3 addmission charge, I think it will be worth it. There will be bands playing from what I have been reading about and some great local artists to purchase their art work. And it supports a great public radio station. I think I am going to start my holiday shopping early. <br>
Well, enough gabbing, time to get some work done.<br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><br><img src="//d10j3mvrs1suex.cloudfront.net/u/61749/ee9bcd75fe55a21464b484b0ae1d262621446bf1/original/leaguestreeto8.jpg?1380133429" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" style="width: 439px; height: 329px;" /><br></span></span></div>
<span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);"><span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);"><br></span>Wow, it is another year gone by and the tours have already begun. The West side was last weekend. Hope everyone got out to check out the talent that Philadelphia has to offer.<br><br>
This year at League Street Studios should be a good one with new faces and talent to be seen. Can't wait to take a gander at what everyone has been up to in their studios.<br><br>
I have had a productive day in the studio myself and can't wait to share. New type of Rivet rings, bangles and earrings. Also, I found some really cool glass pieces that I think are the bomb. Circles of life in glass form. Fantastic colours, can't wait to take some pictures and post on the site for everyone to see. So keep in touch and check back often so you don't miss out the fun stuff that I have been creating.</span><br><br>
<span style="color: rgb(255, 0, 0);">Don't forget to check out times and direction on the event page. Just remember to look for the red door just off of the Italian market. Bring your shopping list and don't forget to stop by Fante's for some great coffee or hot chocolate. Keep yourself toasty while walking the tour.</span><br><br><span style="color: rgb(51, 51, 51);">See you this weekend!!!<br><br>

Great music and art to be viewed by all.<br><br>
This is the first time selling in Redbank and it would be lovely to see some familiar faces. Yet I am very excited to meet new people also. Please be sure to tell your friends who live close by, perhaps they can take the ferry over from Manhatten for a great little day trip. Get away from the hustle of the city. Sit on the river banks and enjoy the breeze while listening to some great music. Hit some great little restaurants the town has to offer also. This town rocks. And if you do get a chance to come up you have to check out their toy store, it is the best I have ever been in. I am not kidding. If you are into music, this is the town for you also. their music store has the best selection of guitars, next to Bluebond, Philadelphia and Grassroots, Ocean City, New Jersey. <br>
Well, time to get back into the studio and get some pieces finished for the show. <br>
See you soon.<br>

Thank you to everyone who came out to see me and share this beautiful day. Met some great people, sold many of my peices and my jewellery was liked by all. Great compliments happily received. Thank you. <br><br>
And to the person who liked my ring so much, who couldn't live without it and decided to take it without paying. Go well, it is a one of kind hand painted ring. Please be sure to tell your friends who the designer is and perhaps they will feel bad about your venture into the art show and purchase the next time they enter any event of that type. It is an awesome ring and deserves to be viewed by all.<br><img src="./images/content/rings2829-300.jpg" class="size_orig justify_inline border_" alt="" style="width: 106px; height: 90px;" /><br><br>
