GIVEAWAY, Jewelry Updates, Mailing List and More!

It's kind of funny how I always end my blog post titles with "and More!". LOL! But there's always so much to talk about!

Look to your right for my new mailing list sign-up. I plan on offering special deals and steals and new news in my newsletter. I'm hoping to only send one once per week, so I don't spam anyone. :) --------------------->

I've decided to have a Jewelry Show Saturday, January 15th, noon to six pm, and Sunday, January 16th, two to four pm. You can see the flyer by clicking here. LOTS OF NEW JEWELRY to choose from. I've been making jewelry like a mad woman, so please come and check it out! You can RSVP by clicking here, (it's a facebook event!). I do hope to see tons of you here! I'm also hoping to offer some sort of refreshments, but we'll see. (Maybe apple cider and cheese and crackers? Any ideas would be appreciated!).

Regretsy, FIV and More.

Aidan is on CNN! He's a charming little boy who draws monsters and then sells his work in his Etsy shop to help pay for his cancer care. Featured on Regretsy, and now CNN, it's an amazing story. :) My prayers are with Aidan for a speedy recovery.

In cat news, the TRUTH ABOUT FIV, (Feline Immuno-deficiency Virus), can be found HERE. In all honesty, I hadn't realized that FIV was NOT spread easily. Since I'm a cat crazy person, this came as news to me. Now I'm sharing, because I think it's important because:
1) FIV positive kitties deserve good homes
and
2) it's no good to be ignorant of the facts about FIV.
So if you're thinking of adopting, why not give one of these lovely FIV+ cats a try? They need your love and compassion, too!

I think I might participate in the Art Bead Scene Bead Challenge this December. :) It would be pretty cool to use one of my own polymer clay beads in a jewelry design. *grins* I'll keep ya'll posted about it all, and of course, will post pictures if I actually make something for the challenge.
