Jewelry Class

My last jewelry making class is tomorrow night. Boohoo! I didn't get into the next one because they fill up too quickly. I like the slot and tab bracelet project a lot, and I think that I'm going to do it again! I have some of the tools that I need to do it on my own; I just need to buy a saw frame, bench pin, more saw blades, and sheet metal. I think that as long as I'm creative I will be able to make a wide range of designs just using simple techniques.

Since I went to design school I don't feel the need to "experiment" too much with materials. There's nothing wrong with that but I just want to make beautiful things. I don't feel like I have to prove my creativity... I have a whole portfolio to show show it!

I'll post some pictures of the finished bracelet once Jacob is home from Japan (with the camera).

The knitting project is on hold until I get some jewelry done and the holiday excitement is calming down!

Baby K Update

I realize that I haven't mentioned Baby K much lately. I'm still watching her full-time which is an awesome job! She's about 7 months old, and she's sitting up and moving all over the place. (Well... right now she's in her swing sleeping!) She's cuter than ever and plays and "talks" all day long.

We went to Baby Laptime at the library today, and we sang songs about snow. She had fun listening to the storyteller and looking at all of the other babies. While we were there, I got a Columbus Metropolitan Library card... woohoo! Now I will be able to borrow books and movies from there when we visit! (As soon as I finish the million or so books I still have yet to read at home)

He's On His Way...

Jacob's on his way from the right side of the map to the middle of the map today. He's gonna be there for about 10 days. I'm a little jealous of him because I've never been to Japan! Lucky!

Wedding Pictures from Elbe

I just took the proofs that I like from the photographer's website yesterday, so I've been posting them around! I like this one, it was taken right after the bridal party entered the reception. I like how it's pretty casual, and the lighting is kind of harsh... which is kinda cool!

Christmas Tree!

Jacob and I finished decorating our first Christmas tree! It might be a little sad and scrawny, but we're proud of it! We have some old ornaments and a lot of new ornaments from Target.
