If you've wondered where I make MY PEACE of jewelry Mannequins and Jewelry, you don't have to wonder any more. In my apartment, in the kitchen. I live in studio apartment, I have the main room, where I sectioned into a sitting area and bedroom.  I made the couch with salvaged materials. The seat cushions are from a couch left in the alley. A piece of wood, that the cushions are on, I found in the alley too. The accent pillows are from the thrift stores. The black body pillows and brown pillows are from Bed, Bath & Beyond I will show the step-by-step making of the seat bench in another post. The bathroom. I tiled the bathroom and hung the shelves. Then I have the kitchen. It's big enough for a dining room table. I don;t eat my meals in the kitchen. I've made in my work space. My work space is hidden behind the book case next to the stove Voila!  Work Space My Work Space for making MY PEACE of jewelry Handc...

I'm not a very religious person, but I am spiritual and  do like the basic messages of Buddhism and Hinduism.  Even though I did not know the symbolism of this amulet,  I was drawn to it. It's a lady with several hands riding on a tiger In my research, I've discovered, the symbol represents positive feminine energy and power. She is goddess Durga, who symbolizes the divine forces (positive energy)  known as the divine shakti (feminine energy/power)  The word "durga" means fort or a place that is protected and thus difficult to reach.  Durga, protects by destroying forces negative energy and vices, i.e.,  arrogance, jealousy, prejudice, hatred, anger, greed and selfishness).

I love this necklace!  I made it using amber colored seed beads green Turquoise chip beads a scattering of brass beads and finally featuring a  Tagua Nut Pendant What are Tagua Nuts Tagua Nut,  also known as vegetable ivory, because of its hardness,  is the actual seed of a tree similar to a palm tree.

I finally caved in and bought some Sneaker Wedges These are the latest trend.  Sneakers with an internal wedge heel.  In browsing the Internet,  the views are pretty mixed from headlinesstating   "Summer's Ugliest Trend? Sneaker Wedges Should be Banned!    to various blog posts giving PRAISEs and TIPS on how to WEAR The pair that started the Sneaker Wedge trend is Isabel Marant brand Cost $649! They cost $649 dollars. Personally, I feel is ridiculous for shoes. This weekend, a friend revealed to me that she bought two pairs. She loves them but says they are uncomfortable. Who buys $649 pair of shoes that you can't walk in?! I like the shoes. But I'm not paying $649 I found a pair. They are extremely comfortable and very easy to walk in for us non-heel wearing women.   That's right brand is Bumper cost $30 at DB Shoes on 3rd Street Promenade My Tips to Wearing Sneaker Wedges Tip 1.
