A lot has been done, now.

Finally, I've started getting things done. I think it was the potential of possibly needing to do another show that lit the fire under my butt to get me moving, but I'm thankful of it.

Things I've gotten done that needed to be done:

- table cloth--check!
- change apron--check!
- jewellery tree--check!
- new work posted to artfire--check!

That's decent in my books. But there's actually more!

Things I've gotten done that just kind of...happened.

- found a new form of jewellery that I love and that everyone else seems to love too!
- have spurred my convention partner back to work on her own art
- am half finished one of my other costumes
- printed off all my flyer advertisements


Things are moving right along excellently. I can't wait for the convention, though I'm pretty ticked about the prospect of my final exam interrupting that morning. That exam is going to get flown through faster than I've ever done before, because I'll have motivation. I'm going to study like crazy, so that I know everything, and can have my butt out of there in an hour, instead of two. I don't think the convention really gets going as early as ten...ugh, nevermind, I checked. The workshops are in progress by 9. Not good. Oh well, I'll manage just fine if we can set up the night before, because then Chris can just watch things for me for an hour.

2010 has flown so far. It's nice, but staggering.

And there are still a number of things I NEED to get finished;

- more product for the convention
- displays
- business cards
- finish costume
- icepack rig

Overall, though, this list is far less daunting than the last one.

And here, finally, are the pictures of my two newest pieces!





I love making these. They're between 1 and 2 inches in diameter, usually closer to 1.5.

They are SO fun to make, though not when the wire springs and sends things in every direction. Like hard to see beads that are sharp when later stepped on.

That's all for now! Have a great week!
