Laura dreams the dream of living like a craft-star pop diva. Striving to become an artisan whose art is the "day job." Knowing that in an alternate dimension this is the case, she does the behind the scenes work in this reality to create the cool items, that score her diva status over there, in that alternative place.

Excited
About a week ago, Fire Mountain Gems sent me the matted image of my medusa necklace. I knew it had placed as a finalist in the metals competition, but this.... this looks like a magazine ad.
Im so excited. I will make sure I share if and when it gets used as an ad.

Yahoo!
Tomorrow I send off (over night delivery of course) a necklace I entered into the Fire Mountain Gems polymer clay competition.
Three years I have entered, and three years I have made it to advanced judging.
Im excited and nervous.
This up coming year I plan on entering the metal clay competition.
I need some other contests and such to enter......

What to expect in the new year?

My Wednesday inspiration is: what is going to keep me going this next year
So what's next?
This is a great question!
Do I merely fade back into the background, or do I use my kudos for this year as my spring board?
Spring board baby!
I have joined RAW-ring a week, this is a personal design and crafting challenge
I will update the etsy shop, I have so much stuff, and so little is shown. Check back weekly as I will be adding and adding.
I will update my products.
Somethings just aren't selling, like earrings. Im not going to be making these anymore, I mean why bother.
However the hats seem to be popular, and I will begin offering the new mini hat in January
Rings are fun for me, and with the RAW challenge I will have plenty.
Hinges, I have figured them out and plan on running with that pair of scissors.
Selling tips. I need them, so I will be reading and sharing.
Finish what I've started
That whole Wednesday inspiration thing. I will follow thru.
More tutorials at Clay lessons. I have had great success with the one I have, so I will be adding more.
More competitions and magazine submissions. Im already planning my next Fire Mountain entry--not the metal clay this year, maybe next year.
I love crafting the crafts I do, its my happy place. I have a friend who said Im a craft witch. I will proudly embrace that title (You know like a kitchen witch can cook, and garden witch can grown anything)
I plan on spending a lot more time in my happy place this next year.
