Following the Followers.....

by MaryAnn Carroll

One of the great things about being an author on this blog is the freedom to go with whatever I want to write about.  Of course, I need to stay focused and probably shouldn't write about things that are unrelated such as the fact that, at this moment, many birds are flying all around my window and keep coming back and forth to the bird feeder.....or....my blind dog who insists on sitting on my lap while I type on the computer.....Whoops!  ...   losing focus!!  These are my current distrators.....it doesn't take much ;o)

That tends to be a problem for me.  My brain is one of those that just jumps from idea to idea and it has a hard time staying in one place.  When I'm on a mission, however, no matter how big or small, I am able to keep focused for an extended period of time. Today's mission was to find 10 artists who follow Love My Art Jewelry and show off their artwork...

Whether it is finished jewelry or components that you might want to add to your own jewelry designs, check out what some of our followers have been doing in the world of~

~creating handmade with handmade~

a very funky pendant by sculptedwindows...

and lastly, this awesome pendant created by urbandon...

How fun is that?  Not only did it keep me focused, but I had a blast shopping in these stores....

Don't forget ... tomorrow we will be drawing for the fabulous necklace made by Mary Jand Dodd.  Also, stay tuned for the winner of our Call-to-Create.  There is still one day left!!!

Thanks so much for featuring my bird ring! All the items featured are lovely. I can definitely relate to the distractions...my computer is my biggest distraction for sure!

Very cool pieces! Thanks for gathering these together and giving us all something to feast with our eyes (as opposed to our bellies!)
