Accessorize. February 21

Well, this day I thought I would choose some special items. The necklace is just a stretchy band with some beads on it. Doesn't sound too special? Well, my son used some of his money and went to a garage sale around the corner from our home. He brought me back this necklace. I couldn't believe how thoughtful that was. He said he knew how I loved jewelry. Awww. The watch is from my other son. He picked it out for me for Christmas one year because he thought I would love to wear it on our boat. 

The earrings were a gift from my husband many years back, and the ring I made for myself. :) Awesome stuff

Oh, This combination turned out great. I chose my Brighton jewelry necklace, my silver band Anne Klein watch, 3 bangle bracelets with turquoise coloring, these are from my resale store. Other accessories are available via Shoplocket here on the blog.  Also, I found some small silver earrings in my drawer and I thought they matched pretty well.

Here is what I wore on February 15th. Love this Anne Klein watch that my Mom gave me, my usual gold earrings that I probably wear too much, and a brown and green beaded necklace that I made a while ago. 

Check out my Etsy shop for some great jewelry at amazing prices. 

I also have some other accessories in an online shop called shoplocket. Some of those items I didn't make.

I always wanted to have an accessory store well, I don't have a brick and mortar store so I opened an online accessory store. 

I'm starting small but with your help I hope to grow.

On February 12 I wore my Anne Klein silver watch, a bracelet from my husband that has X's as the connectors. I also wore black flower style earrings; I have no idea where I got them from. And lastly, I wore a necklace that I did make with Swarovski pearls in light blue, purple, silver and glitter shades. I don't have any like it in the shop but I do have so many other really great things. Thanks for the support.

Here is the necklace below.

On this day I wore earrings that I love and probably wear too much. The new watch my mom picked up for me on vacation in Florida. and a pretty bracelet that was a gift from the boys and hubby. I believe it has a matching watch but I think the batter is dead. No necklace today because the neckline of the dress I wore didn't need anything. Nothing handmade today however, please check out my shop for some wonderful accessories. thanks

Keeping it simple. I was off of work today until I had to go into work to do the 11pm news. I wore my red Gossip watch from QVC, my handmade shamballa bracelet and simple silver hoop earrings that have little diamonds on the front. I didn't wear a necklace because It's been so cold around and I had on a large neck black sweater.

Here are the accessories that I wore on February 5. I wore a red watch from QVC. It was a  gift a while ago and the best part about it was that it came with 4 other watches.  A bracelet from Brighton jewelry. I bought it at a little shop called Skillmans in Chautauqua county. They have been there since 1908. I also had earrings from Lia Sophia and a handmade bracelet. You can find this one in my shop. :)

Look at that wrist.

The bracelet is braided leather and suede with a magnetic clasp. The bracelet is available in the shop.

Here is what I chose to wear on Sunday, February 3rd. Super bowl Sunday. I baked cookies and headed off to work. The recipe will be posted soon. I wore a white Fossil watch (gift). I also wore a shamballa style bracelet that I purchased last year when I saw it on the Today show's steals and deals. I bought a bunch for Christmas gifts and a few for myself. I have some available in my shop that are just amazing. 

I also wore a lovely pair of gun metal earrings from Lia Sohpia. It was again a situation where I was purchasing some Christmas gifts and picked up a few pairs of earrings for me :)

Finally, the necklace is from the Tori Spelling collection at JoAnns. I picked two pieces and used the jump rings to put it together. Simple.

Here is the look of the necklace.

Summer

It has been challenging over the summer to make new jewelry work full time and make the summer fun for the boys. Here are some of my new creations that are available at MyMichelleJewelry.etsy.com. They are all in limited supply. I particularly like the earrings in the first frame because a good friend of mine went with me to the bead show and helped me pick them out. She lives across the country and it was just hanging around and chatting while we shopped. I hope you like them too. (the pair on the right have sold)

Here is some of what we have been up to over the past couple of months. We were on our way home from Chautauqua lake and stopped at Lake Erie and collected some stones and tossed a few in the lake. We also made a trip to Toronto, Canada. We went to the top of the CN tower and took in a Blue Jays game.  We walked all over the city and we really felt like city folk. We loved the people walking all over the city with their ipods dangling from their ears.  I enjoyed it so much then I remembered that one day winter and snow would descend upon the city and make the walking very challenging and chilly.

We had been promising our little one that we would take him to the Toronto zoo for many years now and we finally did.  Our zoo in Buffalo certainly leaves a bit to be desired and the Toronto zoo was a trip worth taking.

I have been working on earrings lately and hope to have a little more time now that the little men are headed back to the classroom.
