Making Jewelry

Daily writing prompt
Are there any activities or hobbies you’ve outgrown or lost interest in over time?

Back in mid 2000 I was all about beading, fusing and using a clay mixture to make earrings, bracelets and necklaces I even have a pasta machine and an oven just for that. 

I still have my kiln, and bead making torch and all the supplies to start up again, but Watercolor has a hold of me still, and I seem to be so focused on just one thing at a time, in my chaotic life right now.

I just can’t go to the barn and play with those things at the moment, even going out and buying cute earrings for February, from another, when I could have made anything, I desired. 

I even have items listed for sale on Marketplace with hopes of finding someone a bit more focused on tedious jewelry making and all the craft fairs needed to sell them all. I guess that may be the real issue making so many I feel the need to sell them to those looking to spend a $1 for things that cost 10 x’s that for the pieces never mind my time. 

I paint and if it never sells as an Original, I add it on my online shop and each time a card or other item with its image sells, I feel like someone else saw a bit of worth in what I am trying to create.


Thanks for the prompt @WordPress maybe I just need to remember to wear some of the pieces I made and stored away to get me started again.
