Linda Jo Designs is born!
My good friend's bead shop, Dragonfly Bead Co, re-opened in its new location this week. It was a long time coming for her and I'm thrilled that the new location is quite likely to make her busier than her wildest dreams. And, she hired Miranda to work in the shop.

| 1st sale - almost didn't take these because I wasn't sure about them! |

| 2nd sale - love these vintage button hoops |
She added a consignment area to the store and has allowed me to show my handmade jewelry. That is very fun for me. So far, two pairs of earrings have been sold. And, not that it's a competition or anything, but my earrings were the first item sold from the consignment area. Makes me happy. Wins all around.
I really enjoy making jewelry, particularly from jewelry that I have taken apart and combined in a new way. I also love to use old buttons. More on this in another post, but here's my favorite "upcycled" piece so far:
