I am incredibly excited to introduce you to an awesome new Etsy seller. I have to admit, I discovered this shop through the Daily Ditties at Wickedly Chic.
Frozen in Time is a shop full of truly unique pendants. These pendants are photographic images from inside of kaleidescopes, mounted in acrylic pendants. Absolutely stunning!!
The secret's out! I'm a football fanatic, and a big time Indianapolis Colts fan! In celebration of tonight's big season opener game...just a little bit of team spirit.

Many of you may have been wondering where I've been. Things have been busy at home, and I haven't had much time for blogging.
The biggest chunk of my time has gone to my son. Our 4 yr old son had his tonsils and adenoids removed last Thursday. So, we spent our Labor Day weekend nursing him back to health. I'd say that he pulled through it very well, but we definitely had our ups and downs. He has been fairly low key, and his appetite comes and goes. The biggest challenge we've had is getting him to drink enough fluids. Today is his first day back at daycare...a little sad for me. Hopefully it goes well, because tomorrow is another big day for him. Tomorrow is the first day of preschool. Last week they had an open house, and he had a blast. So much so that when it came time to leave, he didn't want to go home.
It is a bit weird not having the kids around today. It has been a while since I've taken them to daycare on one of my days off...and after a long weekend with them, it sure is quiet around here. I mustn't spend too much time enjoying the peace and quiet though...there is much to do today. I need to finish cleaning up around the house. More importantly, I must finish getting things together for an appointment I have this afternoon. I'm headed over to check out the lovely little shop opening today in Lake Villa, called Artisans Ball. I actually heard about the shop through Etsy, as the owner is an Etsy seller. The shop features a number of indie artists, a list which will hopefully include myself soon too.
Over the coming weeks, I will do what I can to bring the blog back up to normal speed. It may take a while though because my husband has a couple of business trips, and I'll be a single mom for a while. Thanks so much for your patience!!
Two fabulous new necklaces added to my shop today!! The first is part of the etsyBEAD street team theme of the week sale. This week's theme is "Keeping Cool"! Here is my necklace, entitled "Cold as Ice":
The other new piece is a personal favorite of mine. I absolutely love these colors and how they all came together. This necklace, entitled "Ocean Pebbles" is the newest piece from my fall "Dreamy" line. It features Blue Apatite, Bronzite, Amazonite and Mother of Pearl.
Stop by today to see what else is new at Sapphire Lizard Designs!!!
Today's random Etsy find is a stunning ACEO from Sujati, entitled "Searching for Answers"
If you like this piece, then you're sure to love the rest of Sujati's artwork too. Stop by and browse her shop today!
Family committments have left my poor little blog a little lonely lately. I'm doing my best to keep a steady, but unfortunately slow, flow of new material here for my loyal readers.
So...stop by Leaping Lizards today and check out the rest of the shop! Be sure to mention that you saw them here!!The time has finally come for me to introduce the first pieces of my fall line. First, I want to tell you a bit about what to expect.
The "Dreamy" line has been designed with rich shades of blue and splashes of purple, accented with creamy, natural colors. The "Dreamy" pieces have been created using lovely gemstones and Swarovski crystals and accented with sterling silver findings. Sodalite, Lapis Lazulis, Amethyst and Fluorite. Riverstone, Mother of Pearl and Aragonite. These are only the beginning.
I plan on listing the first few pieces from the "Dreamy" line in my Etsy shop tonight.
