After spending most of the day trying to integrate a fancy WordPress blog into my current website, I’ve given up. I’ve decided to blog using RapidWeaver first and see how frequently I keep it up. I never was one to write a journal so we’ll see how this works.

I’ve been on Vancouver Island for a week now and it has been great. I’ve sold my first piece on ETSY. What a great moment! So exciting! Now I just have to ship my necklace (in its pretty package) to Texas. I’ve been trying to make a piece or two every day. So far I’ve completed 5 necklaces and about 4 pairs of earrings. I hope to keep it up in the coming days.

Today, however, I fell into the technology vortex. Normally I really like the challenge of puzzling through something. I gave it my all today, but sometimes you just need to step back or walk away.

Welcome to my first blog entry. I’ll keep it short for the time being. I love to create beautiful jewellery inspired by colour and nature. In the last few months I’ve set up a shop at ETSY, under the name Mo’ Funk Designs. I’ve also ordered some sterling silver and gold filled wire to practice a little bit of wire and hammer work. I’ll keep you posted as to how it’s working out. This summer I plan to spend my time getting ready for fall home shows and a one day art show (Art on the Farm, August 15 in Chilliwack, BC). Check back for updates on how these projects are progressing through the summer.
