Just in case you are wondering “what on earth are you talking about?” I lost my jewelry mojo the other day. I remade one simple stinkin’ necklace not once but twice, and it still came out awful. I couldn’t believe such a simple thing was giving me fits.

Yesterday and today I’ve been making jewelry, and today I tackled the evil necklace, the one that wasn’t doing what I wanted it to do. I remade it a third time, and now, I just need to add the findings and she’s finished.

Just in time too.

The semester is kicking in.

Be BOLD.

Luxury Electronic addicts need look no further than Bling My Thing’s new “Golden Age” laptop. Unveiled at CeBIT 2008, “Golden Age” is a Macbook Air clad in 12,000 Swarovski crystals. The crystals are even more reflective than usual thanks to a coating of 24k gold applied under each crystal. The translucence of the crystals allows for true uber luxury. Each “Golden Age” takes about a week to fabricate since each and every crystal is hand-applied, so only 20 of these elegant computers exist, one of which will be for sale at Selfridges, Oxford Street, on March 18th. That is if you wont break the bank on the $39,750 price tag for the mega-laptop.
