I started out making beaded jewelry, and I still do, but I love messing around with metal. I have only a few tools, and less skill, but every once in a while it works out. The dangles are 1mm lead free pewter, cut, embossed and painted by me, hung with lapis lazuli rondelles, & some little accents.

Wow! One of my submissions for the July #goimagine maker challenge, In a Pickle, was selected as a finalist! I entered a necklace made using various green glass beads, including vintage beads from one of my great grandmother's necklaces. You can vote for your fave here:

I struggle with photography. I gravitate to plain white backgrounds with no props. I really only care that my jewelry in photos aligns with what my eyes see IRL, but I also know pics are important in grabbing attention, and it's only seconds until a potential buyer clicks away. Testing new ideas 💜

Still struggling with how to use this platform, I but don't think I want to engage solely for marketing. That said, I have been in a funk lately and haven't been making or doing much social media, and today, I made some earrings, so I decided to post them here. Not listed yet, but I'll get to that!

Thanks for doing this, Leyna! I'm trying to figure out how to be more active on this platform, trying to learn from people like you! I've been in a creative slump the last couple of weeks, but here's a necklace I made a while back. Flame colored copper. My goimagine website is mieloabelodesigns.com

My mom was a teacher. Before she retired, she got her masters. She recruited Adult Me to help with some assignments, one a "right brain/left brain" test. We got a kick out of the results-I was down the middle. Made sense-I struggle with both creative & analytical endeavors & enjoy both. Who else?

First post. Sometimes I run. This past weekend, I actually ran in the Austin Cap10k and got a medal! OK everyone got a medal 😅. First 10k in 15 years. It was Sunday, and today is Wednesday, and I'm just now almost able to walk normally. What did I learn? Always do the hard thing even when it's hard.
