Whew! Getting ready for Halloween has been fun, but I went all-out on my costume this year, so that's been my main creative motivation lately. Now that it's done, maybe some of the jewelry juices will come back. Hopefully the writing ones will as well, since I'm doing NaNoWriMo (National Novel Writing Month) again next month. My plan right now is to make jewelry when I'm all out of writing steam, and vice versa. Well, insofar as I actually have a plan.
Anyway, there is some new stuff today. I made some earrings for the Storm Goddess necklace, and a "Leaf Mail" bracelet, which was a lot of fun. I got in a couple of scale mail kits from The Ring Lord (http://theringlord.com/), so I'm going to play around with those a bit. I love scale mail, but I have next to no patience for all the tedious ring joining involved. My leaf mail was done with wire and leather rather than rings, and I like the suppleness it imparts, plus it's a slightly faster process.
My goal right now is to post at least one new thing a week, so we'll see how that goes. November is going to be nuts, but it's my own fault. :P
