Mid October…hunting widow time…the time I let my husband free and he roam’s the Idaho mountains for two and half weeks. He has the most wonderful time in “God’s Country” he calls it…almost 10,000 feet up in the Sawtooth Mountains. So for me….I get to play Cruise Director for his two dogs, that get really depressed…poor things…things to pep them up….well I won’t stoop to drive through at McDonalds…that’s what Dan does when I leave for my girlfriend time trips to TN. I might just cook them a home cooked meal instead LOL.
The good news is, October is gorgeous…we have had rain…but many days of gorgeous, sunny warm weather. Oregon is green…with the tree’s almost done loosing their golden leaves. Normally the valley is dry and the grass not so green, our fields are the same way. Not this year…they are plush green like spring….yet it’s fall and the tree’s are loosing all their golden goodness. It’s gorgeous! I might get to get plenty of golf in before ‘winter’ really comes…the time changes and all that.
So….back to beads…I have been torching a lot more lately…auctions up on eBay…it took two years of golf and pulling away to get the want to make and create back and the want to try eBay again. Oh we have dabbled and kept a presence on Artfire and Etsy, and our koregonbeads.com site….but now…I am going forth with eBay once again. I adored eBay for years…back in 2002 when I started making beads, it was ever so good to me…really good for six plus years. Then the economy tanked and things quit selling well and I was tired…I needed a break from torching seven days a week and posting auctions every day. Now I think I can do some of both…relax, golf and enjoy life…and have the bead biz flowing but not quite so full steam…after all, I am almost 50 (next month) I need to enjoy…life is just to short.
So if your interested to see what we have on eBay….here is a sample of some gorgeous floral beads I made.
a great item we have up on Etsy …
