Red, White and BEE-lue with Martha Stewart Jewelry

I definitely consider myself a beginner at jewelry making.

I know how to open a jump ring and attach charms to chains, but that is about it.

Well, look at what this novice did with

Martha Stewart's new jewelry line!

I was honored to sample the amazing new

Martha Stewart Jewelry line
that is sold exclusively at Michael's.

A box filled to the brim with gorgeous products arrived at my door

and 

I could not wait to get started making some fun things to wear this summer.

I pulled out the 

Red, White and Blue Jewelry Enamels...

a few of Martha's charms...

 and got to work.

It is so easy, 

you simply mix the enamel with the activator according to the instructions...

 and apply with a toothpick...

then just wait a few hours for the enamel to dry...
that is it!

I attached the charm to a jump ring and then onto the chain necklace with toggle clasp.

(all compliments of Martha)

The sky is the limit on what you can create and the color combinations.
Next time you are at Michaels, browse the Martha Jewelry section you will be amazed.

Thank you Martha,
your jewelry line and I are going to have a

 BEE-utiful friendship.

Family Share...great Mother's Day Reading!

I was recently introduced to the fabulous new website and resource 

FamilyShare.com. 

It is full of interesting articles touching on everything from 

Kids' Activities and Family Time to Fitness and Money Management.

It is a whole network of information on how to strengthen yourself and your family.  

They have everything covered and I love that the search box is labeled 

"search for solutions".

Want to train for a marathon-there is an article for that...

Need tips on how to pack for a move-there is an article for that...

Looking on tips for your child to survive the 1st year in college-there is an article for that...

Since Mother's Day is tomorrow,

I read up on 

Kicking Mommy Guilt to the Curb, 

How there are NO perfect Mothers and 

analyzed what kind of mom I really am.

I learned some new things, had a few laughs and I am now ready to enjoy my day!

If you have a specific question or topic you would like more information on

they have a great questions and answers page, 

where you can get answers and help others.

Check out FamilyShare.com and their Facebook Page 

(where they have over 4 million followers!)

Happy Reading and Learning!
