Hey Howdy Hey Partners! Yet another week bites the dust, how is that possible?! I suppose when one spends the better part of it in a sick daze, it's quite possible indeed! We had a super fun time this morning on Jewelry Television's Jewel School. I'll be making my official debut this Thursday on our Thanksgiving Day show from 9am-12pm EST. Tune in to see if I can go from sketch to finished design without any mishaps or mayhem during the three hour show.

A few bloggy shout outs are in order today.
