Where Has Summer Gone?

I never intended to take an entire summer off from posting; I was actually embarrassed to even write a new post... Until I noticed when catching up with some of my fave blogs, I'm not the only one! :D

Summer is nearly over, and though it will be missed, I won't be missing the hectic world I've been living in. I'm looking very forward to fall, and even winter (my fave season), for things to be much more settled, and for me to have much more time for myself.

Busy-ness! One of the very busy things I've been up to has been the creation of Mardi Studio's collection for Fall 2008.

The Soleil Earrings

There's been no lack of inspiration with many new and beautiful additions to my gemstone stash from my latest buying trip to a gem show in August. I've started to add the new pieces to my Etsy shop and to my website. Speaking of my website, I'm holding a "Free for Fall" drawing for the month of September. Sign up for the Mardi Studio newsletter and you're automatically entered to win a pair of Muguet earrings from the Fall collection! Read the details here . :)

Much to my pleasant surprise, my Soleil earrings were included in a treasury that I found last night! Thank you so much to BBB Creations!

Welcome back! I have missed reading your blog.

When are you leaving on your trip? I did not forget, I am waiting to hope in your suitcase.

Congrats on surviving a remodel. My hat is off to you. I would just move, but then again, I have that luxury since my husband is a builder. lol!

Thank you Misti! I've missed reading yours as well, but I'm going to dig in and read back to where I left off. :)

The trip has been postponed until next spring; we received a wedding invitation from friends over there, so it makes more sense to go then rather than make two trips. Not that I'd mind two trips, but one is certainly more cost-effective. ... But now you'll have more time to pack! :D

Spiked morning coffee, I'm with you! LOL
