THIS IS MY 250TH POST!!!! I started this blog in January of 2006. It is hard to believe that I have posted 250 times. How could I possibly have that much to say? I have to say that this blog has been such a wonderful experience for me. It has been my outlet for venting, my place to share, my place to make new friends, and a place to explore my thirst for new and creative ideas. I have developed some awsome friendships through my blog and seriously, I don't know how I would have made it through the last 2 years without them and their support. We are so blessed to have this avenue of finding those with common interests. I just can't say enough about it.
That being said, I want to celebrate this moment (250 posts) by sponsoring a give away. I'm going to give one (random drawing) person a 20.00 gift certificate from Dick Blick art supplies. In order to participate you must;
- Post a comment here about one of my 2006 blog entries. You can find them by searching the dated posts on the side bar.
- Post a link to my blog on your site. http://www.funkyartqueen.blogspot.com/
Now, let me tell you what I have been up to. I have been experimenting with metal and found objects to make jewelry. You would not think that this would be so difficult right? But, I have been learning so much about working with metals. It is amazing how what works with copper does not necessarily work with tin or brass or steel. It is nice to have a new media to work with. This is a found object bracelet I finished today. I think it is so cool that you can recycle metal objects to create something like this.

Congrats on your 250th post! Although I recently "met" you I find you to be so inspiring and a very giving artist.
Perusing through your 2006 posts, the December 29, 2006 really struck me because it was the "Ode to Klimt" tree that you did and I had my 5th graders do a mixed media version of the Tree of Life using gold paint and magazine images of animals to represent life and of course some sequins to add sparkle!
I hoe you continue to create your found object jewelry...you certainly have a knack for it!
