In My World...

So I've been thinking about starting a blog for a while. Some of you may even know I created this page months ago, set it up the way I liked, linked to all the cool stuff I could, and then I did a whole lot of nothing with it.

See, I wanted it to be a good blog. You know, with pictures and such, but it turns out my picture taking skills were no bueno. "How can one possibly pay attention to a book with no pictures in it?" Oh, the pressure!

There I sat on the sidelines, passively watching all my friends have fun with their blogs. Until one day when one of those friends told me she had signed up for a photography class, and so did I. Today we learned how to take "product shots", so I decided to test it out on the necklace I was wearing. It's one I made a while ago (thanks, Nancy, for the pendant). Here are the results:







Yeah, I'm pretty stoaked about those. A vast improvement from previous efforts. I was so excited that I came home a took some more. Of course, the sun light was best for the jewelry pictures, but I took some of my Halloween wreath that just went up yesterday. I made it last year.




Folks, my world has been forever revolutionized!

Great pictures and post! I'm glad you have come out of hiding to share your talents. Where would we be without Bryan Niven?
