<b>I have always loved Trees. </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>My mother used to take me on long walks in the woods</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b> and she would teach me the names of the trees and how to identify them.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>I was especially drawn to the mighty Oak.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>I thought the acorns were just plain cute. :-)</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>So fast forward about 40 years.........</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>I happened across a plaster mold from the 1950s.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>It had Oak leaf shapes and acorns and pine cones.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>I have never figured out why the pine cones were a part of this mold.</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>Maybe just to confuse people?? It worked. hehe</b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>ANYway...... I have used it quite a few times in the fall. </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>But I have never glazed them this way. </b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>I left the tops (the <span style="background-color: white; color: #333333; font-family: Georgia, 'Bitstream Charter', serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 23px; text-align: left;">cupule)</span><span style="background-color: white;"> of the Acorns without any glaze to show off </span></b></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<b>the Porcelain's natural beauty, and just glazed the bottoms (the nut).</b></div>

Its that time again!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Another Suburban Girl Design Team Reveal!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I started with 2 charms from Diana Ptaszynski and</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
a Beautiful handmade lampwork bead from Jan Onipenco</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And found a few of my tiny roundelles to add to the mix.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4-33wmzQebE/T-3nw4VdP8I/AAAAAAAABfs/x063gH0YsUc/s1600/2012-06-24_18-24-30_89.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="297" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4-33wmzQebE/T-3nw4VdP8I/AAAAAAAABfs/x063gH0YsUc/s320/2012-06-24_18-24-30_89.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So now what? I have some cute pieces. What the heck do I do now? </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
As you all know, I am a Ceramic BEAD Artist. I am SO NOT a jewelry Designer!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I had not a clue, what to do with these. My first thought was to get a huge jump ring, put all of these on it, and hang it from a silk ribbon. What about a clasp, you ask? Tie a knot! I don't know!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Now... remembering the nightmares I had before <a href="http://marlasmudmoments.blogspot.com/2012/03/suburban-girl-studio-design-team.html">the last SGDC </a>,</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I made up my mind that I was gonna ask for help right away and avoid these horrible dreams altogether.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
So I contacted my Designer Friend, <a href="http://www.etsy.com/shop/JoyfulGemsandStones">Jessica Stoops</a>. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I showed her the above picture and just like magic, she had an idea. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
*side note* I really wish I had the same brain cells as all of you designers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Cause, if I did, I could be creating all the perfect components that you all want. :-D</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The first thing she tried to explain to me was how to make </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
one of these looparoundthingymaabobbers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
I remembered that I had taken a class with <a href="https://www.facebook.com/susan.schwartzenberger">Susan Schwartzenberger</a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
at the S<a href="http://stonycreekbead.blogspot.com/">tonyCreek Bead Store</a>. Susan did her VERY best to teach me how to work with wire. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
And I really enjoyed her class. But, I am just not cut out for Jewelry Designing Greatness.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Sooooo.....</div>
