Beautiful Things the way you want them

Costume jewelry is one of the many things that I like. Not only buying it, I enjoy making unique pieces. Customers will ask for certain colors, certain styles or even bring you a picture of something that they saw when they were on vacation. The most difficult was a sketch of a design and I could not make heads or tail of the sketch. But I was able to come up with something that made my customer very happy. 

The image below is the finished product. I made earrings with clusters of Swarovski crystals, each was wire wrapped individually to form a cluster. Three shades of yellow.

Brain Fog

I am sure there are many out there that have gone thru this. What did you do to help you regain focus? or what did you do to deal with this?

The last few months has been extremely exhausting. I just can't think clearly and just can't get into the groove of creating. I have much to work on, tons to organize and lots to finish. Well the month is not over. I have faith in myself I will get it going again. This is not how I wanted to start the year, but hey things do happen. I just have to figure out where to start.

I look forward to your comments
