Allure

It seems that my average post time on DITB is every two months. Hopefully I can change that, especially now that I have a temp job where I literally do 1 hour's worth of work from 8 to 5. Never thought this level of boredom was possible!



About a month ago, I noticed that my step-dad, Bill, made the most beautiful and intricate lures for his fishing expeditions on the Little Red. I knew that he had become obsessed with creating his own lures (my mom rolls her eyes at the hours he spends cooped up in his office), and I'd noticed the boxes upon boxes he filled with mysterious and colorful fishing supplies. But I had no idea how cool his creations really were! As soon as I saw them, I made him a business deal--he'd provide production, and I'd make the jewelry line, which is to be titled Allure. I am too scared to Google search my idea and find that it's already taken!

I have only made a few necklaces so far, for family members and friends, but here's a shot of one I made for Elizabeth:





P.S. Bass Pro Shop is a scary place! Have a good week!
