Wild Thing Charm Swap

About two weeks ago I joined a new swap group that swaps hand made charms.The name of the group is Art Charms,a Yahoo group.I wasn't sure of what to make until I was going through my totes I have packed up and found this necklace...
I always thought it was ugly but then I usually buy jewelry to make other jewelry out of it.I liked the beads and they were made of bone.The swap called for 15 charms to be swapped out and you get 15 different ( hand made by others )in return.The three porcelain monkey charms I made extra for the Hostess Elizabeth.

Well I went out and took some pictures I thought would look great for a grunge back round.

I tried to change the color and the direction of the photo but for some reason they are not saving as I had them,the right side of this picture should be on the bottom.Any how here are a few more and I hope you can save them to use for what ever you might need,freely.

How long has it been?

I haven't added a post in sooo long It is hard for me to get started.So much has happened since I left my husband over a year ago.I was happy to see I could still stand on my own two feet.Fear has been my worst enemy.Fear of starting a new job,having my own place,paying my own bills.And yet the freedom of just having my own choices keeps me happy.I have been working on some art projects but not like I used to.I have just been dabbling here and there making little things.It's enjoyable to see my family again after being cut off from them for over ten years.That is one of the reasons I left my husband ,ten years of him controlling me.Wow the big city has changed,I go crazy when I go to a craft store.So much new stuff!The little town I live in is south of Columbus about an hour.I love some of the old style houses here in town and will get out to take pictures.Right now I should be out in the woods looking for mushrooms.Morels are one of my favorite.Looking for them is like Easter egg hunting,such a thrill.
