Do you ever wait for the postman?

For the first time since I was a small child, yesterday I found myself waiting excitedly for the postman to drive up to the end of my driveway.  I order jewelry supplies through a group to obtain better prices and thus turn around to give better prices on my jewelry to the public.  After checking my emails I realized my first big order from a particularly awesome distributor was to be delivered today.  I also had quite a few supplies in the order that I was going to be using for Christmas gifts, so if it came today, then I would have one day more to work on some of my jewelry gifts.

It felt like I was a little kid again.  Who would have thought that at the age of 50#$>..,$%* you could get excited and feel that way again.  So now you know, order something online, something you really want and you too can feel like a child again.

Thanks for reading and have a great day!

Today is the First day of the rest of my Blog!

December 13, 2011

My first day!  I will introduce myself for those of you who have not met me.
My name is Carolyn Turner.  I am proud to be a member of the First Nations tribe called the Gitxsan.  Our tribe originates in the Northwest coast of Canada.  That is where my mother was born and raised.

I strive to make my jewelry contain a native flair to each piece whenever possible.  I use natural gemstones in most of my work. I also love to do leatherwork whenever possible.  Right now I am spending most of my time making one of a kind, unique pieces of jewelry.  I drop everything if I get a custom order in for leatherwork.  Such as moccasins, mukluks and native apparel.

I will update you more of my background as I go.  For today, I think this is enough. 
I will say, I love what I do and spend an enormous amount of time and effort in the planning of any piece of work I do. Making jewelry and gifts is my lifelong hobby. If you rush whatever it is that you are doing, then it will look rushed. Thanks for reading today.
