Kelly is Kool!

Okay, so here's the deal---I met Kelly (Kelly Berkey Designs) in Suzi  Blu's class.  She makes wonderful jewelry, and she took Suzi's   class to learn more about creating faces, and then putting them into charms to make very unique jewelry pieces.  Well as an added bonus, she discovered that she loves the world of mixed media, but is fairly new to it.  So I've been helping her out with questions that's she has about different techniques and art supplies. 

Her art has really started to blossom  and now she is starting to sell her art pieces as well as her jewelry on Etsy. So  she wanted to thank me, which was so sweet of her.  Do you remember these two?

Well, will you just look at what she sent me for helping her out--



Are these beautiful or what?  I wish that you could all see them and touch them in person--they are gorgeous!   And you know she really didn't have to do this--I love helping anyone who wants it........but  I'm glad she did : )

She will do this for anyone who wants--your art in a pendant, and by the way--these are 2-sided.   When you reverse them, there's an image on the other side too--whatever you want it to be.  This is also a great way to get your art out there in a subtle way.   Ladies always love to admire each other's jewelry, and this would be a great lead-in of your own art.   PLUS, she does sell wholesale AND she will also do personal photos too.   So hop on over to Kelly's blog--http://kellyberkeydesigns.blogspot.com/  and from there, you can go to her Etsy store and also her email is on her sidebar on her blog.   Thank you dear Kelly--this means so much to me!

You are such a sweet friend and your advice to Kelly really paid off (in more than jewelry, I suspect). It's always so much fun to be able to reflect on how much you were able to teach, inspire, or advise people. It's also nice to share your knowledge with someone who blossoms from it. What an inspirational post.

Hi! I made a purchase today from you at the Festival of Arts in Westlake. (I was the girl that told you about my sid Dickens art that I collect. You can check out my blog at: siddickensaddiction.blogspot.com) I love my new piece of art (Blue block with girl and butterflies) and look forward to collecting more from you in the future. If you get that etsy shop open please let me know so I can add it to my favorites. (Email: Free2BeMe350z@oh.rr.com) I am heading over to Kelly Berkey's blog spot next to check out those awesome necklaces you showed me that she makes!
