I swore I wasn't going to do this. But after reading everyone's Best of/Favorites List of 2011, I said what the heck. So I'll be sharing a few of my favorite projects from 2011, along with the top three most popular posts for the year. I do hope you get to check them out if you haven't seen them already.
Here are the three most popular posts.
And here are some of my favorite projects of 2011.
(Ya better strap in, I couldn't decide!)
It saddens me that I've shared so little of my vintage jewelry designs this past year. I guess the home decor/DIY bug got the best of me. I do want to keep up the thrifting, repurposing, painting, etc., but I also want to get my jewelry design mojo back again! I will say that what once was Charm Bracelet Diva really did become Charm Bracelet Diva {@ Home}. And that's OK. As a matter of fact, don't be surprised if there's a (minor) blog name change in the works for the new year! And maybe even a blog format change. (No, not Wordpress! Just a more professional look.) Regardless of what's in store, I hope you'll all follow along and continue to inspire me with your comments, friendship, talent and kindness.
It's been a great year, friends. Here's to an even better 2012.
Happy New Year!
xoxo

I know what you are saying - I strayed from my original reasons for blogging long time ago. Still have not decided which direction I need to take.
Hope you have enjoyed the Holiday season.
Kathleen you are a WONDER! I'm always inspired by the beautiful projects you share!
And change is good! I look forward to see which changes you'll make. If I don't "see" ya before hand HAPPY NEW YEAR to you and your family! Vanna
You have got so many beautiful things! Stopping by from Someday Crafts! Happy New Year!
I've just recently discovered you, and your art is beautiful. I love the charm bracelets, especially the vintage sheet music one...the charms, the meaning of all of it. I love the addition of the beads and pearls--so girly, and fun!
I think I do understand about the jewelry 'mojo' not being there. I'm a quilter and got into altered books to do something different. Now, it's like I don't like quilting as much...i panicked, thinking, 'what's wrong? Will I never quilt again?' No, part was all the chaos in my studio, and unfinished projects!
Once I got in there a couple times to make a Christmas gift or two, the quilting mojo returned! I think your 'charming self' will as well! Happy New Year!
Kathleen, All of your projects are wonderful and I especially love your beautiful jewelry! Happy 2012 to you and yours.
Hugs,
Sherry
