Wish

I look at my daughter and strangely, as if time has frozen, it suddenly hits me: She’s three. When did she start looking like a little lady rather than a baby? Perhaps it’s right now that she’s begun looking so mature and grown up. Or perhaps it’s happened and I am just noticing it right now. I don’t want to miss anything new in her life; any new experiences both physical and emotional. I know one day she will become a woman with her own life to lead and the best I can do for her then is give her advice and support her dreams. As a parent all I really want is for her to follow her dreams and be happy. I know she will make mistakes and hopefully learn from them, have her heart broken probably more than once and be pressured into doing things she may not want to. All I can do is give her the love, encouragement and support to help her make right decisions that lead her to her Happy Ending. And by Happy Ending I really mean her beginning as a woman in love…
Yeah, I’ve been watching “Once Upon A Time” on CTV (Sundays @ 7!!!) and then AGAIN on Demand throughout the week in anticipation for the next episode. Our lives really are like a story written in a book. Maybe not with witches and fairy godmothers and trolls but one can definitely make parallels with the Fairy Tale creatures to the people in ones life. There’s always a wicked witch or some other form of evil trying to stop you from getting to your Happy Ending. One can also compare the evil creatures in Fairy Tales to real-life struggles and battles, whether emotional or physical, that one must overcome or conquer in order to keep the story going and reaching your goals. I guess that’s why the show appeals to me so much. But the underlying matter is that we all write our own books; we all have control over our own lives. Our outcome is based on the decisions we make and we have the power to change our lives; to make it what we want it to be. We have the power to write our own chapters of our lives. Things don’t always go as we plan but that’s why our book is written in pencil: we can erase the mistakes and make changes.
With all that said…………….. I have dedicated 2012 to me, myself and I. I am going to get my ass in gear and get that Teacher’s Aide job somewhere anywhere but hopefully close by. I am going to have my jewelry line take off into the  sky and beyond the Earth’s atmosphere into the Universe. Oh yeah. It’s BIG time. No more screwing around. I am actually going to try this “schedule” thing. Maybe structure is what I really need. It will happen. And if you stick by to see it happen I don’t think you will be disappointed…
Here’s what’s been up with YOURS ONLY in the last few months via photos (I haven’t blogged in such a long time I could probably write a newspaper. Not just an article, the whole thing):
  
FALL 2011 COLLECTION.
  
  
SHOULDER DUSTERS now @ Fall Down Gallery (288 Bank St. Ottawa).
  
MEN’S ACCESSORIES now @ Elephant Shoes (1342 Bloor St. West Toronto).
  
GENUINE LEATHER TASSELS, beaded and wrapped, necklace or keychain. 
I promise I will blog again soon. Besides, this is like therapy for me :)
Love, Weronika XOXO

Play time is Silly

A Silly hobbie making Silly band earrings and adding a funky twist. Its fun for all ages young and old I too love to play with silly bands and this is how I play.

For all those who think this is just too silly here is your how to guide on playing  with silly bands.




Step one embrace your inner child and its playful spirit.
Step two find your playful shapes and run with it. That it step one will lead you where you need to go. A fun and simple piece of rubber can be used to create some interesting designs.







Here is the "Sit up and beg doggie" I love the versatility of the rubber because I am able to move the parts of the earring into new and interesting positions. The doggie can aapear to be begging for a treat or going for walkies giving these pair of earrings a 2D design with a 3D vibes






Doggies Feathers Love rainbows and play time has just begone. You haven't seen nothing yet. I dont know where this love or working silly bands into my jewelery will take me but I am not very worry having too much fun and I am beginning to take the hint that Halloween is on its way as fall draws near. So cheer up and have fun with all the serious issues going on in the world it is always a good think to take a silly break and smile.

Treasury loving on Etsy


I jumped head first into Etsy Treasury curatorships and so far so good. So far my experiment into this has been successful for a bunch of shops. So much so that I have to keep it constantly updated due to the sales of items I featured in Braains!, Madly hatty! and Wing ding!. So have a look check out the crazy fun featured shop and see come awesome creations before they get sold. Here is a peak at one of my treasuries and here is how I did this on blogger it took a how to search in google search which led me to these two places. A big thanks to: http://www.handmadeology.com/new-etsy-treasury-tool-quickly-add-any-etsy-treasury-to-your-blog-or-webpage/ and http://www.whalesharkwebsites.com/tools/treasury.php for the awesome simple how to without your help I would be so lost.
