The Lens on Maggie's Studio

Come on in and see what I'm up to!

This lens is meant to be an overview of what is going on in my "studio" (ok, it is my dining room table and a table in the bedroom for sewing!). I create jewelry and other beaded items and sewn items like necktie bags, eyeglass cases, recycled jeans purses and an occasional quilted bag. I have my own website, an Ebay store and an etsy store.

Earrings Every Day!

Check out this group blog I belong to. The name pretty much says it all. The intro has a great quote "I think of Earrings as little poems - a true condensed version of a person's style and mood all summed up in usually 2 inches or less. Let's see earrings every day!" It's true! Earrings every day can make you a little bit happier!

Where I'm Shopping!

Here are the most recent places I've found products to buy!

Scarborough Seashells: I got a really fabulous seaglass pendant from Scarborough Seashells on Ebay! She has a rainbow of seaglass colors and also sells bracelets and earrings.

Scarborough Seashells also has some great shells for crafting, and I recently got some fabulous red coral beads from her!
Lifestoriesbooks Handmade Book Blog: I found a seller, Lifestoriesbooks.etsy.com, she makes fabulous hand bound journals! I have bought two from her already as gifts! She incorporates beads on the spine and uses some handmade papers too!
Country Heart Gifts: Check out the new line of sugar scrubs! I can't wait to try them.

I also have to say I got a raspberry lip balm free with some soap I bought from COuntryheart Gifts and it is my favorite lip balm I have ever used. It makes your lips feel soft but not gooey.

I have been using her bath salts, which smell great, for a long time- my favorites are Strawberry Margarita and Georgia Peach.
