Thank You Lord!

I hope everyone is good and well!

This is my second day going online after the deluge.What a week that was,its memory will remain with us until our old age.We have just actually moved here in Cainta last June (the village's gate was still Cainta but the house is on Antipolo area already,we pay our tax in Ant City)after acquiring it 3 years ago.Our street had never been flooded and no history about it until that fateful Saturday.

It was like reminiscent of our probee training in Tanay,raining and brown muddy water,only this time its pouring hard and the brown water was flash flood right infront of our street and not some pond.Only this time,we have our kids with us and not our M16 to do the river crossing,as that has become of our street!It was quick thinking of my hubby to cross the street towards our neighbor's 3-storey house,which as even it was raining hard he still managed to asked permission if he can bring the kids in.

The water was below knees inside the house ,but was chest-deep on the street while we were on it,thats the only time I had a sense of danger coz the water was so strong already I feared for my kids.But I'm so proud of my 2 girls for they didnt fear the water and had actually enjoy the river-crossing!

There are a lot of things left that went under flood water cellphones,laptop,valuable papers,the materials I'm working on in our dining table, even the basic appliances we placed on top of our tables were not spared.The water rosed upto waist-level inside the house as we found out the next morning(though water had subsided by that time)the evidence was showned in the the wall marks.

It was terrible!but there are still a lot to thank for like being alive,like having everyone in the family safe(bro and family lives in Town & Country which was 7 feet deep w/ flood ), neighbors ready to extend help,classmates who responded to our needs so quickly(thanks to PNPA tagapagbuklod class of '89),family friend who lends his car,a friend who lends his laptop so I can multiply again!for the million stories of courage and generosity and for my kids and my hubby of course( I told him buti nalang ikaw asawa ko!)Thank you Lord!

Thank you for the chance to get our life back to normalcy.

Victorian Goth


These cameos had been laying around since July,for some reason I just didnt have all the materials available for me, as cameos and settings came from different suppliers.But then they're great finds so I have to wait for those settings and vice versa ,I wont settle for raw brass settings which are available in my supply site since I had vowed to used oxidized materials as possible coz they don't change their colors compared to goldplated ones.

I have just finished working on them including posting them in my multiply site.I'm glad also my mto's finished on time or else I will be contributing to the growing excitement & tension of our pretty bride-to be( I got to meet her just yesterday!) and a debuntant!

Right now I'm working on a collection for pre- Christmas season(fall if you must say) including the one on the photo ,lots of glass beads - black and red! I'm thinking of purple for Christmas.

I'm not preparing for any bazaar just yet,but I'm planning to join by October and have a grand sale or perhaps open our house for this purpose,I dont know yet.

RELIC


These set had been hanging around unfinished for the longest time,finally they're done and ready to go to their future owners.Religious- inspired beaded necklace though not so exact number of beads as in your Holy rosary/chaplet is the theme of this very limited collection.

The Virgin Mary Glass cameo is a vintage online find(this the one I wrote sometime in April in multiply that I saw in Rustan's Makati selling for 5900++ for a pendant only,set in brass ox setting similar to 3rd pendant in the photo).

The St.Therese decal on resin cameo arrived just this June from Canada,from my ol reliable source there.You may also opt to have it in simple setting not in locket form,just let me know.

NEW Cameo Rings!


Can't help but blog about these rings already,all cameos are hard to find with 1 Lady w/ cherub will be the most sought after especially for those who have the necklace on hand!Sad to say I only have 1 pc each.

June is going to be exciting as I will have new cameos coming both in my jewelry and supply stores!Thats the word exciting coz thats what I feel everytime I have new to offer!

NEW this June-Handpainted Cameos





This June offering are handpainted cameo jewelry.They're made of acrylics,as in your regular cameos,what makes them extra special is that they were handpainted by a real artist,please see how detailed her painting on each cameos,they're not just colored brushed but careful attention to details were taken to make each figure more vivid.Rhinestones were added also to make more glam.I think these are the "now"modern time's cameos,made-up and adorned like us ladies!
