Self-portrait, Philadelphia, July 2010 |
These connections and events like OWOH are especially important to me because I live in a remote, rural area of western New Mexico and don't have the events and shopping and other amenities of civilization that most of you do. (I know all about these, having grown up around Philadelphia and later living in southern California for 7 years...) So, being blessed with wonderful real-life friends and family (my dad lives with me now, and my kids are with me alternate weeks since my ex and I share custody), I am also happy to live in the Internet Age so I can maintain old friendships, make new friends, go back to school (I hope to finish my Masters in marital/family therapy this December), and of course shop, given that the nearest real-life bead shop is 100 miles away!

Again, welcome -- and yes, I have some door prizes!! At the end of this event, on Feb. 17, I'll use a random-number generator to pick 3 winners from among those of you who leave a comment here; just make sure you either use your Google ID or leave an email address so I can contact you. This year's offerings, shown below and selected from my jewelry creations, definitely follow a winter theme and also, of course, a heart theme. Enjoy the event, visit lots of other OWOH participants' blogs, and I'll see you around Blogopolis!

Hello! I'm so glad I found One World One Heart and was able to visit your blog! I'm pretty new to the blogging world and I love seeing the different ways of blogging. I hope you will check out my blog and maybe find something useful there. I'd love to be entered for your door prize, thanks for adding my name to the list!
The Laughing Raven, I cant tell you how much I enjoyed reading about your life now in Rural Western New Mexico. I know Albuquerque all the way to Gallup very well, so I know what you mean no bead shops for 100 miles. Where in western NM do you live? I hope you get a chance to visit my blog Blossoms Bloomers and leave me a note I also make jewelry, not to good on photography but I do love. You have some great photos.

Wow - you're a master blogger, having been going for that long! Your jewellery is beautiful and I'd love to be entered into your drawing. Please feel free to visit my blog too.
Lovely wintry pieces. I've followed your blog, hope to come back again, your jewelry and your photography are both stunning. I suspect we'd have a great time wandering about together with our cameras in hand. What part of New Mexico do you live in? I used to live in Albuquerque and had family up in Santa Fe area. Long ago and many life times in the past it seems. I still miss the blue that only appears in a NM sky.
Ooh those are so pretty! I'm so excited about this OWOH event! I love it, glad u've joined! =)
The jewelry is lovely...I especially like the bird earrings....I just joined at the last minute...
So nice to meet you! What beautiful jewelry you make! Thank you for the chance to enter!

Geez! I don't know where to begin! I've been all over your blog, your etsy, (where I have marked several items...I'll wait to see if by chance my number comes up to figure out what I will go back to buy for myself) Super super work! Your Flicker slide show, which had some of the most spectacular photos ever! Do you sell any of those? And for me the inspiration from your mosaics...well suffice it to say...does plagiarism mean anything to you? ha ha...I may have to take an idea and move it around to fit my style...it was something I had used with a different medium before...but you fine tuned it...(and I'm all about the broken mirror thing)...well you are an all around natural "arteest"...I'm a follower now! Thx for the inspiration...I can't wait to get back to work...luv, june # 75
