I'm here!

Wow, sorry it's been so long. Nothing is more annoying than someone starting a blog and then never updating it.

The holdiays were a big zoo- I started a new job and placed all of my rosaries into a retail shop here in
Drumheller, so I've fallen really behind on updating my website. I took a few weeks off of making rosaries in December (aside from a few custom pieces), but I've got 4 brand new rosaries to post on www.avamaxine.etsy.com as soon as I get them photographed.

The good folks at Riverside Value Drug Mart in Drumheller have been kind enough to make space for my rosaries in their shop. They've got such a wide variety of things there- it might sound unlikely to sell rosaries in a drug store, but you have to see all of the neat stuff they sell. It totally works! It's good to have friends with retail space :)

I also had the good fortune of discovering Ebay- seriously. I'ma gonna need me an intevention. But I found the BEST stuff online- semi-precious stones that I've never seen before, vintage rosaries that I can rebuild. Drooool.

One of my new favourite kind of stones is picasso jasper: PRETTY!


I also bought some green turquoise. I'll post more once I get back into the swing of things.
