Available Now: Mini Rubberband Earrings

I love making jewelry that is fun, funky and unusual. I like using materials and everyday objects that aren't necessarily your first thoughts when it comes to buying supplies for jewelry making.  I guess you can sometimes I like to think outside the box,  these mini rubberband earrings are definately different.

They are fun to make, and fun to wear.  I came across this idea a couple years ago and spent hours playing with different designs and color schemes, for now only this simple style is available in my shop, but they are cute nonetheless!





Now Available: Fluffy, Puffy Pom Pom Adjustable Rings






Available Now @ www.MardiRobyn.Etsy.com

"Love" Hoop Earrings

Check out the new addition to my jewelry at www.MardiRobyn.etsy.com




Considering the word "Love" is in the center of the hoops, this may sound corny, but I really do love these earrings!    I came across the charms (packaged one to a pack) while shopping at Hobby Lobby and I knew I had to buy two of them to turn into earrings, and they turned out pretty cute if I do say so myself!

Check them out, they can be ordered in my shop! www.MardiRobyn.Etsy.com

My Horses

I am trying to get back into the swing of blogging, so I decided to take a break from adding new jewelry to my shop (www.MardiRobyn.etsy.com) and post some pictures I took Tuesday of my two favorite horses... Shiloh and ShyAnne (aka-Sassy)

                                                                       
                                                                         Shiloh!

I love this picture of ShyAnne (left) and Shiloh (right)  their heads make kind of a heart shape!


Well, back to adding more jewelry to my shop, check it out! (www.MardiRobyn.Etsy.com)

A Glimpse At 2011

Looking back on 2011 one word that comes to mind is…Wow! What an experience it turned out to be. The year flew in a blur but with that blur brought many experiences, challenges and growth that I am thankful for in spite of the struggles. I believe 2011 helped shape me, it feels like one big spurt of growth I won’t forget!

In 2011 I pierced my ears for the first time, became more independent, made friendships, gained best friends, learned more about what it meant to be a friend, saw my business “Mardi Robyn” take off and became not only a national seller but also an international seller to Canada, Australia, Brazil and Norway. I began driving more in 2011 including in the big city of Hattiesburg, which now seems to be such a minor thing, why I ever made it such a mountain I am not sure, other than I tend to over-think some things and make mountains out of mole-hills, a lesson I learned all to well this past year. I learned more being a pharmacy technician, became a certified pharmacy technician, tried new haircuts, had my hair foiled black and caramel, dyed my hair red for the first time, was a Maid of Honor in my friends wedding, changed Churches, got my first professional French manicure, traveled to Branson, Missouri with my parents, It was amazing!! Saw a 50’s show and the Presley’s Jubilee live in person! Got a spray tan, embraced being a girly girl! Met a lot of wonderful people, learned that I still have my backbone. Struggled with my identity but found that I am still me. Regained confidence I thought I lost. Took six months of voice and piano and regained confidence in my ability through Christ to sing and play.
2011 brought about a lot of changes, a lot of growth, a lot of firsts, there have been laughter, sorrow, joy and tears, friendships, love, heartache, pain, happiness and facing fears. Isn’t that what life is all about? It is a journey, an experience, an adventure. 2011 was definitely an adventure. As much as I am thankful for the journey of 2011 I am equally if not more thankful that it is 2012. I look forward to what God has in store for me this year. I’ve caught a glimpse and I’m excited!

What do I have planned? Oh, well we will see! For now I’ll give you a glimpse, develop my business an watch it grow, finish my photography courses. Speaking of education I have enrolled in jewelry design school through correspondence, and this coming week I will be finishing the enrollment process to become a student at a local Junior College, I plan on getting my basics out of the way and focusing on being a full-time nursing student…who would’ve thought?!

Have you reflected over the year 2011? What memories will you cherish, what did you learn, how did you grow? What do you anticipate the year 2012 to hold for you?
Life is an exciting adventure, I’m 25 and it is just begun to blossom into exciting colors beyond my wildest imagination!

Happy New Year 2012! Keep Christ first and focus on Him and He will direct your paths!!


"Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not on thine own understanding, in all thine ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your paths!" ~Proverbs 3:5-6

Blog Post in Pictures


My 25th Birthday cake from my Daddy and Mama! It tasted good!

Duct Tape (Left)  Ribbon (right) that I bought at the store today!  I am thinking about what kind of craft project I can use these for!

                                             Music symbol and owl sticker! Aren't they cute!



I am going to try making a tree!

A brown labrador retriever I bought to hang on our tree when we put it up after Thanksgiving!

One of our customers at work makes these and gives to people because He likes seeing the expression on people's faces when they realize what it says!  Can you see it? Look in between the light pieces of wood.

I'm thinking earrings!!

Hmm, I wonder what I will use these for? (left to right; straws, pipe cleaners, and wooden sticks!)



More ribbon!

Isn't this mini pillow pet cute!

So cute I wanted to take a second picture of it!

Friday a week ago my sister and one of my friends from work and I watched this movie!

The next day my sister and I watched these Shirley Temple movies!

I haven't watched this yet, but I look forward to doing so!

Currently watching this with my Mama!  It is an awesome dvd! I recommend everyone watch it!

The aloe vera plant I bought for my Mama to which my Daddy laughed and said "You have just signed the plants death warrant"  Looks to me like Mama is doing great keeping this plant alive after three months!

Roll Tide!! A birdhouse my sister Kim bought for my Parents!

Red  Bird Christmas ornament I bought for my Mama because she enjoys watching the red birds that perch on the tree limbs in our backyard.


Owl Christmas ornament I bought because I like owls!


Folder I am going to use in a craft project when I figure out what to use it for.


Feathers I bought in September at a Dollar Tree to use for the Crazy Day festival but ended up forgetting about them, now I am trying to decide what to use them for.


Tree I bought Friday at Walgreens that inspired me to want to try and make my own.


Butterflies that was on my birthday cake the people I work with gave me on my birthday! I am suppose to use them in a craft project, headband maybe?


Hope you all have a wonderful week!

Past Due for an Update

Long time no update! Seems to be how I start off a lot of blog posts, atleast in my mind!  I haven't been doing such a good job with blogging lately.  

Last month I had the excitement of doing a craft booth at a local festival, Crazy Day!  It was a lot of fun and sells were better than I expected!   For pictures and details on the event visit the photo album I added to the Mardi Robyn facebook fan page!  http://www.facebook.com/MardiRobynDesigns#!/media/set/?set=a.10150324834126697.347137.193068481696&type=1

I was blessed with a lot of help and ideas from family and friends! Every night for weeks my Mama and I worked on pricing and packaging and her and my Daddy helped set-up and sell jewelry at the festival!  I really am blessed! 

I am working to add everything to my etsy shop (http://mardirobyn.etsy.com/)  so check often for new items!  I have a lot of ideas I want to work on after I list all my jewelry made, so hopefully I will get it all posted soon!

Have a great weekend! 

God Bless!!
