Living Social Offer for VistaPrint

For anyone in need of affordable, quality printed products such as business cards, magnets, etc, I received an offer today on Living Social for VistaPrint--$10 for $50 worth of printing--and purchased it.  Immediately, too, I might add.

I have been using VistaPrint printing services for both of my businesses, Good Girl Designs-The Fun Art of Susan Calvert and Efficient Technologies Group for quite some time.  I have been very pleased with the results from every order. Their customer service is outstanding too. Please let both companies know I sent you when they ask how you located them at the end of your order.

Re-Inspiration Store Voted Atlanta's Best Gift Store

I visited Re-Inspiration Store to check out my art and the new store reset.  Wow!  The store looks fantastic!

I heard some great news while there too.  Re-Inspiration Store is Atlanta's best new gift store as voted by the readers of Atlanta Magazine in the December 2010 issue.  Congratulations to owners, Brooke and Julie!  I am truly honored to have my art in your groovey store.

Re-Inspiration store features hand made art from artists re-purposing and re-cycling everyday objects that most folks might throw away.  Here is a short video showing re-inspired art:


Re-Inspiration Store is located in the Midtown neighborhood at:

810 Huff Road
Atlanta, GA  30318
(404)352-1971


You will find my hand made soldered heart pendent necklaces (pictured above) as well as my whimsical microscope glass pendant necklaces (pictured below) available for purchase at Re-Inspiration Store.




PS: Even though Lucy is modeling this necklace I created about chocolate, she is not allowed to eat the stuff. Click here to read a list of toxic foods for dogs.

New Tools!

I just finished ooooohing and aaaaahing upon opening the package of new tools Santa Steve and his little reindog, Lucy, gave me for Christmas. Oooooh!  Aaaaah!  A new set of Sears, Craftsmen, Evolv 6 piece mini pliers to use when creating my hand soldered jewelry.  New tools for the New Year!

I like the pliers too because they are bright slime green.  Everyone knows they're mine. What am I talking about.....  ALL the tools in this household are mine. Hubby complains at me for using his tools all the time. Now I have my own.  Do you think this was a plan of his???  Naaaaah, he only had me in mind.  LOL!

So here are a few pics of my fun, artsy soldered pendants that I use the tools for while creating them:




These pendants and more are are available for purchase on my website and at my Artfire studio.
