It's Day 3 at Make It! The Handmade Revolution and the last day of this fabulous 3 day #makeitshow. I've had so many comments from people saying it's the best show in town and how they love the diverse selection of Makies with something for everyone. I have to pick up the wool dryer balls today. They are supposed to save 40% off drying time, making them great energy savers. Admission is only $5 and if you flash this photo you get $1 off so only $4. I'm in booth #140 and hope you can stop in. Have a great day Everyone! #makeitvancouver #makeitshow #debvdesigns #jewelry #jewellery #enamel #torchfiredenamel #yvrevents #metalartjewelry #wiresmith #metalsmith #silversmith #foldform #repousse via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1XPOpjn

After a very long day, I'm now at home relaxing and hear my bed calling me. Before I check out to get my beauty sleep so I'm nice and refresh for tomorrow, I had to drop in and send a BIG "THANK YOU" to everyone who came by my booth today and to let you know how much I enjoy hearing that you follow me and my journey on FB or Instagram @debVdesigns. Your ongoing support truly inspires me. Make It! The Handmade Revolution #makeitshow #makeitvancouver #debVdesigns #jewelry #vancity #vancouver Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1vf4iSm

I've been up since 7 and have so much to do today and have congestion on my chest. Hope a little vicks helps and it doesn't turn into anything nasty. I have a list of errands to do before setting up for Make It! The Handmade Revolution and thought I'd throw another little teaser your way with these earrings. Would love to hear your feedback. #makeitshow #makeitvancouver #debVdesigns #jewelry #enamel #earrings #fashion #women via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1Vn3M52

Just had a quick bite and before heading back to the studio I wanted to share this beautiful enameled cross I made. I only made one of these and the colors are beautiful and I'll be taking it to the Make It! The Handmade Revolution this weekend.  #cross #religion #religious #debVdesigns #makeitshow #makeitvancouver #pendant #jewelry via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1YI0KWW

Paper Mache Displays work better when they are weighted down!   Let me show you how. I've never liked the velvet displays as they are hard to pack and show up lint, especially when photographing jewelry on them.  During my search for something better, I came across these macrame bust displays which are a heck of a lot better to pack for shows.  The nestle into each other tightly vs. being so bulky.  The only drawback was that they were light and could easily topple over.  My dear husband (DH) came up with a way to weight them down and I've been using them for over a year now and they work perfectly (for me anyway). Here's a quick video on weighing them down.

Original Alcohol Ink on Glass Focal Necklace This was part of my studio time the other day.  The inks result in so many original one of a kind patterns and this is one of three pieces I've designed.  I plan to make an annealed steel chain and clasp to go with.  It will be available on my website when finished. via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1KIY0RQ

One of a kind original art Inked Glass set in Bezel with Bail That's the beauty of ink art, the patterns achieved can never be duplicated. #debVdesigns via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1KIY2t0

Today is here and it's the first day (of 3) for the Vancouver Island Bead and Jewelry Show at the Croation Center. For all the details, go to www.vibjs.ca My DH is starting to load the vehicle for the show and I have a few more things to gather in the studio, then off we go. My affirmation for the day is "I am in charge of how I feel and today I feel happiness". Wishing all vendors and shoppers a great weekend. via Deb V Designs http://ift.tt/1FC0Wx9
