On the work front, I have so many fabulous commissions! My clients really are the greatest people. Diamonds are the flavour of the month and I have a record number of impressive engagement rings on the go at the moment. I also have a little exhibition running in the Museum of the Riverina's "Makers' Space" Wagga Wagga. My exhibition runs until Sunday 5th August and I promise to do a blog post to tell you all about it soon.
This month saw my little blog discovered by the editor of Australia's 'Jewellers Trade Magazine' and in the June issue, one of my stories will be published. May also brought with it an invite to 'Bowerbird Bazaar, Adelaide's Design Market' and I am very much looking forward to my July trip over to South Australia.
My personal life was full of joy and excitement this month too. I successfully pulled off a surprise 30th birthday party for hubby. A swag of his school and work mates made the trip to town for the party which included a weekend of paintballing, delicious food and more than a few drinks. It was great to catch up with some old friends and now I can tick paintballing off the bucket list too.
I am continuing to take a photo every day with the 'Instagram' app (for those who want to play along, find me under user name the_jeweller). Compiling the photographs at the end of each month is a source of great enjoyment for me. Here is my May in photographs.
So what is on the agenda for June? Work, work and more work. Yes, I know that this goes against my whole 'balanced work and personal life' ethos. But in saying that, I have A LOT to do. There are plenty of commissions to get on with and I desperately need to build up Japonicity's stock levels. I also need to work on continuing to keep clean and orderly living and working environments. Last but not least I am determined to shift some more of that excess weight. Amongst all of that work, I am sure I will find plenty of joy and I look forward to sharing it all with you. Bring on June!
Love from The Jeweller. xx
