Thankful November

Being thankful, grateful, and appreciative are concepts that should be recognized throughout the year, not just one month or one day out of the year.  Being thankful is the topic of the month with the upcoming holiday.

There are many things in this world I am thankful for, way more than I could list because it would take waaaaayyy too long!  Here are just a few:  I am extremely thankful for my loving fiance, my family and friends, having food, shelter, clothes to wear, and especially to be ALIVE!
Try and think of a different thing each day of the month that you are thankful for.  It may not seem like a lot but I bet by the end of the month you will have more than 30 things.  I find that the more I recognize and the more I am thankful for, the littler problems seem to be and I end up smiling more.  The more I smile, the more I have to be thankful for and the circle goes round from there. :)

I am also very thankful to have the opportunity to share my love of art and my work through my blog.  There has been increasing interest in my pieces on here, on Etsy, and through people I know.  A friend of mine at work, bought her boyfriend's mom a bracelet and a matching pair of earrings for her birthday and she loved them!!  She is a teacher in Vermont and she has been receiving many compliments on them from her colleagues!  When I heard that, it put the biggest smile on my face!  It makes me happy that something I have a passion for others are able to enjoy.

The winner of my Shades of Pink Flower painting sent me a picture of the painting hanging in her house and I was told how much she enjoys having it.


I'm so glad I got this picture so I could FINALLY show you the final piece!

Lately, a lot of my concentration has been on making jewelry because the holidays are coming and I am going to have a table at the URI Bazaar (Providence location) on Dec. 4th.  I have already sold a bunch of pieces so I have been trying to make lots of different ones!
Here are some of the newer pieces:





 I bought some gold wire, now I have gold, silver, and copper wire to twist with.


















I hope you are enjoying these as much as I am!  Let me know if you have any questions or would like any of them:  savviedesigns@gmail.com.

Don't forget to be thankful!!

Always,
Savannah
