Ah, summer

Well, I am completely cooked. In an effort to improve my photographs for my Etsy site, I decided to shoot outdoors. I am now thinking that it would probably be better to do this before noon as it was blazing hot on the back patio. The jewelry got so hot that I could barely touch it and (despite my extraordinary aversion to pain) I am not generally sensitive about picking up hot things. Those earrings pushed my limits. Here's hoping it was worth it!
