How can I create designs for jewelry?

You may notice that I haven't written in here for almost a year.  My Mom has still been creating jewelry, but I haven't been helping much.  I'm pretty old now, and I don't feel that well, so I just sleep a lot.  But my Mom took this picture yesterday that perfectly illustrates my relationship with the little boy that she adopted last year. He's gotten better, but he still is always trying to get us to play with him.  I'd think he'd know by now that we girls don't want to be bothered by a little boy.  **sigh**

Also I thought I'd throw in a picture of one of the most recent things that my mom made.

It's getting colder so we'll be inside more often designing jewelry

It's that time of year when it's chilly outside and it gets dark so early!  Looks like my time outside eating grass is coming to an end.  :<  So I'll be spending more time sleeping and helping my Mom with her jewelry.  She had things spread out all over the bed tonight - there was barely room for me!  (What was she thinking??)
I'm having fun helping her choose pictures to put on chains for necklaces.  She cuts out tiny pictures of animals and sticks them on a square and then puts that on a necklace.  I haven't designed one with myself on it yet, as that will have to be as beautiful as me.  But we did make one with the little boy and one with my partner Scully.  Here is one we made of the little boy.  Since he's a boy I thought it was okay to put it on a more plain necklace.

I'll start working on more so I have some beautiful kitty necklaces to show you soon.  Of course all kitties are beautiful, at least that's what my Mom says.

Hi, I'm writing for Buddy today

My name is Max.  You may have read something that Buddy wrote about me.  I've only been here since July.  I've been trying to make friends with the 4 other cats who live here, but they haven't been very receptive.  I want to play with them, but most of the time they run away from me.  Or they hiss and growl and swat at me.  They're all bigger than me, so I'm a little afraid of them.  I've figured out I'm much faster than them, though!  I guess being little helps me to run faster.  No matter where they run, I'm right behind them.  AND I can squeeze under dressers and they can't, so if they get pissed at me I can hide.
I like it when I get to go outside.  There's so much more to do there.  Lots of bugs to chase, trees to climb, places to explore...  I can spend all day outside.  But I like being inside, too, especially to sleep.  I have a nice cushy pink bed that reminds me of my kitty mom.  It feels like being at her belly and nursing.  I don't know where she is now, so I'm making the best of my new family.  Someday soon I think these other cats will realize how charming I am and then they'll want to play all of the time.  I can't wait!
Nice to talk to all of you!
Max

Oops - It's custom dog jewelry, too, and I forgot to post a pic of one of the pendants

Here's a sample of one of the necklaces my mom made.  I'm sure there's some good reason it's not a picture of me.  It's that annoying black kitten again.  I guess she needs a more glamourous pendant for ME.

Someone tell me how to get rid of this annoying new kitten!

He scares me.  He has so much energy and runs around constantly.  He chases me & swats at my butt with his paws.  And my mom is paying way too much attention to him.  I don't know why she thinks he's so cute.  I hate having attention taken away from me!  I've started spending more time playing with her beads.  At least that way I get her attention.
My Mom told me that in October she's going to do something called a promotion.  The 25th person to sign up to follow this blog will get a free pair of earrings!  You can choose any earrings in her Etsy shop.  The 50th person will get a free necklace.  For that you can choose 1 of the necklaces shown in the Necklace page of this blog.  To follow, just click the Follow button on this page.    If you have any questions about this post a comment and we'll post the answer.
Okay, so here's a picture of this annoying kitten.  Can any of you tell me why my mom thinks he's so cute?

New addition to my design team

A few weeks ago my human mom brought home an annoying, tiny black kitten.  I don't know where he came from, but he's driving me crazy!  He follows me around everywhere, tries to get me to play with him, eats my food, sleeps in my spots, and takes up too much of my mom's attention.  I can't imagine why my mom did this.  I just hope that I can get him to help out with the jewelry design business.  If he's going to be here and annoy me he can at least be useful!
