First post on SueLacy Wired!

Welcome to my blog, SueLacy Wired.  For my first post, I'm thinking small and easy.   Let's start with a two question self-interview to get at the fundamentals everyone will want to know:  How did you pick your blog name?  What is your favorite color?

How did you pick your blog name?
I love the name SueLacy Wired for a metalsmith's blog.  I use a lot of wire.  The dictionary says it best:

wired
[wahyuhrd]
--adjective

1. made of wire; consisting of or constructed with wires.
2. strengthened or supported with wires.
3. Slang  tense with excitement or anticipation; edgy.
4. connected electronically to one or more computer networks.

Really, need I say more?

What is your favorite color?
I don't have a single favorite color.  It's the mix that really takes my breath away.  Blue with green; sky, trees, ocean.    Individually they are pretty, but together, they are invincible. 

I think that's a good metaphor for life.

What is SueLacy Designs about?
OK, I cheated and added a third question.  I'm really not good with numbers, anyway.

Show Spelled  I'    I’m a jewelry designer and metalsmith living in Dublin, OH.  I most enjoy creating pieces that are completely hand crafted, including basic components like earring wires, chain, clasps, and sometimes the beads.  Favorite materials are sterling silver, fine silver, 14k gold, copper, and gemstones.  Vintage and up-cycled or recycled materials can be really fun, too.    

I have four great daughters and an awesome husband.  I’m an alumnus of The Ohio State University and a constant student of life and the art of jewelry making. 

I hope you drop by now and then.  Please leave comments of your own, too!
