What's Willy Building?

This is Willy, our trusty contractor. And this is our house. Well, technically, part of our garage.


I'm sure my regular readers have noticed that I have been remiss in offering my usual monthly giveaways these past few months. The only excuse I have is extreme busyness (is that a word?)... but I'm ready to get back on track. I like to make you work for your prizes (especially by guessing random and obscure things about my life - hmm, self-centered much?), so here's your assignment - leave a comment on this post guessing what Willy is doing to our house. After a few weeks, I will randomly choose from those of you who guessed correctly and one of you will win $25 to spend in either my bead shop or my jewelry shop.

The fine print: If you know me in real life and I've already told you what's going on, no guessing for you!!!

    I think that Willy is turning your garage (or at least part of it) into a bead room.

    Ok I know you in real life but you haven't told me what you're doing. Turning part of your garage into an official jewelry making/business running studio?

    Hi! I have just stumbled upon your Etsy shop and now your blog.

    Your work is absolutely breathtaking. I hope you are having Willy build you an amazing studio for your beautiful jewelry creations.

    I concur with Sara and Jamie. It has to be for your jewelry shop. If so, how exciting!!

    I'm guessing Willy is building a play room for Carlos?

    I also think it's to give you the extra space for your jewellery business!

    It seems to be almost a consensus that he's building you *a new studio space*, which is my guess as well.

    Is he building a workshop for your silversmithing? (If so, I'm jealous!) :P

    It's going to be your studio or a play room for Carlos.

    I had no idea there would be such a unanimous consensus! Maltese, I was surprised no one guessed that sooner. Not saying it's right (or wrong), just that I'm surprised no one else has guessed it. :-)

    Greetings from Charleston, South Carolina -- about 5 miles from the Atlantic Ocean. I hope by now Willy has made GREAT progress on your secret project. I so hope it's a new silversmithing studio so that you will have the room and space to continue creating your awe-inspiring works of art! My dear friend adopted a son from Guatemala eight years ago and calls him her angel sent from above. Best to you and Carlos! Maria
