Hi!  I’m Amy, aka One Artsy Mama, and I’m excited to be here at Cheap Crafty Mama today!  Kate and I actually have a lot in common; we’re both stay-at-home mamas who love crafting with our toddler sons, blogging, and making jewelry. Today, we thought it would be fun to swap blogs; Kate is over at One Artsy Mama with a “loopy turquoise earring” tutorial, and I’m here to share with you a little about myself and one of my favorite jewelry techniques!  As for me, I’ve been married to my best friend and dance partner for almost 10 years now, and we have an adorable 3-year-old son, my “Little Crafter” who lights up our lives.
