So what's your New Year's resolution? Do you have a single resolution, or many? Is any jewelry-making involved??

Well, if one of your resolutions is to further your jewelry-making career or become more well-known, we may be able to help you out!

Did you know??  Art Jewelry magazine is on newsstands and in subscribers' hands every other month internationally, and sells around 45,000 copies per issue.

That's a lot of potential exposure...

And the best part is that we're always on the lookout for new contributors for projects and articles. (That's where you come in!) To get started, all you have to do is send us a few photos of your work. Click here to learn how to submit your ideas to Art Jewelry magazine. If you're not sure whether your particular style will fit well within our pages, you can check out our Mission Statement by clicking here.

Of course, even if you don't have a jewelry-making resolution, we'd still love to see your work!

To tell you the truth, I'm done with making resolutions myself.  I've grown tired of the whole resolution-making/breaking ritual actually. So this year instead of any sort of resolution, I'm selecting a single word to guide me through 2009. No, I didn't come up with the idea (though I think its simplicity is brilliant); I read about it on Christine Kane's blog.

The idea is that you can apply one word to your life for an entire year in any and every aspect, whether it's family, friends, career, personal life, or artistic pursuits. You can recall your selected word whenever you need a little reminder of where you'd like to be headed. Sort of like a yearly compass.

Anyway, I've been thinking about my word for a number of weeks now. (Hey, it's a big choice after all.) Yet though it's already New Year's eve, I haven't finalized me exact word yet. I'd better get on it, huh?

Any ideas??

Happy New Year!
