Yesterday I picked up my Kedzie’s Red Admirals diptych from the Ecology Center as one part of the Adult Show & Tell Show closes.

But you’ll see me wear and can peruse fun pieces at NEW’s Crain’s Small Business Week Event on Wednesday. My Chakra Bangle and Twinsy Dancing Spirals are with me most often. The Morpho Butterfly wax and wire […]
