Sacred Art Pop Up Saturday

Part of the fun of being a maker is discovering all the boutiques that support artisans in Chicago. Last November Sacred Art had my Angels in the shop, and in late May I took some pendants and plant stakes there. On Saturday, June 10 from 11 am to 3 pm I will have a Pop […]

Affair of the Arts Spring Show

Etsy Refresh

Valentine’s Day is coming up so it is time to review my jewelry inventory. With 238 pieces of jewelry in stock that is more time consuming than anticipated.

Maike’s Maraviglia out and about

The Morpho Butterfly wax and wire […]
