New Pendants for Indian Summer

I’m enjoying an extended birthday celebration, but also had time to make a few new pieces in the studio recently.  Inspired by Bead & Button, I finally incorporated some pieces from prior Milwaukee trips. My new ovals are particularly inspiring. A tiny oval helped me create this wrap around a vintage rose pendant. I wanted […]

New Pendants at Sacred Art

The other day I visited Sacred Art and we noticed only one pendant was left from my inventory there. So of course I tagged a few more to bring in from my latest batch. I am a bit attached to some of these, but I know they will fly off to good homes. Meanwhile, quite […]

Witchy Studio

I meant to get my travel blog started but I had too much fun in the studio. Halloween is coming, and I picked up some napkins in Germany to expand the collection from last year. So I set about wrapping wire based on the designs. I used the Now That’s A Jig! Big rounds to […]

Earrings for Ear spools

When I had my pop-up at Chroma K8, she mentioned the need for different types of ear hooks to safely stay in her ear spools. I had ordered some clip-on loops, and those seemed to work with a trial run. However, of the three pairs one didn’t function, so I perused the Bead & Button […]

No Frills Fun Run is an annual charitable run that was started in 2012 by two local moms in Elmhurst, Illinois. On February 28, participants will run  a half-marathon or half-half distance (6.55 miles) to benefit one family in […]

A Merry Year-end

It’s been fun to create new goodies for my friends this season. Their inspiration has sparked my creativity, and I have more spin-offs in my head from the pendants and ornaments ordered for their loved ones or themselves. My chunky beaded bangle got a few admirers, and fortunately Dakota Beads had two more strands for […]

Ghosts, Spiders and Witches abound

I’ve been spooking up the studio with some wax and wire Halloween pendants. I picked out purple and orange papers to embellish with rubber stamps. Then I wrangled some wire to fit the images I fired up the griddle and covered the paper in encaustic medium. Now they’re ready to be worn by new owners! […]

Summer Selfies

It’s time for some Summer Selfies as I process numerous photos from my August travels. The Yellow Agate Set visited a few stores this quarter while the pink flower wax and wire pendant was admired during NEW’s recent Meet & Munch. I paired it with infinity earrings. in May I wore various Mother’s Day Pendants […]

Where the River Shannon Flows pendants

I got some studio time in recently and decided to add more musical pendants to my inventory (they keep selling out). I’ve just about used up the Irish Rose music sheet I received from a friend.  The song is really called: Where the River Shannon Flows. There’s a pretty spot in Ireland I always claim […]
