Preparing for Etsy
I am feeling pretty excited the past few days! My kitchen table is hopelessly scattered with supplies, but I’ve knocked off a few things, and photos for Etsy are coming along nicely! (I have such lovely, lovely, talented and wonderful friends.) Of course, a little light reading interspersed here and there is never amiss ;)
Here Comes The Sun
This picture is ‘old’ now – taken the day my daughter had her tonsillectomy – but I dust it off and polish it like a talisman in my mind’s eye, a pocket of calm oasis amidst the storm. A moment caught in the sun, being proud of who IÂ am, and naught else more.
Unfortunately, life is still kicking butt and taking names, but I’d like to think I’ve been through the worst of it.
What Once Was Old…
…be made new again.
Eight years ago in university, I created a sculpture of a dragon descending to survey its territory. This became a source of pride and embarrassment, as much as it survived as a source of consternation. A lot of time was devoted to its creation, but what do you do with a two and a half foot display?
Fiddling with pendants
I have been busy toying with bezels and wire wrapped pendants the last few days… to varying degrees of satisfaction and completion.
Chain maille bracelets and wire wrapped pendants
The first of many to come…
In January, I was invited by family to attend a chain maille class at Poco to learn helms weave, and it has quickly grown into portents of things to come.Â
