I always seem to be coming up with new things to do. Sometimes they work out for me, sometimes they don't.

YAY! I was finally able to come up with a new name for these little gems. It came completely by surprize when I was making labels for the display boxes. I have also recently added color to the final layer of resin, instead of using all black backgrounds. PLEASE keep in mind that a photo of a photo generally comes out a bit grainy. Add to it the fact thst they are embedded in resin, and the pic doesn't justify the quality of the product. Ask anyone who has received one of these pieces, they are crystal clear and in sharp focus in person. More photos coming soon!

I have been experimenting with making molds and casting different resins. The results are not as expected, but I like them just thesame.

Since I make nearly all my own displays, it only makes sense for me to have am album with photos of some of them. Some of these I made recently, some I made years ago. Neccessity is the mother of all invntion...lol.

invntion...lol.

I have been beading and making jewelry to sell for over 20 years. I have an eBay store, and my own website. I am not out to get rich, I just want money to buy more beads. It's an obsession!

Various necklaces and jewelry sets

Another beadwork album. I have been beading VERY long, and I have a huge gallery of photos.

All my handmade rosaries

This is pendants and other single piece work.

While I have made a wide variety of pins in the past, my tastes and methods are always evolving. I started out making pins with wood shapes that I hand painted every detail. I have recently enjoyed making pins with clay, buttons, glitter glue and a special clear coat used in glass and ceramic tile. most pins are approx. 2".

As goes the story....
My 78 year old aunt fell about 18 months ago and broke Both of her wrists at the same time. She had to spend time in a nursing home for obvious reasons. She started making these angels as physical therapy for her injuries. She now lets me sell them for her. She refuses to take any money, so I buy her more angel making supplies and donate any left over money to breast cancer charities. Cool, huh?

I create this work using a stained glass technique and lead free, decorative solder work. It took me well over a year to perfect it, and I now have been selling my work for over 15 years. I also added all my other goblet work to this album as well.

I decided to start taking photos of people who purchased some of my jewelry. There's no better way to promote my business than seeing my actual pieces on real people

I forgot all about my boxes...lol. I grabbed a few photos of some of my wood burning in various stages of completion. I have stopped working on them, but I will pick it back up, now that winter is setting in.

setting in.

A place for things that just defy all my other catagories
