This Saturday, the School for Little Children is hosting a fundraiser. I was invited to submit a silent auction item, so I decided to make a little angel. It was fun to dress her up. She is a pin, to serve as a guardian angel on a lapel or maybe a backpack. I made other […]
I finished the book, and am processing thoughts and notes from a fabulous weekend. Tomorrow, I’m heading out to the Women’s Innovation Network’s Black History Month Innovation Panel: Super Successful Black Women Entrepreneurs Share How They Did It – the Story Behind the Glory! Last year was a lovely inspirational gathering, that to me kicked off […]
I have this book to finish by Sunday. Have a fantastic weekend!
The big day of love is tomorrow, so I will share my love of encaustics with you today. Last Monday I perused the Rhythm in Wax exhibit and was blown away by the beauty of it. The show includes my fellow FUSEDChicago members, and it is on the first floor of The Dellora A. Norris Cultural Arts […]
Last week I attended The Sugar Path’s first Girls’ Night Out pop-up event, which was a lovely gathering of women. Owner Michelle Adams kindly invited me to bring my Maraviglia wax and wire pendants. The Sugar Path was founded in 2011, when three sisters decided to pursue a love of baking. Michelle researched the food […]
This week included cupcakes, winter walks, Etsy loading, and now fighting off a cold. So my recap of it all will have to wait until next week. But I do wish you a sweet weekend! Syrah Cupcake by The Sugar Path
I had more inspiration under the brightness of the chilly sun on Friday and created another Princess Scientist inspired batch. Who can resist such a sunny table? Princess Chocolatier emerged from reviewing the molecular structure of Theobromine. I attempted to emulate the loopy notches of a microchip for the Princess Programmer pendant, and was surprised to […]
How’s your winter thus far? The other day I experienced a wide range of temperatures and weather. I took my car to the workshop and broke a sweat walking back to downtown in my coat. It was raining all the way, too. Then after some indoorsy errands I picked up the car as the temperature […]
I’ve just finished loading my new creations to Etsy. It’s always fun to describe my pieces, and let them go out into the world to make others happy. Some wire wanted to be sculptural, and some were channeling Spring. I enjoy seeing where the wire takes me. It is freeing to have a vision yet also […]
Recently Netflix fed Ruby into my recommendations as I was looking for another TV series to distract myself with. I sometimes need a re-set to transition out of work mode into house-mode, and a 30-minute episode can do just that. I didn’t think a weight-loss program would intrigue me, but this one had a lot […]
