I’ve done a lot of uploading and tweaking wordpress for the shop, and while I have plenty of pieces in stock, I was itching to get back into the studio again. This brush needed to be taken out of its misery too! My rainbow collection garnered a custom Valentine order, which I cheerfully fulfilled. These are […]

My last show for the season was the Bucktown Holiday ArtShow. As always, this show was a lot of fun and featured many creative artists. I enjoyed making new friends and catching up with the regulars. Day One was filled with visiting friends and some new admirers. I enjoyed watching what people gravitated to in […]
The last day of April was marred by rain, but that did not deter shoppers from browsing See Jane Sparkle and my Trunk Show. I set up for the show in the morning, and dropped of more yarn bomb doilies next door, where drawing angel hung out for the day to support Stumble & Relish’s […]
The Wilder Mansion Holiday Market was a lovely event. The drive to Elmhurst was bright with scenic Fall colors. The Mansion is impressive. I can only imagine what it must have been like to live there in the stately rooms with beautiful crown molding, fancy chandeliers and gran fireplaces. Unloading was in full swing when […]
September closed out with a pop-up at Ayla’s Fall Bead Bazaar. I had perused the bazaar last year and was thrilled to be one of the vendors this year. What’s not to like about being surrounded by sparkles and beauty? Last year’s Pyrite strand made it into a set. I paired it with my Desigual […]
Mother’s Day is less than a month away and I’ve been busy making new pendants to honor the nurturers in your life. These pendants contain the word ‘mother’ in a variety of languages, and are fun to peruse. The majority of words have m and n sounds, but a surprising amount have different letter configurations […]
Whenever I do my Etsy shoots, I try to also wear the pieces out and about for a photo record of how they look in real life, like this blue beaded pendant, ring and earring set. Sweaterdress season is almost over, and this jade stone collar looks great with knits. It’s fun to mix and […]
Well my holiday fairs are over and I am so flattered and honored at the reactions my pieces garnered. It is lovely to be complimented on my wire-bending skills, and to have people purchase pieces to give to their loved ones. Knowing the quotes and songs touch people’s hearts and have meaning to them makes […]
I made a few new pendants this month that I almost do not want to part with. The studio has been shiny and bright, luring me in. Someone posted Isaiah 55:12 in a piece of their work, so I went to my art Bible and ripped that page out for a pendant. Don’t you love […]
I’ve loaded some new pieces to Etsy last week while reviewing what I have in stock. Anything created since then will debut at Platt-A-Palooza on August 30 and make their way to Etsy after that (if it doesn’t go home with someone). My newly loaded pendants include Lime-Green Abstract Circle, Peace be with You, Write in […]
