On to my next project
Posted September 27, 2013
So the Emmy's are behind me and I have to say, what a ride! The excitement around #craftingtheemmys was incredible. Unfortunately, all good things must come to an end. Now, on to my next project.
I've connected with the great folks at the Makers Square in Fort Lauderdale to help with a Victorian themed Day of the Dead formal ball, Danse Macabre. Doesn't that sound fun?
Now I'm not normally into skulls, but I have to say I've been rocking it!

As you know, in the last few weeks I've been working away at my bracelets for this years Emmy nominees and boy am I pleased with the results! I'm so thankful to be part of the Ice Resin® design team and part of this experience. Finally, the reveal~
My progress on the Emmy's

As many of you know, I was asked by Ice Resin and CHA (Craft & Hobby Association) to create 5 bracelets that will be delivered to this year’s Emmy nominees. How exciting, right? Some of you have asked to have a peak at what I’m working on. So, here’s your peak..

Coincidence or not

Lately good vibes have been coming my way. No black cats crossing my path…Is it because I’m open to it? That I’m paying attention? I don’t know for sure, but who am I to question things?
Here’s the chain of events;
In March of 2012 I met Susan Lenart Kazmer at Artfest and became part of her mixed media design team in September. Late October I met Regina from RMA Design Studio. In a discussion, I discovered she manufactures in pewter (which I happened to be researching).

Today is the first day of summer and I know I should be thinking about fun in the sun, but all I can think about is jewelry...
Fun at Anthropologie with AG jeans
Posted March 8, 2013
Thursday night crafting event @ Anthropologie in Aventura hosted by AG Jeans. AG is an eco minded company using Ozone technology and is made in Los Angeles (Yay to made in the USA).It was a fun night spent decorating AG tote bags with fabric and jewels which were recycled damaged items from Anthro. We talked and made new friends (and drank champagne :) A good time was had by all. Thank you AG & Anthro!
Inspiration in recycling
Posted September 20, 2012
I was recently commissioned to make a figurine and boy did I have fun with it! It's a compilation of found, repurposed and recycled items. The only new materials were the wire and a bolt I used as the spine.
I began to work away, twisting, drilling and strategically placing each piece. The only problem was when to stop. And each time I said she was finished, I lied, and spent another hour on her.
So without further ado, here is Steampunk Ballerina!
