A shout out to Blackberry Beads

I met Donna of Blackberry Beads at the Bead and Button Show a few weeks ago. Her work is seriously gorgeous, as you can see from the buttons above. In addition to lampwork, she also does metalwork and felting. I love her use of color and organic forms!

I have a new day job, so I've been neglecting the shinies as of late. Just let me get settled in at the new gig and new jewelry will follow!

Bead and Button Show is on!

So who's going to Bead and Button? Who's already there?

I'll be there lending an hand to my friends at McDuck Creations in the marketplace. Stop on by and check out Mary's terrific lampwork and findings at booth #207.

New items on Etsy

I just posted a number of steam-ish items that I had made for NakamaCon on my Etsy. It was a great con and there were some terrific artists and costumers at the event. My faux tintype charms went over quite well!
