it's been way too long!

well, even though I haven't been updating my blog, I have still been making things here and there...

Bicycle for Jordan @ Fushion Salon* (visit her on park ave, rochester)

every winter I need a new hat, this was so much fun to crochet and make the needle felted flower (made from alpaca wool)

Simon's new bed! (My father guided me in making the frame made from cherry, thanks dad!) He loves his new king sized (for a wiener dog) bed!! it's right next to the wood stove so he keeps nice and toasty!

this is a custom made necklace for a friend of the family's new wife! congratulations Jack and Sue! 

this belt buckle has yet to be polished and is made from pieces of scrap silver melted together

another gift for Jordan @ Fushion Salon* (amazing hair cuts, styles and colors! she does it all for men too!!)

Simon gets cold quite easily being so little so I took out the sewing machine and got to work, matching coat, hat and scarf. (just one of his many outfits)

this ring I made for a local art show, my first time focusing so far "up" (its a good couple inches tall)

wooden earrings with turquoise and silver inlay 

the silver continues through the earring to form the stud

this is a ring i've been wanting to make for so long, it has a simple turquoise bead inlayed in it with the center hole filled with a thin piece of silver wire


layering, if you do it right its always fashionable!

random objects are great eye catchers!! tea party?

two sets of studs 

simple earrings are great to wear day or night!

this is an old picture, a rocking horse I made about 5 years ago! (guided by my incredibly talented father) I hope to make more soon! this was actually my second rocking animal...my first was a rocking elephant for my dear friend Anna's daughter, Lily, when she turned 1!

brass and silver, great combination!!
