a little teaser; also, an apology
[ A small black leather pouch sits, flap open, on a green and white outdoor carpet. It is handsewn, with a horn button to hold the flap closed. Two others, both closed, sit behind it; also behind it is a copper-and-seaglass pendant. ] So FIRST off I want to show off what my Soap &

process: sort of, but not really
[ A low wood grain table is covered with small sorted piles of jewelry bits, most with a moon and star theme. ] I finally, finally had the chance to sit down & make some jewelry. It’s been FAR too long. I’ve spent at least a bit of time every day this week working on

process: a baker’s dozen prompts edition, part I
[A scattering of random jewelry-related objects in a black tray: keys, beads, scraps of copper wire, baggies filled with shells and beads, and other impedimentia.] So a year or two ago I was among the many folks to sponsor a kickstarter by Lioness Elise, towards the purpose of her being able to make instructional videos

[ In a clearing in the woods, a folding chair sits at a small wooden workbench. The bench holds a scattering of items, including a rusty piece of metal and a white plastic water bottle. ] What a lovely place to ACTUALLY REMEMBER TO TAKE PICTURES WHILE I’M WORKING.

process: shiny happy faery home decor
[ Closeup of weathered copper tubing, bent into a V shape, with copper wire bent into a similar shape and fastened on with really thin copper wire. ] … more a ‘here is a thing I made’ than a process post as such, I’ve really gotten out of the habit of taking pics as I

process: ocean
[ A piece of white seaglass, shaped like the point of a spear & wrapped in thick copper wire, dangles from the center of a shallow arc of more wire; on either side of it are dangles with silvery-grey beads, with cowrie shells hanging from the bottoms. ] Not really a process post, cos I
