More photos from Artscape

Here's some more photos from the weekend! I'll write a recap soon :) thanks everyone for coming out and supporting Baltimore's art scene ! I'm kinda glad to be home in the AC though ;) I also have some exciting news to share with you all later! Sayonara Artscape, it was fun!

Some beautiful ladies modeling their new purchases :) Thanks so much! 

My amazing Assistant and wonderful Husband :) couldn't ask for a more patient and helpful soul, he's the best a short, disorganized, mathematically challenged girlie  could ask for! I love this man! 

New in the shop!

I've been lagging on blogging lately, but I've been working over time on getting more pieces listed in the shop! Here is a little sampling of the newest arrivals:

Morning sunshine

Got up bright and early, the weather has really cooled down from last week! I recently have been drinking hazelnut coffee and it makes my mornings so much happier :) A nice breeze is motivating me to get ahead of some work, that is truly rare.

In other news, we are getting ready to make an office space for Kirk! The room is so bare looking, it's odd. Cleaning out that room pushed us to clean out a bunch of rooms and we donated more clothing and objects the other day. My observation from cleaning is: out of sight, out of mind is really real! Who knew I needed these old magazines I hadn't seen for years until I re-found them yesterday? Hahaha what are some of your cleaning epiphanies?

How to wear it

I thought I would start sharing some photos of how I wear my work. Perhaps it will inspire you, or not :) I think it's easier to see how something looks in real life so here is how I like to wear the vintage Miya Open Circle Necklace on a casual day.

This color scheme is so versatile you can wear it with just about any color. However, I think olive tones and any darker brown colors work really well to bring out the subtle colors that make this necklace shine. Another fun thing about this piece is the fact that both gold and silver metals work well with it. You can find this plus a lot of other colors in the shop!

Packing up

Back from the beach and I'm packing again! Getting ready to send these pretties off to be sold in the Gallery Shop at the Strohl Art Center in Chautauqua New York!

Mmmmmmm!

Made some banana bread from those mushy bananas that were on the counter! I'm sort of surprised at how well it came out :) here is the recipe I followed if you wish to make some as well : http://allrecipes.com/recipe/banana-banana-bread/

Working on orders and new displays today. Happy Monday!

Business nook!

Not sure if I ever updated the before and after of my closet business nook makeover. Even if I did, here are a few more photos! I have gotten so much more done now that it is all organized and cozy. I think my favorite part of it is the grassy green carpet because it brings an outdoorsy feel to the place! Also, I'm wearing a new version of my 5 circle necklace in the photo!

Waste not!

Just finished a series of pieces that use the scraps of fabric I had left over and was originally going to recycle but now they have found purpose! Here is the photos of a little tile bracelet that is almost finished.

Triangle crazy

I think I've gone overboard with the triangle theme :) I just can't seem to get enough of this geometry! (and if you know how mathematically challenged I am, that is not a phrase I would EVER say haha) Here are some photos for you:

Brand new in the shop: Half Star Necklace 

Prototype of long tassel diamond earrings

 

Triangle Ikat Earrings

 

This last photo shows a pair of earrings that I'm currently experimenting with. Hopefully they will be available later in the month! 

It's gorgeous outside hope you're making the most of it!

Photo Update

Finally finished the second pair of the vine earrings. I'd been sketching these babies for about a month and never even attempted to make them. Lots of trial and error and here they are!

 

Look who grew a lot bigger! Also, the mystery is solved: the middle plants ARE morning glories! Who knew? :)

 

...Ta da! Here is a middle photo of the business nook transformation. It's coming along nicely, remember how terrible it looked before? Just a bit more elbow grease and it should be finished.

 

and actually, I sort of tore up my whole studio and had an extreme home makeover moment. I'm super happy with how it is turning out. I was subsisting on coffee and bananas that week and just wanted to move some furniture. I'll have to post some photos after the dust settles. It's looks verrrry different than before. In a good way.

 

I thought these chains were pretty. 

Plus, Loch Raven was a wonderful show like always! After coming off the 5 day Home and Garden show I appreciate the one day shows immensely more. It was lovely to see you all and I even had some surprise visitors too! You know who you are :) Thank you all so much for making last weekend a blast!

Ooo one last note: I got a Swiffer for my birthday from my Mom and I'm so excited to Swif today! (and make banana bread from these really old bananas that have been on the counter!)

Tangerine Tango!

According to Pantone, the color of Spring 2012 is Tangerine Tango. I decided to make myself a little set using this years "in" color. I ended up loving the necklace design so I'll be introducing the little triangles necklace into my normal collection! It's just so dainty and has such great movement. 

It's also been abnormally warm for March, so I planted some lettuce in the kitchen and some hardy green beans out in the container garden yesterday. We'll see how they grow this early in the year.

I'm cleaning the studio AGAIN. That's about all for today! 

Weekend Recap

This weekend I displayed some of my newest creations! I don't know if it was the weather or the soy latte but I was just filled with inspiration this last week. Above are some photos of my new designs. I was really surprised that my new beads collection was received so well, I think all of the new combo necklaces I designed found new homes this weekend.  I have to say that this years MD Home and Garden Show was the nicest I've shown at in all 4 years. Thank you to everyone who stopped by and it was a real pleasure meeting my newest customers of the year :)  Next I'll be showing my wares at my old Highschool: Loch Raven Spring Craft Fair! So come out on the 24th from 10am - 3pm and shop around for something handmade!

Now I have to attend to the house which, like always, is a mess during the show. Opening the windows and letting the air come in! Hope you all have a lovely Monday!
