New Lampwork

More New Work
Here are some new lampwork glass beads I've been working on, all available at the craft fair in Beacon this Saturday and at the Holiday Handmade Cavalcade in New York City on Sunday.
Large etched organic abstract lentil beads to be worn on a choker or turned into pendants
These Victorian Baubles are ready to be turned into pendants or watch fobs
Glass headed flat head pins are a great little stocking stuffer for your needleworker, very handy for sewing or just decorating a pincushion. I made the little sea monster just to show off the pins.  It looks a bit perplexed.  After all, what has it done to deserve all this poking?

Craft Fair Weekend!

Craft Fair Weekend

It's time for the only two craft fairs I'm doing this season!  Come see my lampwork glass based crafts (no arts or prints) at either of these two fairs - Saturday in Beacon, NY, and only on Sunday in Chelsea, NYC.  The links are at the bottom of the page.

This is your chance to see in person some of the new things I've made. Here are my miniature glass seascapes!  I make each sea anemone, shell or sea star on the mandrel and then assemble them together with epoxy and fine sand.  I haven't seen anyone else making these yet on the internet, so come get something really original and one of a kind!  The cherry or walnut wood blocks they are on  is only 1.5" square, to give you an idea how tiny they are.

Holiday Gift Tags - Free Printable

Seasons Greetings!
This year a little fennec fox named Luna joined our family.  In honor of this newest member of our household, this year's gift tags show our little girl being naughty and being nice.  Like most little ones, she is a bit of both.

Instructions:

  1. Print out the downloaded file on a sheet of card stock
  2. Cut out each tag along the pale blue lines - use scissors, x-acto knife & ruler or paper cutter.
  3. Punch out holes with a hole punch or just attach to your gift with tape or glue. I also drew in gold marker along the edges for more decoration.
