Grabbed this lovely image off Caitlin's blog. Wonderful example of the texture produced with my shredded tees. Caitlin's Etsy store, Metrode is always crisp and white. She sent me this geode a few months ago and it's even more pretty in person.
I've been following Audrey's work on Livejournal since my freshman year of college (over 5 years ago, yikes!). I rarely use the website anymore, though I was pleased to randomly sign in today and be reminded of her. These pictures are pieces from a recent show and her current work space. Go to her website and click through, it's a beautiful trap. She has so much work! Tons of people are drawn to the contradictions throughout her pieces - just look at the amount of people with tattoos representing her art! Lovely.
A new one-of-a-kind item just uploaded to Urban Revisions. I seldom sew and I need to more often - pieces like this are fun to make. Created using two lilac hues, definitely one of my best selling colors. You can wear it as a skirt too.
I've changed all the necklaces in my Remnants of Mexico series to check out with free shipping!
All but two pieces pictured here are still available in the shop + several more...
Today I've been working on finishing up new jewelry pieces for the shop. Many have the same kind of look and feel that Nature in the City do - though these are made with darker glass and fibers. I have a few ideas for what I would like to call the series but still pondering. I suppose my earlier clear pieces would be considered Spring/Summer and these Fall/Winter. Yep. Hah, I'm still getting a handle on this whole seasonal fashion and accessories thing. Hopefully these will be finished for purchase soon!
Excited today because I was able to get on the lampworking torch (glass making) and make a bunch more cluster rings. All the sizes I have left in the shop are quite large and I've had some requests to make more for little fingers. Since the technique is competely freehand, it's always hard to know exactly what size I'm making - but I gauged them small with my eyes! We will see how they turn out tomorrow after they anneal.
I can't believe it's the middle of October! Ay yi yi.
Uploading some one-of-a-kind colors in the shop. I would love to offer these colors in every style and size but can't seem to source them very often. I also have enough fabric of each to create a scarf style if anyone is interested.
Today is the last day of my facebook sale! a 20% discount on all made-to-order items...
Later today I'm going to be uploading several new jewelry styles to Urban Revisions. Especially excited about the earrings. To continue my work with the Nature in the City series, I've been working on some similar looks but made from colored glass. Goal is to finish these by the end of October...
A much better example of the new sage color, photographed in the Shredded T-Shirt No. 5 design. I borrowed Jenny's camera for these recent shots... mine has been in bad shape for months, delivering poor focus. After contemplating for too long, I finally bought a new one today!
