Formed the tin on these earrings with a hydraulic press when I was at Haystack this summer.  They are just like little pillows.  I just got around to joining them together.  They are going to be at the Clothesline Show.

Starting the countdown to the Clothesline Show in Rochester on September 7 and 8.  So many artists and so much fun!

At the Chicks Along the Canal Craft Show in Little Falls NY yesterday.  This is Christy Lemp, who shared a booth with me.  She is a fine watercolorist.  The next time we will be together will be at the Clothesline Show in Rochester NY in early September. Here's a link to her blog:

craft show tent weights

I made new

weights for my tent posts.  Don't want anything flying around!

More earrings: all tin with parts from a candle reflector.

Come see me at Little Falls NY this Saturday:

Fresh from all of my fun at Haystack, I have been looking at new designs.  These pendants are some new ideas. I have combined tin, bottle caps, beads, wooden ruler pieces and steel jump rings.
