Bottle Cap Class at the Gandee Gallery

I had a great time today with a super group of women making resin filled bottle caps.  Think tiny frames.  Thanks to all who attended.

Found Object Necklaces

I have been busy on the series of found object necklaces for the upcoming show at Gandee Gallery.  These necklaces are assemblages of many different things. Can you find the brass name plates, tin molds, costume jewelry, printed tin, chains from a lot of different sources, metal from hair ornaments, buttons, a trilobite, belt buckles, and a small lapel pin.  I hope you like them as much as a I do.

REnewal Exhibit at the Gandee Gallery

Salvage Yard

Went to the salvage yard today looking for screen doors which I will repurpose into display units.  It was a good thing to do on Earth Day.  Much looking netted me these two which I will add supports so they can stand on their own and I will also add some more horizontals from which  to hang jewelry.

 I asked the owner if he had any cans and after much searching in a funky area I found this oyster can.  All good finds.

Tin Collage Brooches

Collage can be fun with any material.  Here I am using images from tins which have been cut out and riveted in place along with copper tube rivets in the tin frames.
