All Sprung Out 2013

I am getting materials ready and packing up some older work and some samples to have on sale at All Sprung Out! 
I met the lovely Rebecca of Nook and Charis Anderson there last year, and I am excited to meet some new friends next month!

I am hoping to bring some new earrings, some Copper Barnacles and a selection of fresh Spring Leather Earrings.

My hands are nearly healed so I am feeling good!

February Fox Fair!!

Only one more day until the Fox Fair!  Saturday Feb 9th from 10-4 at the Fernwood Community Center on Gladstone!!

I'll have Barnacle earrings, silver and brass Bangles, some silver AMMAS Prospector pendants and I am hoping to have enough time to finish up a few Anemone pendants as well.

Not to mention that Floating Gold Iceberg, Morena, Nook, Jennifer Riddell Jewellery, Modern Faire, Love Monkey and SO MANY MORE will be there!

Rebecca's trade

My friend Rebecca is a Knitter.  (notice the capital letter?  I'm serious when I say this... I have never met anyone with a passion for knitting like this gal.  Check out her blog Nook)

Before Christmas we had worked out a trade for a few of her fabulous Iris Monsters  (Sonny needed one, and I got a couple extras for my sister's twins as gifts) and this is the piece I made for her.

She gave me free reign on it, just saying that if it was a pendant, she preferred a long chain.

When I got into designing it, I kind of couldn't help myself and engraved a ball of yarn and needles into the pendant! 
It will darken over time, making the yarn stand out as she wears it.

She hasn't seen it in person yet, and I hope she's happy!
StinkEye the Monster gets a lot of love
