My Works in Progress

Here are a few things that I'm working on lately:

Button bracelets using all antique and vintage buttons and some beads (thanks to Deryn, Kelly, and everyone at A Charming Exchange to get me started and unafraid!):

Polymer focal pendants: (I can't seem to get a decent picture of the others today. But I have a light tent coming!)

I'm looking forward to taking better pictures later this week. I have several pendants going and I'm trying to get a little stock to fill at least one page on my Etsy Store!

Here's to a great week!

Etsy Artists

OWOH notice: I'm going to be giving away two turtle pendants instead of one! A lot of people signed up...so I'm going to throw another one into the pot. Picture to come by the weekend.

Now on to the blog...

Etsy is really something, isn't it? I think that it has been a big part of this craft Renaissance that we're seeing. The drive to buy handmade (and to sell) is taking off!

Here are some artists that you may not have seen.

Cathy is a Polymer Artist and Etsy Seller (name dumauvobleu) who lives in France and makes gorgeous polymer beads:

Alison (Etsy Seller Earthtonesonline) is another polymer bead artist. She gets really interesting color patterning and her bird beads are to die for!

And Etsy Seller Naftali whose work has been featured in several magazines, including Bead and Button:

Hope you enjoyed the tour!
