Artist, crafter, wife, mother. Obsessed with the broken and unloved things. Thankful for every day.
Newest cool stuff I've made. I ruined (not sure how) my bath so now I have to start with a new one. :/ forced break if you will.

I want to get off fb but it's like sugar. Super hard to stop and you don't even realize you're having any because it's in everything.. :/

Still a newbie, still figuring things out. Pretty happy with the amps to volts ratio. Nice and smooth. #electroplated #electroform #electroforming #jewelryartist #copper #arewestilltaggingthings #oddityjewelry

My item for the raffle for the canned cat food drive tonight. One of the first pieces I carved to plate.

BlueSky gets the first photo of this beaut. I'm having a bit of choice paralysis though, there's so many ideas in my head of the things I want to create.

Just a part of what will bea bigger piece. The patina could use some work. I plan on adding a labradorite element.

if they want to go back to the 1950s, we’re bringing the cuisine back to the 1950s too. you put me in the kitchen, I will spend 100% of my time in there finding how much horseradish and shrimp I can put in Jello before God personally comes down here to stop me.

He isn't autistic. I could guess, but I'm not willing to throw other conditions under the bus. He's a manipulative monster who took one look at "lack of empathy" on our dsm and how we are perceived as eccentric brilliant trailblazers and decided that fit his personal narrative.

These just finished. To patina, or not to patina?

The water in your body is just visiting. It was a thunderstorm a week ago. It will be the ocean soon enough. Most of your cells come and go like morning dew. We are more weather pattern than stone monument. Sunlight on mist. Summer lightning. Your choices outweigh your substance.

Spiced caramel Dutch apple pie.

2 of 4 pies are done. I'm sure I'm going to see a ton of food photos coming up, and you know what? Good. Take those photos, enjoy that food! I wholeheartedly approve. 💚

Just going to keep posting #wirewrap and #wirewrappedjewelry
I not only wrap stones but I also wrap bones! Here's a heart cabochon with rodent tibia. All of my tiny bones are sourced from pellets that come from a local raptor rehabilitation center. #raptorsinc #odditiesjewelry

Honestly I don't even know what to put on here I just wanted something different than what we currently have.

More #wirewrap jewelry. #ScavengingHand #wirewrappedjewelry
I used to wrap entirely in plated copper or silver but I really like the earthly feel of bare copper and the patina that develops. Plus the cost of silver is ridiculous so it's not part of the equation anymore.
