Textile Wonders

I love to look at new ways to use fabric and thread, and no better place than etsy to do that. Aroluna, one of the many talented etsy jewelers, put together this list of items I am proud to be part of. What a beautiful selection! Just take a look and if you can't live without one (or many) of this items, go to the etsy treasury page and you can access it from there.

It is sooo Tudors...

And I love it!

I have been working on this design for the last two months... Yeah, that long! But it was worth it. IMHO, it came out really nice and this particular one reminds me of medieval festivals, court and Ann Boleynn. The design is pretty flexible, though, and changing the silk gives it a whole new, modern look.

Don't be shy!!! Tell me what you think and if you love it, run to SilkArtFromBrazil.com or SilkArtFromBrazil.etsy.com.

Wired Cuff... of, so beautiful

I am taking advantage of being "stranded" in Baltimore for 6 weeks, doing a lot of interesting stuff.

I found Beadazzled, a super friendly beads store, and took a couple of classes there. One of the teachers was Cas Webber, and she taught how to make this wire cuff... I just love it!
