{oxidized poppy earrings}

i've been taking advantage of this last lull before the show season gets in full swing, and used the extra time to create some new designs for the line. you can find them on etsy or drop by the studio friday evening to see them in person. kiona and i are celebrating our beautiful new space with a {grand opening} event for the the first friday art walk. we are having a drawing for two $50 gift certificates, you get one entry just for coming and additional entries for every $20 that you spend.

enjoying the breeze on this warm spring day. various views out the studio window.

{origami birds}

its been a crazy busy week, preparing for sunday's show in greensboro and moving into my brand new {much bigger} studio. i love the new space so much that i don't want to leave at the end of the day. i've never had this much workspace before and best of all i got to paint,decorate and make it completely my own. i can only imagine how much more productive i'm going to be once i get settled in. we are planning a big grand opening bash on first friday, but until then here is a photo tour.

i even painted my bench to match

{spring cleaning}

floral charm bracelet {aqua}

its not quite spring but with my upcoming studio move i'm getting an early start on my spring cleaning.  i am discontinuing a few styles in order to make room for the new ones.  this will be the final chance for forged squares and vintage bead bangles and wrapped link bracelets.  keep checking the {sale} section in my etsy shop, i'll be adding a few more styles as soon as i can get them photographed.
