I am super excited about these. This was Tito’s idea for a new bezel design using bits of bark and driftwood that we found at the edge of Lake Ontario. The wood has been carved, cleaned and sealed, with copper elements built on to frame the…
In the spirit of taking our jewellery/nature fusion one step farther, Tito has designed these beautiful bezels using copper and small pieces of bark and driftwood. Can’t wait to add flowers and resin and see the overall composition!
Tito and I had a very good weekend at our first summer show. Thank you to everyone who came out to see us, or sent well-wishes! Next up; we’ll be at the Niagara-on-the-Lake Market Saturday July 11th and July 18th, more details coming soon :)

Last weekend, Tito and I took some of our favourite pieces out to the Toronto Music Garden to shoot what, in the advertising world, we call ‘hero shots’. We had a lot of fun arranging the work, hanging things on trees, and generally trying to…
One of the reasons Tito and I love selling at shows so much is that the jewelry looks lovely in the sun. In person, our work is lovely, and heavy and shiny, and seeing all our pieces spread out has a very candy-shop type of…
Had to share a few snapshots of the work we’ve been up to lately, along with information at last about our upcoming art shows! Tito and I have been accepted to: Frogpond Farms Organic Winery, Art in the Vineyard, June 20-21 Niagara-on-the-Lake Market, July 11th…
