  • Just a few shots of a resin fern bangle in a thin mold that I’ve been working with lately :) If you like it, learn how to make your own here!

  • I’m finally working through some gorgeous flowers for a new batch of resin jewellery. Before I started preserving my flowers though, I decided to have a little fun with my macro lens :)

  • After a long break, I’m thrilled to announce a jewellery sale in my Etsy store, starting this Friday at noon! Tito and I have been working hard on a new set of jewellery–and I honestly believe it’s some of the best work I’ve ever done. Maybe it’s because all the bezels are 100% handmade from…

  • Tito has been doing a lot of copper work lately, and to my great delight he has gotten into making bezels. His work is (I know, I’m biased) absolutely gorgeous and totally steam punk. He creates each bezel purely from scratch, hammering and shaping and soldering each piece until it’s just right. Then they’re hand-tarnished…

  • I bought this bracelet in Bath, England a few years ago. Originally, those silver frames held mother of pearl inserts.

  • A few weeks ago I tried my hand at polyester resin, and it was a complete disaster. I thought that scrubbing off the mold (and my skin) with acetone would be fine, but on my next experiment I found out I was wrong. The stress of the whole sordid event left my beautiful bangle mold…

  • For the next week I’ll be reviving the jewellery section of my Etsy store for the holidays – check it out here! Aaand… it’s been a while coming, but the Blurb page for buying print copies of the book has been updated with the new version. If you love having a printed book in your…

  • …. And here is a taste of the goodies that will be available: This update has taken a lot of time, and I’m totally in love with the results. There is a wide selection of material, prices and aesthetics, including my new photography plates. It starts at noon EST tomorrow, so if you want to…

  • Today I wanted to preview a new design that I’ll be offering at the Etsy sale starting this Sunday–wearable photography. These pieces are created using my own photographs (I’ve been showing off the autumn-themed pieces but there will be other options) printed to transparent acrylics and then baked directly into handmade polymer bases. After the…
