though my life often looks like the second picture here, it's been amazing to refine myself to this extent and put up a stunning display of work this week. fresh new creations are starting to show up on my etsy page. (yes!) thanks to the a.ware girls julie + carol for giving me a goal to get me motivated and organized! yahoo!!!

ahhhhhhh
i had made these resin pieces a couple months ago. they sat on the bench. they travelled around with me in little baggies, BEGGING to become something more. so i let them, despite the fact my soldering skills could use some practice. armed with a "new" old cross peen hammer, i figure its better to make work, even make potentially MEDIOCRE work, than make no finished work at all. step up to the next place. each step learning, thinking, improving, pondering, practicing, messing up, fixing, refining, finishing, wearing! each step in the process has value. and in this process, i have realized what to do better next time. this is SO worth all the effort.
next time: make the front just as compelling to look at - as the back!
