Studio

A little snap of how my bench looks like right now.  I dream of clutter free, minimal and pristine work spaces,  but there's something really satisfying about a messy work bench... well, only until I lose something then it's time to clean.

DIY tarnish remover

This sterling silver necklace was kept out in the open and mixed together with my brass and copper necklaces resulting in this heavy tarnish.  I've been looking for different ways to clean my jewelry and thought I'd share in my little experiment.

Hand stamped jewelry...

Something I've been working on these days..personalized initial jewelry!

upper case alphabets + numbers

tiny brass tags in teardropsrectangles and triangles

I also picked up these fun shapes that I can't wait to use! Especially the rain-cloud stamp that might end up on a teardrop earring.

Egg carton and confetti

I'm always running out of things for storage.  Started collecting these recycled egg cartons to put my handmade paper confetti in!  Give me a hole puncher and some paper and i'll punch away all night, kind of meditative (until your hands start cramping up).
