Silk photo scarf.........

When you work in a particular medium everyday it becomes your main focus.
I am so busy working in antique stampings, pressed glass and researching I sometimes forget how pleasurable it is to work in other mediums.
I love textiles, texture, to be exact. I collect fabrics when venturing around the city and globe. Some have been inherited from my step-grandmother who was an amazing seamstress. She made clothing out of necessity. Her short stature just didn't quite fit into the ready to wear items sold in stores. Whether it was German mohair, one of the first mass produced double knits in a koi fish print (I recently gifted this to my fashion designer colleague for his upcoming swimwear collection) or various remnants of vintage bolts she kept them all perfectly organized in a cedar lined closet. It was magical in there.

I greatly miss still life and experimental photography as well. Creating a narrative or vignette out of found then arranged items gives me unexplicable pleasure.
I combined these loves of mine into "tattered" artist scarves. I took 5 designs with me to my last show and received much positive feedback.
Now if I can pull myself away from those pieces of brass and glass....I might just make more.

Calla Lily-Vintage Stamping Asymmetrical Necklace

Introducing an asymmetrical necklace for the spring bride, vintage fashionista or steampunk lovin' gal. Whether you travel by horse and carriage, 1960's Metropolitan or rocket ship-you will arrive in style!
http://www.etsy.com/listing/96798215/calla-lily-vintage-stamping-asymmetrical

This beauty has been hand constructed from a detailed mid-century vintage brass calla lily stamping and vintage copper butterfly stampings. The butterflies add dimensionality to the piece as they seem to be taking flight from the lily itself.

The calla lily pendant has been hand drilled and attached to a vintage bar chain with a classic lobster clasp closure and mini vintage locket at the end of 3 inch chain extender.

-Pendant size: 2 inches x 1 inch
-Chain length: 14 inches with 3 inches of extender.

Typewriters........

I have always loved old typewriters. The click-tick-clank between letters, periods, exclamation points and space bars. I do adore every individuals handwriting but I propose we use our antique underwood for guest book signing and well wishes for our wedding.

For a little fun, check out the following link and DIY project.

Wedding Planning!!?!?!?!?

My fiance shaun and myself are uber-focused creative types. My beloved proposed to me last june on a paris park bench near the champs Elysee and eiffel tower near midnight.
We just now secured a venue for our ceremony. I admit, i was becoming a little stressed. Not bridezilla stressed but a little concerned we had not planned a thing. Sometimes taking your time turns out for the best ;)

We live near one of the oldest cemeteries in the city. This amazing chapel inside of Elmwood Cemetery is where we will be professing our love this fall preceded by a traditional new orleans march......
