Big color coming your way.

I ran out of bezel wire the other day and attempted to reclaim some scraps to make my own. I don’t recommend rolling out bezel wire, if you’re thinking of trying it. But in a pinch, several hours of work got me about 12 inches of usable wire. So while I waited for my supply order to arrive I moved some stones around on the bench and came up with some combos I’m super stoked on. Hope you like em, and if not that’s cool too because these color and shape combos will definitely not be for everyone—and I like that.

My bezel order arrived while I was typing this out, so stay tuned to watch these pieces to come to life.

Our 8 week intro to metalsmithing workshop is coming up on Thursday nights beginning October 15th and wrapping up December 10th. This beginner friendly class will cover all of the basics of metalsmithing, including soldering, sawing, forming, texturizing and stamping, stone setting, finishing work, and so much more. Come make for yourself, or make for someone you love.

More interested in a single day class? Our next statement ring workshop is scheduled for Saturday October 17th. Don’t wait to sign up–the last one sold out!

Life lately has been all about wild flowers and wheat fields and the dogs and working in the greenhouse and hiking local trails and enjoying a bits of slowness here and there.

If you’re here for the jewelry more-so than the lupine and the critters, I have a little shop update coming for you on Thursday June 4th. Please be sure to sign up for my newsletter for full previews + early access and to stay in the know of all future offerings.

It’s the final day of the open and I’ll have the workshop open from 10:00 until 5:00 today if you’d like to stop by.

Thank you so much to those of you who have popped in already to see the wares, tour the space, show support, for your trading your dollars for my creations—because that’s what allows me to keep this thing rolling, and of course for the smiles, hugs, good conversations, and warmth.

I’ve been dreaming about making this bolo for nearly two years now. I made my first 3D heron bolo back in May of 24 and ever since I’ve wanted to remake it to see just how far I could push the 3D elements. This one took a lot of planning and patience to get it right and to keep the grasses from balling up into little silver puddles. It was a fun challenge and you’ll definitely see more like this coming in the future. Be sure to swipe all the way through to see the back of the bolo too.

100% hand fabricated - no wax, clay, or casting.

The Marshlands bolo will be on display during the kickoff party this Friday at the from 6:00 until 8:00. If you’re located in the Gorge please consider joining us. If you can’t make the party the bolo will remain on display with them through the 26th.

After that you can come see it at the shop for the open happening May 1st, 2nd, and 3rd. I’ll have .arts.workshop open each day for guests and visitors and I hope you’ll swing by!

Thank you as always for being here.

Last week I took two wonderful gals through a deep dive into Metalsmithing. We spent five days in the studio and covered everything from proper sawing techniques to soldering, annealing, forming, stamping, layering, mixing metals, filing and sanding, plus getting a nice patina and finishing work. There was lots of problem solving, and a few frustrating moments, but that’s just a reality of this medium and these ladies handled everything I threw at them with grace and determination. Thank you for allowing me to push you just ever so slightly past your comfort zones in order to help you find a new edge.

We made spinner rings, bar studs, decorative studs, mixed metal earrings with sweat soldered layers, handmade paperclip chains AND some beautiful cabochon set pendants. Bravo ladies!!

The next five-day intensive “deep dive” is June 8th - 12th. All of the tools and materials are included in your registration cost and you can expect to finish 3 to 5 pieces of jewelry depending on your own personal progress. Questions? Feel free to inquire any time!
