Fused Copper Ring

We have another new ring style in the shop (I know...they just keep adding up!)  This time it's copper wire fused with a silver nugget.  I like this one a lot, and it looks great stacked with our other rings.  It's made with a slightly thicker wire (16 ga instead of 18 ga--we're testing out some new materials) but, of course we could make it to match the smaller wire of the other rings.  I really like these ones!

A.M.P. Cup

Life has been crazy busy lately.  The season is starting, we are moving in two weeks and Everything (yes with a capital E) is happening at once.  However, I've been wanting one of these, ever since we visited Lock's parent's houses.  Lo and behold, my dad had one in his stash of stuff.  I am so excited, although I have no idea who this A.M.P. is...

Getting ready for this weekend

We made some new rings and they are now in the shop.

New Photographs

We've been re-shooting some of the items to get an overall more consistent look.  I'm happy with these new photos.  They are more engaging and just a little it more enigmatic--I like the darker wood background with the visible grain, and the light in this room is generally better.  I really like the new photographs of the brass tassel necklace compared to the old ones.  These new ones make it look much more exciting and fun to wear.  And the rings now give an overall feel of the different styles.

Buttons!

So people tend to really love the neck cowls that we make.  In all honesty, they are a very simple knitting pattern; but what makes them exciting and unique are the handmade copper and brass buttons.  I love buttons, and I am especially partial to metal  and shell buttons--perhaps it is their relative rarity in relation to plastic buttons, or maybe the natural materials just feel more substantial.  Regardless, I got really excited when I realized that I could make them myself and set about making buttons with any material I could.  We've added an handmade button section to our shop, and have been stocking it with all these cool buttons--check it out!
