with mother's day coming soon, i always try to have special pieces dedicated to the day and the feeling of honoring mom. this year, i am featuring my custom pieces. with the gloomy economic outlook, what better way to honor wonderful women then with something truly unique and thoughtful. i have always had a fascination with nursery rhymes. you know the ones, they have a melodic sweet rhyming rhythm that gently masks the dark words. "ring around the rosie," "rock a bye baby," are all favorites. one way to catch your favorite quotations, nursery rhymes, even your children's precious names is to have them stamped on a pendant or bracelet. a truly unique piece of jewelry for a truly unique woman.

show schedule
as i sit here in snow laden cambridge what comes to mind is my spring show schedule! what else, right? so far i am doing the following shows:
Art in the Park, Richmond, VA; this is the first weekend in May (saturday and sunday)at the Carillon Park in Richmond. this is a huge show so check back for my space assignment
St. Peter's Art Show in Lewes, Delaware; this show has undergone a sort of renaissance. it's much bigger than in year's past and the new organizers have done a wonderful job of re-organizing the artists and promoting the show to a broader audience. this year the show falls on the 4th of july! lewes is a quaint town so spend the weekend if you can.
Lewes Historical Society Craft Fair, Lewes Delaware; this show is the following saturday (the 11th) and it is on the grounds of the historical society off of shipcarpenter st. in downtown Lewes. always a good show, though it costs $3 to get in, it's worth it.
i am thinking of doing a show in chicago at the beginning of june, hmmmmmmm i will let you know as soon as i decide.

modtangle.etsy.com
after 10 years creating and selling the modern locket, i have finally created a brand new line of jewelry debuting on etsy called modtangle. i say finally because it has taken a long time to create something i truly love and is truly wearable.
