New Rare Bird Ad Design
Finished working on a little Rare Bird sidebar ad this week. Tried to keep it simple, clean and concise and I'd like to think I succeeded ;)

Most Wanted: Leather Chevron Necklace
The shop has been super busy lately. I have made so many of these necklaces in the past few months. I don't know exactly what happened but all the sudden I was getting 10 times the amount of views for this necklace and I realized it was coming from pinterest. My guess is that someone with a lot of followers pinned it and it just caught on. That brought on a number of orders for this necklace and many other items in the shop. Thanks pinterest!! What a busy few months!

Magnolia Necklace
New magnolia necklace in brass that I designed as a gift for my friend. I sketched the design using a vintage fabric featuring magnolias as inspiration. I scanned the sketch and resized it in illustrator. Then, I printed it out glued it on the sheet metal and began sawing away. I stamped little dots in the middle and the pressure actually bent the petals forward just a tad so that was a nice unexpected result. I finished it off with an oxidation bath for patina, gave it a brushed finish and hung it on an oxidized sterling silver chain. They are now available in my shop here.
