Beggar's Carnivale

No, really, I still exist. I've even still been making jewelry, but because of the job situation, it's all been commission work.

With the cooperation of Real Boss (tm), for the first time in about two years, I am going to have evenings and weekends free to resume work on jewelry. Might as well jump right on in with Beggar's Carnivale, a local three-penny circus (and so much more!).

I will also be at Pagan Picnic in Tower Grove Park, June 18th and 19th.

Currently Availible

There wil be a supplementary post tomorrow, as I ran out of light this evening. This post will be updated accordingly at that point. Comments on this post are for admiration - If you want to take it home with you, email fallingleafarts at gmail dot com

Still Alive

No really. Still alive.

After the big move (if you haven't noticed, I'm now in St. Louis), I didn't make much jewelry. A few commissions here and there, but nothing big - the new real job takes my time and creative energy.

Then, this weekend, I was supposed to be in Kansas City. Due to unforseen circumstances (see - real job), I was in town. Across the street from my new house Tower Grove Park, home of (this weekend) the All-City Pagan Picnic. Much scrambling for stock occured, as I couldn't find the big bag of jewelry from my last show in March. Ah!

I had a wonderful time, and am going to be posting shortly pictures of everything I have left as Currently Availible. This will supercede the previous Currently Availible post, since I can't find 3/4ths of my stock! (I expect it will show up in the next day or so, now that I don't need it.)

If this is your first time here, welcome. If you purchased something from me at Picnic, I would love to see you wearing the items, esp. as I probably don't have any pictures of it and only my memory to go on.

I live!

Contrary to popular belief, I exist, and am still working on jewelry. Adding to the still for sale list:

Necklaces
The Jumble of the Winglytoads and Jabberwoks a necklace of black glass, rutilated quartz, crystal, gold, agate, and various brown and gold beads - $55
The Play of Sunlight Under Branch Jade, mossy agate, sterling - $55
Midnight Fairies Dancing glass, agate, obsidian - $45 SOLD


Earrings
4 pairs earrings, $12 each
4 pairs earrings $12 each on goldfill hooks
4 pairs of earrings, priced as marked
3 pairs of earrings$12 each

More rosaries and stuff.

I seem to be doing a lot of commissions these days. I like that part. However, with all the stuff I've done for others, I decided it was time for me to make something for myself. So, we have two rosaries for myself. The long amber (yes, that's all amber) is my new one for garb. It's based on a 16th c. pattern. The amber and malachite is my "fiddle" for using at work or when I'm bored. Both are knotted rosaries on silk. I also just made an anglican one out of wood and tin for a for a friend - I'll picture that probably tomorrow.



I went past the bead store today, and picked up far too many beads. They were having a yard sale. This is the pile I picked up. I'll have an emerald and sterling rosary done for that big thing in Pennsylvainia, as well as some other bits. I'll probably be bringing my working bag and the minor kit.



If you see a string you *must* have, let me know.

Massive Earring Post

I so rarely take good pictures of my earrings and post them, mostly because it's a)hard and b)I make so many of them. Like the sale post, this will probably grow today as I get things photographed and edited.

Having fun with the pendants, but I left most of the good stones for it at the other place. Oh well. More next week.

Earrings

Two pairs of earrings, the gold ones are glass and jet, and the others are silver and glass. $15 a piece.

A note about earrings - I prefer the kidney backs or leverbacks because they don't fall out. If you prefer hooks, let me know and I can change these out.

Oak, Ash, and Thorn

Oak, Ash, and Thorn is one of the few pieces I'll ever do in copper, but the design called to me. Bloodstone and copper, $20

The World is Born of Flame

All glass and gold, The World is Born of Flame is about 7.5" long, so mostly for those with smaller wrists. $25

I had fun with this- Bracelets feel like an abbreviated necklace and don't take as much mental/emotional effort. It's like they're cheating.

The Colors of March at Home

The colors of march at home- Gold and green and sunbeams coming in through the windows. I made this around Christmas because I needed to work with the green an remember that spring will in fact come someday. Since I'm where I grew up this weekend (and where i'd left the necklace), it's time to add this one to the collection.

Glass and malachite on gold chain and wire. 19" and $40.
