You guys. Look at what 13 sent me:
Some of these were ughs but some really made me laugh. Also mom called me from work concerned that I was so terribly sad. "Mom, I said I was vaguely sad. And it was just me recovering from the energy drink." But I thought it was so cute that she called all concerned that I told the story at dinner. "And what this tells us is that Mom's checking my blog at work!"
"No, I read that the night before. So really I was worried all night."
D'AAWWWW! Moms are the best.
Anywonk, I cut up some tin and made some simple danglies with beads.
A Civil Haunting. The backs have paper.
These have some faceted grungy chunks from shipwreckdandysupply.
I love these:
and these:
These glass teardrops on almost all of them are called "Unicorne Tears" and they give you the pow of lampwork without the big-ass mass or price.
And some sailboats, when I realized that the triangles looked just like sails.
And some chandelier's for the patrona.
oh noooo.
ReplyDeleteI severely covet the patrona's chandeliers.
Oh MY those ones with the ladies and the film strips! I wish I still wore dark colours so I could buy them.
ReplyDeleteSo funny how we work on similar things without knowing, I just started cutting out a bunch of tin shapes as well!
Also, saints of salvage? THAT IS US. Now we need a tv show. We can be like those idiots in the cowboy boots who buy stuff and turn it into lights. Except we'd be good.
cute those saints on top..I like them..

Shipwreck's beads are wonderful! I love that rose set as well, and her dyed bone is awesome. Your tin shapes are very sleek (my favorite), and those sweet little boats... they make me happy and remind me of children's books and Sundays in the park.
ReplyDeleteThose little sail boats say it all. You are physically immersed in all that freezing gray weather but your mind is in the Caribbean! They remind me of my childhood, my family sailed every weekend, thanks for the sweet memory.
ReplyDeleteLove those sail boats!
