How I spent my weekend






How do I spend my time? Well, doing crazy things like this, of course!
Not at all finished, but getting there. The piece has fine inner designs and I like the control I've started to develop in my newest work. Glass/foil/pearls.
I'll rephotograph it in better sunlight; it's 7:30pm.

Archive: Mermaid Tiara

This was a latter day addition to the collection. The shell, with rocks embedded, was from the time I lived on Molokai. Blue windshield glass, gilded with silver foil, antique coral strands, beads and carved flowers, pearls, both real and vintage,  on a plastic headband. The original tiaras are MIA, but I will be locating them, and the other missing items, posting them when I can. This is terrifically wearable!

Archive: Mermaid Hair Ornament

This is a wearable hair comb, obviously one of the pearls is missing from the wires at the top. I wore this in my hair when I lived in Hawaii. Nice to see it again.
