New resin playing card pendants! »

I’m so psyched about my latest batch of pendants, they really turned out well.  After several failed attempts, I think I’m finally starting to get the hang of working with resin.   I also figured out a way of embedding the little wire loops that is much cleaner looking than how I was doing it [...]

DIY bleach resist t-shirts »

This was super easy.  I took some cheap solid colour t-shirts and turned them into one-of-a-kinders.   First, I laid out my t-shirts and put some objects on that I wanted to make the pattern with.  I cut out paper wings for the back of the first t-shirt, and laid out some beads to make [...]

Recycled playing card into resin pendant »

**Update:  This has been sold already, but I’ll be listing some more resin pendants in my shop soon. I used another one of the clear resin componants I made earlier, and decoupaged an image from an old playing card. The angel image is from the back of  a blue Bicycle brand poker deck.  The resin [...]

Smoky purple and red extra dangly earrings »

Up for sale on my Etsy shop. I love the smoky purple colour in these ones.  If they don’t sell, I might keep them. Thanks again to Kelly who gave me the lightbox that has allowed me to take much better pictures.  I love how they look like they are floating on nothing in this [...]
