Stuff I have made

[jwyche]

I am feeling really encouraged because people have actually seen fit to BUY some of the stuff I made. Here's the stuff I've sold, celebrate with me!



So I've been experimenting with enamels and they are pretty much the coolest thing ever. Melting powder into glass and fusing it onto metal? Yes I'll have some of that please. Now I just need a kiln that goes to 1400 degrees. Because everyone needs one of those or they might die.









A while ago, Elaine and I were spending lots of weekends at the flea market.
sidenote: You know what I hate? Indoor flea markets. It makes it sound like they're selling fleas in the comfort of air conditioning.

Moving on, a guy sold me a bunch of toys in Spanish including an old Barbie and he insisted that he was a magician. It was cool. I casted the hands of that Barbie and made this weird thing. And then someone bought it!

....someone named My Mom!

Haha. But whatevs.

I never told her that on the back there? Yeah that's a dead bug that flew into the resin but never flew out. Just doin my part for the Jurassic Parks of the future. Preserving buglets.




























This belt buckle I made once, than cussed it all up, so I made it again. I didn't like the second one so much, but that's what I got so mreh. A friend of a friend got it.












Some nice woman I don't know bought this thing, made from a photo of some ink splashes. I realize it's kinda gimmicky, but at the moment I am ALL. ABOUT. metallic photo paper, especially for black and white photos. I've been raiding my cache of prints, cutting em up and whatever.



















Plus a choker and a lock nut necklace, and Jaci's necklace, but enough about that. I haven't sold this thing but whatevs, I gotta do my part to try to give you a seizure induced by chroma overload.

The awesome thing about jewelry like that is that every single piece is unique.

Yes, that's what I'm going for. I like your userpic, btw!

If I had a kiln, I would be your kiln-pimp & let you do your deeds for free lol

Aw heck I even love your photos of your work so call me pathetic for even suggesting you sell the photos too!

I remember doing that glass powder/metal jewelry shiz in art school! good stuff!

I wanna buy some too! How do I do? You got an etsyersumpin?

[frostapostraphe.livejournal.com]

I do have an etsy! It's under the name of fleetbudgie. Go look, see what you think :)

Oooh, I definitely like that ink splashes one. (and the barbie hands one) I don't think it's cliche at all, I mean, especially like a place where I work - I want to find unique pieces I can wear with my outfits that will match a lot of different things like that would.
I would LOVE to do stuff like that, my mom has always had kilns and stuff (used to be a potter) even got glass and stuff for pendants my sister made - Meh....maybe when I get a house I can have room for fun stuff like that..... :/

Let's have craft night when we hang out; we'll procure a kiln and get crazy with it.

I am blown away by the pendant depicting the two hands! it looks as if it was set on a flat stone. All very beautiful!
