Giving Back

A couple weeks ago, I was asked to donate an item for a silent auction to benefit La Red. It's impossible to contribute to every organization that requests a donation, although I try to give as much as possible, even if it's a small item.
For this event, I've donated these two pair of earrings.

These earrings were a treat to create. I was totally entranced once I began...forging the metal, adding texture, the beads, and the curly vine, everything just flowed.

These are just a simple pair of enameled earrings.

Contributing is a great way, for me as an artist, to give back to my community. I'm honored to be asked, and happy to contribute. Hopefully, these earrings will help in La Red's fundraising efforts.

Silent Auction Donation

Finally finished...the set of bangles being donated for the silent auction taking place during tomorrow's Arts Festival. Copper bangles with a few chunky dangles and stamped tags. The dangles hang below the wrist, but they have great movement without being a distraction. The bangles can be worn individually or together.

Love & Live Free Bangles

It promises to be a great weekend! Cooler and bright, sunshine for tomorrow's Art Festival and rain on Sunday, that we desperately need! Have a great weekend!
