Tuesday Treasuries "Some Summertime"

Lori of Moda di Mango was kind enough to put me in her Some Summertime Treasury. I love all of the seaside critters in this treasury. I can't to visit my parents during the Fourth of July. Nothing like sitting out on the beach or chilling out on the boat to celebrate your holiday weekend. My Celtics are giving me heart burn at the moment. Hopefully we can close the series out in Boston.

New Work Finally!

I've been busy between work, my recent EIT Test and the Etsy MetalClay Trunk Show, so I have not really finished any of my work. I finally finished my Victorian Floral Charm and Starfish Pendant. I have a couple of Bronzclay pieces coming and I will be starting my fused glass class soon. Hopefully I will be able to figure out how to apply silver overlay paste to my fused glass pendants. Below is some of my finished work.

Can't take New England out of the girl

I'm looking at my bench and realizing I miss my grandmother's beach. I have scallop shells and starfish almost ready for the kiln. The Fall was the best time of the year to collect scallop shells on Hyannis beach. I have one large scallop shell in bronzclay and one silverclay starfish. I will hopefully finish them soon. I miss my ocean and I miss my Fenway. The Fall also means baseball for me. If you haven't notice my profile picture, I am a huge Red Sox fan. Big Papi came through Thursday night but we are back in Tampa tonight , so I wish my team luck, we will need it. Below are some pictures of my current work.
