Trying to get back to posting my chainmaille work on the reg, hopefully every day. Here’s some of the stuff I’ll be putting up on the store this weekend. Viper basket is one of my faves…I love how strappy it is. Pretty quiet, too…probably 2/5 on the Jangle Scale.

A chainmaille bracelet in shiny black and matte blues.A pair of chainmaille earrings that are silver with a stripe of midnight violet, and a chainmaille bracelet in silver and black.A chainmaille bracelet in matte black and matte gold.

everyone’s asking what i 𝘥𝘰 now i run a small, highly specialized operation where multiple golden girls bots post into the void on bsky dot app it’s called entrepreneurship, look it up

This was so fun! Plus you get to hear some pretty bad music from my high school music theory days. lol I'm so fortunate to be able to make this show. To be *required* in this time to sit and chat with people about what makes us human and what makes us artists. It heals me a little, every episode.

I had the privilege to talk with @extralettuce.bsky.social and @theaudienorman.bsky.social on their podcast “The Studio Window”, talking about art, meditation, sobriety, validation, and a ton more. Check it out! www.extralettuce.com/studiowindow...

The second thing I ever made (2011) and one of the same weave I made more recently. Even though I started pretty strong, I can still see tons of improvements I’m glad I learned to make. You can always get better somehow; don’t think you’re stuck, whether you’re at the bottom or doing your best.

My occasional random check-in with a picture of something shiny. (I'll maybe get better about posting here someday. 😝) Love these earrings from 2014 and want to make more, but I can*not* find tiny organically shaped turquoise stones like these anywhere. Now I'm reluctant to let them go. lol

You can tell things are going well in America because accounts with names like MovieTVFunZone are posting things like, "THE PIGS ARE KIDNAPPING CHILDREN AND PRIESTS. THE TREE OF LIBERTY DEMANDS TO BE WATERED"

Made some funky experimental fidget toys a few days ago. All of the large rings “inside” the weave are rosettes, meaning two rings entwined. The pyramids are ~*lovely*~ to play with (⬇️video) and I’m kind of obsessed. The hex flat is also the perfect weight and thickness.
