Punch Gallery in Seattle

I've just returned from Seattle where the Ring A Day exhibit is being held. The show runs through May 29th if you happen to be in the area. Bryan and I flew out last thursday for the opening night, what a great time we had.


These are just a couple of the cases. I've posted more images of the rings on my Flickr site. What an honor it is to be part of this, it's such a beautiful and exciting show. Seattle is gearing up for the SNAG(Society of North American Goldsmiths) conference at the end of the month so many of the galleries were exhibiting metal artworks. I can't tell you how inspiring and thrilling it was to see jewelry and metal objects in the galleries rather than just gallery after gallery of paintings.


We took lots of pics of our time in Seattle so I'll be posting throughout the week.

Charm Swap#7

I received all my charms yesterday from my fellow EtsyMetal teammates who participated in charm swap 7. They are all really special. I think instead of putting them all on a bracelet that I will make several necklaces with them. Now the tricky part is deciding which ones to put together!

Lucky #7 charms

I'm participating in a charm swap with 20 of my fellow EtsyMetal team mates. These are the charms that I made to send in; they are made from sterling silver,a stop sign and copper. This design is a result from a ring that I made last year for the Ring-a-Day challenge. I can't wait to get little charms from the rest of the members. I'll post them right away when I receive them.

These are the rings from my ring a day challenge last year that will be on display in Seattle at Punch gallery this May. I think Bryan and I are going to try and be up there for the gallery opening. It would be so exciting to see some of the other rings in person and to meet a few of the friends I made online through this challenge.

Skeletal Beauties

Creations from French designer Jean Charles De Castelbajac's Fall-Winter ready-to-wear 2012 fashion collection, presented in Paris, Tuesday, March 8, 2011

My mouth dropped when I saw these two outfits, just amazing. I would totally wear either one!! The only thing that would make these even better is some Amuck jewelry, don't you think?
