“Okay Caroline, these for now, those for later.” For this project I was given at least 5 spare band aids for my tragic fingers. The upside of this current project is that i've been building some slight arm muscle! I like to call it my man hobby, much like I’m one of the boys except with chicken arms, and a desirous tendency to girly dance after every finished project. Just for the record, i'm way cooler than i sound, i swear!

Materials: sea shells collected along the queen charlotte Islands.

Last sunday my friend Laura and I shared a booth, selling our handmade goodies alongside quite a few other local artist'. Positively inspiring! I'm always so fascinated by watching other artist' at work; in viewing thier different/similar approaches and techniques with similar/different mediums and material.
This here is a small branch that Laura had found and stuck into a pottery mold, used to hang our jewelery from! Such a good idea! I might just do that also; for hanging my own stuff at home!

Diamond beaded earrings

materials: Delica beads and porcupine quills

My good friend Sibila, who's getting married this summer in Serbia!!!, wanted a fushia wedding dress~ in which i thought was very appropriate! She's got a lot spunk and personality, so with that she'd totally rock it. Her fiance and family however.. weren't so keen.
SO! i offered to make her some fushia earrings intead to spiff and sparkle her up a little. <3

Headband

On the numerous suggestions of "you should make it a headband"
Well, i did. and it actually turned out to be a dazzling idea! Thanks you guys. I basically took the embroidered quill bracelet technique and made it longer. I almost don't want to sell it. But, my physical health depends on this income, a girls gotta eat right? That and my savings account for a one way ticket to Europe. Okay, maybe not one a way...i'll most likely make it a two way...maybe.
