Art on Sunset Booth

With the help of family and friends I got the B Sides Metal booth together. I have a bunch of new ideas for my next show and can't wait.

New Items on Etsy

I am back and in action after recuperating for a day from Art on Sunset bliss. I had a wonderful show. Thanks to all who came. I am now posting again on Etsy and hope to post daily. This new addition was designed with my mom in mind. She enjoys it! I call it Peach and Pearl Blossom.

I have been having a lot of fun photographing my new items and hope to give slight changes to my Etsy shop image within the next few weeks.

Floral Victorian Violets

This piece has exquisite details of patina on stamped floral brass pieces as well as a carved glass cameo. I love the way this piece hangs on when wearing it. The cool colors are beautiful complements to the garden imagery.

Morning Song

This antiqued brass piece is light and elegant. The spring time theme makes for a beautiful addition to blouses and dresses. Hanging from the bottom of the pendant is a sand blasted glass leaf bead. This piece will be featured at Art on Sunset this weekend.

Featured on Etsy Finds and Gift Guides

I was featured in Etsy Finds today and within 6 hours I received over 800 hits on my piece of jewelry. I was also featured in a link for Mother's Day (the Jewelry for Mothers Gift Guides). This is an amazing week and a wonderful time for my business! I am so grateful. This item was the linked item.

Morning Sunrise

Today when I awoke I was thrilled to post new pictures of my B Vintage line. Everyday this week, as I count down to Art on Sunset, I am going to post a new B Vintage piece. Art on Sunset is Scheduled for this coming Saturday, April 25th from 9 am -4 pm in downtown Asheboro, NC on Sunset Ave. I will have over 80 pieces of jewelry with me. Be sure to stop by if you can make it.

These earrings which I call Morning Sunrise are made from a vintage German glass bead and brass. The yellow color is amazing. The earrings are bright, cheerful and perfect for a summer day.
