So, in my last post I told you I was super busy making some prototypes for some new designs… remember? Well, here are a couple of them.
I've been playing around with laser cutting some of my designs into wood. These particular ones are made using New Zealand Rimu wood, which is sustainable and not on the list of endangered plant species :-)
As the lasers burn through the wood, etching the designs into the wood, it leaves a warm romantic scent of campfire behind, which I love. I started out with some very basic designs as I needed to see how this medium lent itself to my designs.
Now I know what works and what doesn't work so well… it's made it easier for me to go mad designing a whole bunch of new pieces. Lots of animals, lots of new words, lots more fun, lots of people. I'm looking forward too more new designs being ready for release. Hopefully in May!!
So see you soon with more designs and styles including brooches, necklaces, earrings, bangles and rings :-)
If you're after a particular initial on a brooch or earrings, let me know before April 16th, 2010, and I should be able to accommodate your custom requests :-)
You can find these designs and others in my Etsy store HERE and my Dawanda store HERE
Tune in next time for some more updates on what I've been up to and the new designs that are on their way :-)
