here comes the bride

a good friend had me create these

7 necklaces for her wedding party

i'm revealing them to her tomorrow

and hope she likes the final outcome !

managed to not break too many saw blades 0;)

letting things come naturally

i've been playing with these earrings (or the idea of them) for a while now.

making little trinkets for me

with no purpose but to observe and collect

but these popped up 3 weeks ago.

they've finally translated into wearables!

in the meantime i'd been debating on selfishly keeping them

and have decided, that i wish for them to find a new happy dwelling.

as such, these little fellows will be listed later this evening.

on a different note: 4 weeks of classes remain this semester

i'm ready for a little rejuvenation in the studio!

xx,

Lynsey

:: edit ::

i'm having a hard time putting these up.

but will do so tonight! promise!

and the sky opened up

what a gift last night :

on my way home from doing my first lecture

(which was enjoyable. yay!)

i looked up from my commute...

having to stop immediately

clouds were moving quickly as was the sun

only minutes exist at this time of evening

it was pause or pass

obviously, i paused. got out of my car

breathed in deeply

the wind helped rush the cool air into my lungs

filling them up effortlessly

i wish for more moments like these

where i feel connected to natural elements

even in the city

xx,

Lynsey

Fresh from zee Kiln

I'm infatuated with the autumnal colors right now. They're popping up in my drawings and definitely in my studio. so happy to work with a medium which allows me to try translating nature's colors into wearables :)

You can find them here, in my shop

Hope your weekend so spent enjoy the outdoors!

We're heading to watch my little brother play ruby tomorrow.

(likely in the rain and mud... which makes for an interesting event)

xo,

Lynsey

more in store: filling the virtual shelves

good news: these little beauties just hit the shop this evening :)

other news:. i miss my torch.

i'm bringing it back after the weekend.

the torch I use in the university's studio is out-of-commission

it's left me feeling unsettled and unsure of my technique

funny how quick i get to know equipment as a collaborator in the process.

i depend on it being constant and predictable

a flame to companion my work

yes, there are other torches available here.

however, these are far too cumbersome and hot for the precise work i need

i worry about disappointing my buyers

it is a heavy feeling.

i want each person to enjoy their purchase

creations from my mind, heart, and hands

can't wait to travel 200 miles to get that little flame!

into the woods

i needed a getaway this weekend.

this semester i feel pulled in many directions.

- all i want to do is make art and be with the man i love -

nature has been a refuge. on days when i feel low. i head for the hills, lake, willow tree.

anywhere outside.

thank God this October we've been blessed with the most pleasant weather.

the smell of fall is something to look forward to

earth leaving us with a senses overload

before it hibernates

Patrick and I took a brilliant hike this weekend...

colors, sounds, and smells were incredible.

Patrick was a trooper. tiring of my taking his photo

(i can't help it... we only get to see each other on weekends during the school year. i need photos)

hope the season is treating you well!

xo,
