Horse Hair Pottery!

Just finished two pieces featuring the hair from my niece’s horses in Colorado. (Twister and Daisy kindly donated some of their hair after grooming!) Special thanks to their owner Jill!

These pots will be donated to a local charity fundraising event: The Lupus Alliance of Upstate New York (LAUNY) Diva’s Treat Raffle

In Production Mode…

Have been a bit busy creating new items for 2018 show season (March through December)

Having lots of fun re-purposing antique Art Nouveau (and some Art Deco) silver plate into pendants and rings. I love the floral detailing and attempting to learn the pattern names!
