They look exactly as pictured, and I look forward to wearing them! They arrived very quickly. The seller is great. She shared her enthusiasm about her work, and I can see why the earrings are fabulous, unique, and beautiful. Love, Love, Love them. I highly recommend this seller!

Where Old Newspaper comes to life.

Retired and doing what I love!

I designed Seasonal Decor in Asia for more than 30 years. Thousands of items a year for factories to make, but I was always sad at the loss of character and detail. Now I have a venue to express what I really like to do!
Paper Mâché.
Wire armatures with wads of paper shaped to form a base, layered many times with strips of glued news paper, one by one, until strong. Layers of paint, sealers, glitter...what ever the thing growing out of the wad of paper needs to come alive.
I like to add bases of odd bits and pieces of old glass, ceramic, brass, wood, books.....that I find at junk sales and swap meets. Clean 'me up, add some paint, glitter, leaf..? Gives the piece a little weight and interest and sound footing. Some get eyelashes, others jewelry, sassy skirts..... wings!
All pieces have a sturdy armature and are connected securely to their bases. Each piece has a stamped metal 'LSF' tag and is dated. All One of a Kind. And a labor of love.
