I love the old stuff. It is all about the outing to a vintage shop or sale, hunting and finding those great old treasures, rearranging my own home decor to include some, and passing on others through my shop.
I have a creative streak that has appeared periodically throughout my life. In recent years, and because I enjoy working with tools so much, I decided it may be time for me to further explore my artistic side and possibly transition into a “career” that involves my passion to build things, paint things or rather, give them new life. I have a selection of my repurposed or upcycled pieces listed here.
I love jewelry; a passion I inherited from my mother. I collect vintage jewelry and design my own. I create jewelry from gemstones, different metals, crystals and vintage jewelry that is partially damaged. You will find both vintage jewelry and my assemblages here.
I indulge in collecting rocks. I have several polishers that run non-stop, and have now listed some of the results from the polishers in here. I have a massive number of gemstone beads now listed in the Salvage and Supply section of my shop.
