I know how many of you come to visit and appreciate my works. I get requests for custom pieces daily, the best ideas from my customers get made and posted here. I couldn't have done this without you. I am truly blessed by having you as my friends.
I've upgraded my about page, for those who want to see the process of me making an eye frame. You can find it here on Etsy.

Good news for those who have been so surprised at the priority shipping charges. I've purchased first class box mailers and will be shipping now first class mail. It was just too much to ask my Canadian and European customers to pay so much for shipping. Even with me supplimenting the charges, it just was over the top. For those who want a priority shipping box and shipping, I will be happy to send you an invoice for the extra amount.
For those who have been begging me to allow them to order my glass without wire, I now have single and double glass sets at my new store, The Twisted Eye. You can find it through a link at
https://www.etsy.com/shop/TheTwistedEye
I have also found help in translating orders. I ship all over the world, and sometimes communication through email is difficult. Here's a wonderful tool, that you can choose your language and then translate it into English. I can also write in English, and have it translated into other languages. Please let me know what language you speak, and I will try to communicate to you in your language.

I have been published nationally, in Step By Step Wire Jewelry Magazine, by Interweave Press. Be sure to look up the article on my Sterling Silver Woven Wire Twist Bracelet, in the December/January 2011 issue!!
My work is different and one of a kind. It has beauty and strength that will be remarked upon each time it's worn.

5 out of 5 starsPerfect as always. And I received super fast all the way from the West Coast to the East. I purchased this in the hopes that it would match a necklace bought a while ago and even though the sparkle is slightly different, the base color matches perfectly, so very excited that I now have a set. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you! I still don't know how you "knit" the wire so perfectly. You amaze me in your artistry. Please take care of you! <3

Most jewelry makers start with raw materials, as do I. Wire in spools need to be cut and measured to appropriate length. -

For an eye frame, I work with 4 20 gauge wire, weaving all 4 for the first pass, turning the bottom 2. -
![]()
I weave the bottom 2, bend back 1, and then weave over 3, several passes to make the upper brows. -

I pass the 4th wire, back to make a base for the glass eye, glueing the eye in once finished work is done. -

Finished frame, with an eye waiting to be set.
A Look at Twisted Sister Arts
Well, since I'm coming up on 11 years on Etsy, I thought it was time to share some of my processes. Not many of you realize I make my work, by weaving wire into frames and swirls, to hold my chosen medium. Using basic tools, and other tools that I have made, I work daily in my studio, creating works of art and whimsey. Yes, I do add pieces to embellish and florish my weavings, but each one is drilled with care, to disguise my holes. Many times I get asked how long it took to make this piece, and I will let you know I can make an eye frame in 1 1/2 hours, from cutting the wire, to listing it.
I've been creating wire designs for 10 years, and self employed for five. It has given me great joy to have almost 15,000 admirers, each looking and appreciating what I've created. I hope to someday be able to teach my method to others, so that they could make their own works.

Frequently asked questions
Custom and personalized orders
YES! I do my own work, so I'll be happy to discuss what I do and what I don't or can't do. Much of my work is custom pieces, you can see many of those finished work on my Facebook page, www.facebook.com/twistedsisterarts
The time to make something will range from one day to two weeks. Usually 2 to 3 days will do it. Keep in mind, the older piece to copy, might not be able to be fulfilled due to ever changing stampings, and my paint is seasonable, when it's gone, it's gone.
When it comes to painting the glass eyes, I will be happy to try several tries to make your preferred color. Just don't ask me to match my kitty or boyfriends eyes, the paints I use don't lend itself to blending or matching.
Sizing details
I really try to post the size of the piece in a listing, if you don't see it in the description, point it out to me, I'm not perfect.
Care instructions
Most of my work is able to be washed with soap and water. That in mind, it won't take a swim or a soak in a hot tub, but general care is necessary to keep the piece intact.
Gift wrapping and packaging
I gift box my smaller pieces. I've got boxes up to 4x6 inches that fit in my packing boxes. I like the presentation and the fact that it will make a piece safer to send to you.
Wholesale availability
I've done some wholesale, who wouldn't like a big order to fill. Don't expect me to discount one or two items for one order. I understand the need to see a piece before placing a big order, contact me and I'll discuss it with you.
