Glitterfairy in Studios Magazine - Winter 2010


Am thrilled to show you 
the latest Studios Magazine, 
a wonderful journal about, 
you guessed it,  
artist's studios. 

I am featured in an article 
on page 45, 
entitled "artists make merry!"
It's a very nice five-page spread, 
with lots of pictures 
of my workspace and glittergoods.


(Thanks to Peggy Garbus 
I have a decent new head-shot!)

This mag is stuffed full of 
great pictures and articles 
about a variety of artists, 
including a sweet friend of mine,
and fellow Artsy Girl, 
Susan Borgen of tpartyantiques
who transformed an 
old Hoosier cabinet into 
a stylish studio!
  
Also featured is another friend, 
Maggie Swanson
who is an amazing children's book 
and product illustrator 
and fellow Artsy Girl.
  You can see her spread 
on page 110.

Studios/Winter 2010 is published by
cloth.paper.scissors
and is available in bookstores, 
craft stores or online 
  
I picked up my very own copy yesterday 
at Barnes & Nobles.

Take a look yourself!

Fall Fabulousness!


Made this beautiful wreath 
for Faye Kim Designs in Westport, CT. 
You must check out her absolutely amazing work!  
Faye is a gifted jeweler and her shop
overflows with burnished gold, diamonds, precious stones
and truly reflects her passion. 

This glittery wreath 
was originally for the front door 
of her spanking new location, 
but she loved it so much that she 
decided to keep it inside the shop!

It is bursting with golden artichokes, 
bronze pomegranates & large acorns 
and of course, I had to include 
a sweet bird's nest with bronzed acorns!
It is accented with a splash 
of Midori double-faced satin ribbon in Fig.  

A single gilded butterfly sits atop a pomegranate!

Wish I had time to make one 
for my own front door!
