Designing Through Life

My shop, my interests and all the things that make me...me. The words that fill my mind, the pictures that caught my eye, the things my hands create. All in one chaotic place on the web. Check out my shop @ AnneStanDesigns.etsy.com to see what I create.

I’ve been having a lot of fun making these little trinket bowls. These are the newest fall designs. #etsy #etsyshop #etsyseller #etsysellersofinstagram #bronze #bronzemetalclay #metalclay #metalclaybowls #trinketdish #trinketbowls (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CjmA1Lap-CX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The weather finally cooperated and allowed me to make some really special items. While these won’t be available on my Etsy, I will be selling them locally. But if you so happen to be interested just shoot me a dm #metalclay #metalclaybowls #etsy #etsyseller #handcrafted #handmade #etsyshop #shoplocal #bronzemetalclay (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/Ch8GdXHPjpP/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Been busy making new things. As much as I love jewelry, I love making barrettes just as much. Because what is a barrette but jewelry for your hair. Not sure when they’ll be available in my #etsy so think of this as a sneak peek. #etsyshop #etsyseller #etsysellersofinstagram #metalclay #bronzemetalclay #coppermetalclay #handcrafted #hairaccessories #annestandesigns (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CctomL6PhaT/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

All my pendants start here. I trace the shape of the stone on a piece of card stock, a recycled box from cereal and the like, or notecards. I trace that shape a few times with a marker then cut it out. Next step coming soon #metalclay #metalclayjewelry #metalclaystudio #etsy #etsyshop #etsysellersofinstagram #etsyseller #etsysellerusa (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CMFpdjvhdwG/?igshid=1dp8v526azobb

Metal clay bowls part 2. These are fresh out of the kiln and have yet to be cleaned. And while I’ll miss the rainbow the coconut carbon produced, I know they’ll look better after a good cleaning. Stay tuned... #metal_clay #metal_clay_artists #metalclay #metalclayartists #metalclayart #bronzemetalclay #etsy #etsyseller #etsyshop (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLvBAY-Biye/?igshid=zb3u3sxjvlrt

Almost all of my designs start with a simple drawing on a piece of scratch foam, even my little trinket bowls. #metalclay #bronzemetalclay #metalclayartist #etsy #etsyseller #etsyshop #handcrafted #handcraftedmetalclayjewelry #handcraftedmetalclay #newdesign (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CLdJW_ABG00/?igshid=82efkf4jmij2

All fired and ready for cleaning. My little bowls have come to be. Stay tuned for the final stage #metal clay (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CELRL25n5NT/?igshid=1c4r5i2orqfms

Taking a break from the jewelry making to make metal clay bowls. If the kiln loves me, they will be beautiful. If the weather stops with the 90 degrees, I’ll be able to see if the kiln loves me (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/CEAcr3GhpEq/?igshid=gf8m4uv1kb6f

I’ve been trying to show my work in all of the stages of its formation. From green ware to just out the kiln then after cleaning to it’s final stage with the stone set. I forgot to capture two of those stages but I think it still captures the beauty. #metalclay #etsy #etsyseller #etsyshop #metalclayjewelry #crazylaceagate #chrysocolla #kaleidoscopejasper #jasper #agate #handcraftedjewelry #coppermetalclay #opthandmade #shopsmall (at Eatonville, Washington) https://www.instagram.com/p/B9fpoiyHhBo/?igshid=10smj4awcuh6m
