Good afternoon to one and all..... hope all goes well and you're ready for the storm tomorrow! As most of you likely know, I've added yet another obsession over the last few years as I seem to have dove head first into weaving. It certainly was good to have something else to keep me occupied during the Covid lockdowns in between jewelry making adventures...... especially as I had some trouble getting jewelry making supplies!!! Spent some time the last few days working on my "new to me" Leclerc Colonial loom (this is loom number three if anyone is keeping count.... yep head first!). I'm still trying to tweek the loom setup to get it weaving nicely so that I need to use fewer words while using it ;-) Of course, I had to try out a new weave structure as well! Whatcha think so far? Take care and please stay safe in the storm.....

It was a wet day outside so I was busy downstairs in the shop..... finishing up some copper bracelets. Hope you visit us during the upcoming South Niagara Artists Fall Studio Tour on October 1st & 2nd. It's worth the drive to Stevensville!!! . . . . . #WhisperingElmsStudio #SouthNiagaraArtists #studiotour #artistsofniagara #niagaraart #niagarageopark #geoparkliving #artisanjewelry #jewellery #niagaraartisan #jewelry #jewellery #artinniagara #artisanjewelry #ItsWorthTheDriveToStevensvilleON #stevenvilleon https://www.instagram.com/p/CitNNeDuKYK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thought I'd share a quick picture of one of my latest creations...... a tree bark textured Sterling Silver cuff bracelet. I'm having a great time exploring texture with my Fretz hammers!!!

Another busy day in the studio. Spent this morning trying to get the gallery (formerly known as the garage!) in order. Spent the afternoon in the shop making a couple pairs of darling little earrings. Rumour has it not everyone does big and bold ;-) Hmmmm....... which earrings do you like best? The South Niagara Artists Summer Studio Tour is next weekend..... soooo much yet to do!!!!!

Finishing up a few projects this morning for next weekend's South Niagara Artists Summer Studio Tour. These funky little earrings are made from one of a kind components I cast a while ago. My biggest challenge was drilling holes in them! What do you think?! . . . . .#WhisperingElmsStudio #southniagaraartists #studiotour #artistsofniagara #niagaraartist #niagarageopark #geoparkliving #artisanjewelry #jewellery #jewelleryaddict #jewelrylove #jewellerylover #artinniagara #niagaratourism #studiotourprep #ItsWorthTheDriveToStevensvilleON #niagaraart #niagaraartisans #jewelry #silverearrings #silversmithing #makersgonnamake #supportlocal #buysmallbusiness #supportlocalbusiness https://www.instagram.com/p/CgrmXB_u0sG/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Another busy day in the basement studio hiding away from the heat. Made a couple copper cuff bracelets and worked on a pair of silver earrings that I hope will be finished up in time for the South Niagara Artists Summer Studio Tour. Think I best take a few days away from smithing before the carpal tunnel starts howling !!! Maybe I'll cut grass for a change of scenery ;-) Have a GREAT weekend !!! https://www.instagram.com/p/CgVKSu5OOF3/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Busy afternoon in the studio hiding out away from the heat wave. Finished polishing a couple statement cuffs that I've been working on. Getting ready for South Niagara Artists Summer Studio Tour in a couple weeks (YIKES!). Any idea what tree barks I was trying to capture the texture of? . . . . #WhisperingElmsStudio #SouthNiagaraArtists #studiotour #artistsofniagara #niagaraart #niagarageopark #geoparkliving #artisanjewelry #jewellery #treebark #treebarkart #treebarklovers #artinniagara #statementjewellery #statementbracelets #statementcuffbracelets #niagaratourism #artinniagara #studiotourprep #niagaraartisans #ItsWorthTheDriveToStevensvilleON https://www.instagram.com/p/CgSf8tJOWB8/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Thought I'd share a quick pic of a few enamelled pendants I finished up over the last few days. Yep I'm in the sprint to the South Niagara Artists Summer Studio Tour on August 6th and 7th. Plus, it's Okinawa hot outside and it sure is nice hide out in the basement studio ;-) . . . . .#WhisperingElmsStudio #southniagaraartists #studiotour #artistsofniagara #niagaraart #niagarageopark #geoparkliving #artisanjewelry #jewellery #enamel #enamelledjewellery #studiotourprep #ilovejewelry #niagaratourism #artinniagara #artisan #artisanjewelry #niagaraartisans https://www.instagram.com/p/CgM-OcsOCAm/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
