Upcycled earrings with vintage record charms (Japanese, 1960s) paired with jet black Swarovski crystals and niobium hooks! :0) Kitsch + Glam. https://www.etsy.com/shop/artsyletters?ref=hdr_shop_menu&search_query=record
Bonjour! What time is it in France? These fun earrings feature an image copied from an antique page in my collection which has clock faces representing the time differences between 12 o’clock in Washington D. C., and various cities around the world (A. J. Johnson). “Air-line” distances to Washington appear in their centers. This diagram was published in an atlas in the 1860s – before there were standardized time zones!
The pale green Paris clock image shines under glass cabochons in antiqued brass lace-edged settings, with dark vintage clock hands dangling beneath.
I enjoyed “Double Jointed” on Sunday – a wonderful 6-hour online workshop by Seth Apter. Here are a few photos of the book I made. You can find a video of my flipping through the whole book on my artsyletters Facebook page. :0) (Some elements include various papers and collage, block prints and stamps from letterpress blocks, fabric, linen thread, transparencies, paints and gelli printed images, an altered wax seal sent with some wax I ordered, and some tiny metal beads from a 1920s (?) purse.)
Happy Spring! April is bursting with blooms and fun. For one thing, it’s National Poetry Month! And, it’s Solar Eclipse Time! Feel free to peruse a few new French-themed items in my shop (April in Paris & all), as well as a new bookmark with a celestial theme.
And, all month long, use Coupon Code POETRYMONTH24 for 10 percent off in my Etsy shop. Bon Printemps!
Many thanks to all who have supported artsyletters over the years! Looking forward to another busy holiday season. I’ll be posting new items in these next few weeks; perhaps they’ll be bound for stockings or family gatherings. I’m beyond grateful to be able to create for a living. Wishing you and yours a lovely November!
