the atomic garden

Are you wondering what I've been doing?

We moved to a new place at the end of February, and we are in the midst of renovating it on our own.

I miss working with clay, but all of my supplies are still packed and I don't have any room to work yet ):

A month in, I'm fed up with spackling and painting and I just want things to be all done 😭 DIY is so hard, especially with cheaply built old houses.

Every leaf I make is unique. I don't use cutters! No, sir!⁠

The more I look at these pieces I've made, the more I think of Hawai'. Even if I have never been 🌊⁠

⁠

I can't believe we have to wait for like a year to see Season 2 of @shoyellowjackets 😭⁠
⁠

This is a very old piece I had around for a few years - I never actually exposed it anywhere!⁠

Calcifer brooch, from the marvelous movie Howl's Moving Castle!⁠
⁠
🔥

Halloween-ready, everyone?!⁠
I am super excited, as I will be vending the day before Halloween at a craft market in SALEM, MA! 😱⁠
⁠

I haven't been able to take any picture of my latest creations - mostly because I was CONVINCED Ladiescon was this past Saturday 🤣

So everything is packed ready for in-person showing and I've been too lazy to unpack in order to snap pics.

Anyhow, come visit me at Ladiescon next Saturday!

Tiara/headband piece a kid kindly modeled for me

The blueberry earrings were the first ones to find a home at @somervilleopenstudios :D yay!⁠
⁠

I am trying to make smaller succulent earrings!⁠
⁠
⁠

my ongoing blueberry-themed production culminated in a new bracelet! I'm quite proud of the result.⁠
⁠

I'm at it again, and this time they didn't burn out!⁠
⁠
⁠

Succulent rings? Yes, please!⁠
⁠
This is the first time I attempt to make succulent rings! They are mounted on an adjustable base and honestly... they are glorious!⁠
