Being hands-on in my line of business is not unusual – it’s necessary, it’s one of the main reasons that I don’t prim myself up with fancy manicures or nail polish, why bother. 

I am not talking about being just the decision maker or collaborator for products at the gallery, but the main know-it-all for all facets of the gallery production; from products to the framing of artwork, printer malfunction maintenance, design and what products would work and what’s practical and affordable.

Many many moons ago while working in high tech, I started dabbling in jewelry that I liked to wear and had fun creating it, so I got into the wirewrapping jewelry with unique found glass beads and assorted colors and style of wires. As the years have passed and venturing into many other styles of artwork and creative mediums, I found my wirewrapping toolbox and was excited to get back into creating an array of fun wild designs.

Creating is addicting, simply said. There is no other way to say it, you either love it and absorb yourself into it, or you don’t. When you have the right tools and accessories to create, it’ makes it more enjoyable, the possibilities are endless and then you realize that with any project or creation, you’ve burned daylight and need to get rest and eat.

As the bandaids adhere onto worn fingers from this craft the ideas never subside. As the displays of these little colorful gems glisten in the gallery the interest peaks and they often find new bodies to adorn.  The pendants and bracelets are individually named based on the mood of the piece. If you have the opportunity to venture into the gallery, you will meet up with some “Sexy Citrus” or  “The Bermuda Triangle” and perhaps get a delightful earful on some new fun rappin’ tunes that are featured on the gallery playlist – hey you gotta get the “wrappin”  inspiration when you can. (Thank you Eminem!)

If you an online guest, then we have the pieces listed on Etsy.com and can easily be acquired using your paypal account!  So get that sassyness on and see what’s “glowing” to make you look fabulously fresh this summer season!
