Whether I am working in traditional fine art arenas or the more local Saturday in the Park arts & crafts arenas, I look to the past cottage industry for influences and to the arts & crafts industry to bridge the technique and material gap.
Many months ago I saw some info on a trend of making jewelry stemware markers. I thought this was a very trendy idea that non-commercial artists were promoting. I had no idea what these items would look like but I sort of filed the intro idea in my cluttered brain cells for another day.
Yesterday, I was out and I saw a commercial store box with these markers. I was not excited at all. They looked cheap. So now I am looking to do at least one set of my own and see what happens.
I realize I am going to need wire, beads, charms and a pair of pliers.
Watch for my new line this coming summer.
