This Weeks Featured Shop Fine Threads

Here's a little about myself:I always enjoyed crafts, even at a young age. When I started crocheting I couldn't stop and kept trying crocheting different things but still couldn't quite capture the final product. It was then I decided to take a class and after the teacher told me how even my stitches were, I crocheted and crocheted. I still can't remember when I started crocheting with thread but I know this is my favorite yarn to use.I sold my ornaments at craft fairs for years and did very well. I've been crocheting over 30 years now and still love creating new items.

I have been a photographer for over 25 years and have shown my photographs in shows all over the world. I have even won an occasional prize. I travel a lot and get an opportunity to capture images world wide. Recently I have started to explored mixed media collage and making miniature art which are sold as ACEO ( art cards the size of baseball trading cards that people collect). In addition , I have started to make wearable art from my photographs and vintage images in the form of recycled game tile pendants.In real life I am a happy wife and mother. In my professional life I am a licensed marriage and family therapist and I have a private practice. I specialize in children and adults who have ADHD.

I started making photographic pendants necklaces this year because I love to wear art and thought others might enjoy it too. Each pendant is handmade by me. I started with a recycled rummy-o game tile, paint, reduce down a photograph, seal, add Swarovski crystals and a silver plated bail, and sign and date the back.Just lmk which photos you would like and I will send them to you.
