Playing with goldwork embroidery materials and techniques. The materials dramatically change the embroidery process. #goldworkembroidery #gold #fibersisthebest #fiberart #embroidery https://www.instagram.com/p/B425WqlFYbR/?igshid=18x0jana37me3

Hold on to your butts people! I have been meaning to post stuff for ages, but grad school is insane. I have the flu and have been stuck at home for days now so brace yourself for a bunch of posts. First up....my Christmas cactus is blooming!!! #flowers #cactus #houseplants #christmascactus #blooming #plants https://www.instagram.com/p/B422n0_FZtE/?igshid=gr3lyw2xpup1

Lots going on. I haven’t been good about posting what I am working on lately. I am going to attempt to post more, but we will see...grad school is sort of all consuming :/ Aaaaanyway here is a goldwork embroidery necklace I made recently. I already have a few commissions. DM if you are interested in ordering one. I will be making earrings, brooches, and bracelets too. #goldwork #embroidery #necklace #crystal #statementnecklace #glamour #baroque #fibersisthebest #fiberjewelry #fiberart #embroideryjewelry https://www.instagram.com/p/B2cn2wolNuN/?igshid=180b7jflodnl4
