More Fun Fused Jewellry






The earrings are made by my younger sister Crystal, not the best pictures to show off how great they are, sorry. She makes really great earrings to go with her necklaces. Hopefully we will get more pictures up before the end of the week to show off more of her talent. Then the necklace is one I did with purple heart dichoric glass on top of plain purple glass and finished it with soldering decoration. I believe the earrings are $10.00 (plus what ever shipping is) and the necklace is $30.00 (plus what ever shipping is). The earrings are hypo allergenic ( I believe that is the word for it). Wish I had more time to talk, but lunch break is over and I need to go and teach. Thanks for looking -Misty

Another Fab Ring






Here is another ring from my older Sister December. For the last two days I've worn one of her rings for the entire day of teaching art and they have stood the test of toughness. Between clay, painting, kids touching it, examining it and anything else they can do to it, these rings are durable. Email us directly if you are interested in buying!-Misty

Go Crazy, Do Something Different




As we (The Sisters Three) start a new art I soon need to find ways to make it different. Here is an example of that, one night I was playing with taking a piece of fused glass and wrapping it with solder. This piece was inspired by my Goth niece and really liked the way it turned out. I encourage you for fun Friday to create a piece of art that you would never have done on your own. Think about a person who marches to a different drummer than you and do something that they would wear or hang. Good luck, feel free to post you creative fun Friday piece! -Misty

Glass Fusion Ring





Here is a new hot item for sell, my older sister does these rings. She fuses the glass then attatches them securely to the ring back. They are fun and can come in any color. I've worn mine all day and have had lots of compliments. Be watching for them to show up here in the blog with prices in the next couple of days. -Misty

Dollar short but Never Late

I know this is Friday and How to Thursdays happen on Thursdays which was yesterday, but I thought this was a very helpful tutorial. Hope it helps you with your color combinations. http://craftsanity.com/pdf/colorstory.pdf

Something Different


Got any old clothes or fabrics not being used? Create a rag weaving out of them, maybe a place matt or if you have enough an actual rug out of them. I think weaving is a great way to relax and clear the mind. I find after weaving I have a clear feeling and this allows me to start a fresh project with nothing blocking my vision. So get out that weird and wacky fabric you will never truly use in a piece of art or maybe that shirt you can't wear anymore but was a great pattern and weave away!

To be Young Again Challenge


Alright you crazy crafting artists, here is your Fun Friday challenge. This one will be easy if you have girly girl daughters (or sons I guess), dress up to the nines and take a picture of yourself (or have someone do it for you). This will be very therapeutic and inspirational. Good luck and if anyone is brave post your pictures for us to see! -Misty
