Ignorant Ass Landlord
I mentioned before that we will be moving out and into a new high-rise building. The real reason that we’re moving is due to the owners. While I think that Helen Furst owns this side of the triplex, it was her husband (owner of the building attached) George Furst that we dealt with just a ...

Blue Pearl Necklace
Lately I’ve felt like making chain necklaces, so here’s another one. This one has a mix of blue freshwater pearls and larger sparkly blue glass beads to give it a mix. I know a lot of people whose favourite colour is blue, so I decided it was time to make a blue necklace that wasn’t ...

Long Chunky Gemstones
Today I started doing a bit of organizing of the jewellery-making room. As I was organizing I picked up some chunky gemstones that I’d bought a while ago but hadn’t yet made anything. So instead of doing some more organizing, I had to do some more necklace making. In reality, I became the model just ...

Welcome 2012
What do you do on New Year’s Eve? You go out in public to celebrate instead of staying home. You decide that the place that’s closest to home is the best place to go, especially when you can drink if you want to because you’re going to take the TTC to that close place. And ...
