Ode to the Wire Artisans Guild

Oh you lovely wire queens,

All your works are simply dreams.

Each piece made with such skill

For your talents I would kill.



Oh Wire Artisans Guild,

I pray your ranks aren't filled

That among the chosen few,

You'll let me slide in too.



If my application you deny,

I fear I'll surely cry.

So don't shun me artists awsome,

When in your guild I'll surely blossom.




*The Wire Artisans Guild of Etsy is currently accepting applications for ten open spots. I've got my fingers crossed!*

Something New

As I said in my New Year's post, I've had a few new ideas brewing. This is the latest:



I just listed this guy on Etsy, and it's the first listing in a new series of animal items I'm working on. I did a few basic pieces as gifts for Christmas, and in the piece above, I took it a step further, incorporating weave and stones within the piece.

I'm very excited about these new animal pieces, and I hope they go over well.

Off and Running!

That's right, I'm already working on kicking my New Year's craft resolutions into high gear. Yesterday I spent HOURS taking photos, editing photos, working on my website, and putting up two new listings on Etsy. I hope to do some more today, but I feel like I'm finally on the right track.

If you have the time, please take a peek at my new website www.ravenworksstudio.com , and tell me what you think about the format, photos etc. Any feedback is greatly appreciated!
