I have some fabulous new journals in the studio now and online tomorrow.
Back in the day, those orchestra people really knew how to make an album cover, I have to say.

These make great gifts.

I recently had a chat with someone who came into my office, which I found rather depressing. She complained that her children "weren't going to have Christmas this year" unless she did her shopping at the local dollar store. I thought to myself.... "Seriously???"

Dollar stores. Have you ever taken note of the smell in most of those places? Take a whiff! It's the smell of "Hello I'm... Read more

I prefer to use either sterling or fine silver. There are so many options for components it literally will make your head spin. How do you know the actual composition of your componet pieces?
