Sometimes I wonder what I did to deserve to be so lucky.
First of all, look at how damn cute my kids are:
(Aidan as Cleopatra)
(Alice as... Brian Setzer? She refused to wear a costume so we just went with a punk/rockabilly theme. She played the part pretty well, don't you think?)
This was the first year that she actually walked to trick or treat.

(her tattoo says "moms")
Aidan liked that she got to wear makeup.

In the studio this week I've been working on way too many projects and have only finished one of them. A going away gift for my dear friend Aimee:
(sterling and dyed coral)
I feel so lucky to have met her and gotten to know her during her time here in Lawrence. She's an incredibly talented artist, she's (as Foxy put it last night) devastatingly funny, and best of all, our families get along together perfectly. In fact, they feel more like family than friends. (but the kind of family that gets along, not the kind of family that's full of drama and conflict! ;) ).
We're going to miss them terribly.
But I can't wait to visit. I'll finally make it to NYC!
Safe travels, Artysville girls! We love you!!

(PS. I will be listing some of these Aimee-inspired dangles in the shop too!)
Your family's friendship has meant the world to me. Love my earrings- wearing them now! I will miss you all so much!
ReplyDeleteAimee, Lawrence won't be the same without you! But our loss is NJ's gain... xo
ReplyDeleteOh how I wish I could have come to Lawrence while Aimee was still there! Just a hop skip and jump...now I must go to NJ to, one day, meet her! The earrings are just beautiful, as is all of your work :)
ReplyDeleteDo you have your work in any shops there...will be visiting Lawrence in the not too distant future....
:) kp
Thank you Kristen! No, not in any physical shops yet. I'm working on building up my inventory before approaching brick and mortar shops. One of these days!
ReplyDeleteLOVE the earrings! They are soooo Aimee!
ReplyDeleteCarmen, they are, aren't they?! I challenged myself to come up with a design that combined a little bit of Aimee and a little bit of me and I think I managed!
