About

I use the ancient techniques of basket making to create what I like to call eye candy. The common thread woven through each piece is a touch of whimsy.
Mixed fibers sewn and coiled around pine needles to form intricate patterns incorporating a mixture of wires, stones, and beads.
Beauty and artistry pure and simple.
