Omniglot Studio: Wilda-button
http://omniglotstudio.blogspot.com/2013/04/wilda-button.html
View my complete profile. Tuesday, April 23, 2013. Wilda-Button, vintage button with copper and glass necklace (sold 11/09). A relic in the brush. Bone-toned button swings from a wishbone-shaped brass connector. Neckline a mixture of African copper, mahogany seed beads and art wire, and a double strand of "oxidized" black enamel chain. The unique wishbone shaped brass connector above the button came from an old pair of earrings I took apart a while back, and I'm happy to give it a second life.

Omniglot Studio: October 2009
http://omniglotstudio.blogspot.com/2009_10_01_archive.html
View my complete profile. Saturday, October 10, 2009. Red became a theme for me in later years as a performance artist, and even now, when I make something with red string I remember the tactile experience of following that string, as the point between attached and detached made it's way around the room.

Omniglot Studio: Mermaid Roe
http://omniglotstudio.blogspot.com/2013/04/mermaid-roe.html
View my complete profile. Tuesday, April 23, 2013. Vintage Mother of Pearl Graduated Cluster with Copper on Blue Leather (sold 12/09). I spent a good two hours picking these beads out of a button tray beside the register of a local antique /boutique shop. And that wasn't even half of them. The owner of the shop was so nice, she found the rest for me, and who knows how long it took her. She had just purchased the shop, and the beads were left by the previous owner. This is not as heavy as it looks.
