Well, it's been a busy busy month since we last spoke, I have been busy making plans my new beginners ring making course, developing a new website for Gallery 2wo and evolving ideas for my new jewellery range to be launched soon, ooOOooo!! Plus lots of other exciting things on the horizon for Gallery2wo... indeed. Over the weekend.... Yesterday I held the pilot beginners ring making class. What a FAB day, a few people were poorly and were a no show but that didn't stop our fun.... Yes I even let boys play too!!  Kyla working on her  ring.. Courageous indeed, Rahhhh!  One Courageous happy lady. If you would like to get involved with some bashing of the pretty metals, details of the courses available at Gallery 2wo will soon be at www.gallery2wo.co.uk ....Keep ya posted.

Gilding Glamour!!

Well, I thought I should share with you all some of the excitement of gilding and what I get up to during the days when I'm not making things with resin and silver!! Well largely at the moment I have been doing a lot of glass decoration aka Vere eglomise! Which basically means gilding onto the glass then drawing a design into the leaf. Hard to explain, hard to do and even harder to photograph!!! here it is... Me in gilding action (not exactly a high speed game!!) These are some tiny lozenges smaller than a leaf, so pretty simple to lay... although we will be doing 140 if the samples are liked by the client !! And the following are some finished eglomise sample pieces... mostly architectural Greek designs... Please excuse my hand in the reflections...! 'The leisure ladies' ... I shall be uploading more images soon
