I Heart Collaging!

Happy hot Wednesday! The high today is 99... oi. Hopefully this heat will help my resin dry faster. I'm working on a new batch of brooches and earrings, and they're coming out SO good! I've been doing more collage work lately and it's really therapeutic. I used to cut pictures out of magazines (and textbooks...) and reassemble them into collages all the time when I was little. They make for quirky, unique art pieces. 


Here's my first sellable brooch, which is already in my Etsy shop, http://www.etsy.com/shop/DeweyChristina

The layered paper gives it an interesting texture underneath the resin.

Brooches are definitely making a comeback, and it's a good thing too - you can pin that shit on anything. It's an easy way to perk up an outfit and it won't get in your way. I should have more collage pieces in my shop by this coming weekend, so make sure to check back there in a few days!

Enjoy your first day of September!
