Newsletter: More than the sum of their parts

Filed under Newsletters, Sale, Valentine's Day

Note: most of the links on this post no longer work, as we moved to a new Web site in 2018. But you can try searching on the same names (as links below) on the new site.

Before I tell you about the beautiful pendants by Wendy Anderson don’t forget to stroll down the length of this newsy newsletter to see more new art samples (from Design Team Member Shannon Sawyer), back in stock items, and a recap of Thursday’s Circus Tin Shrine Tutorial.

Just look at these wonderful pendants that Miss Wendy has made! And with such simple ingredients: a glass tile, a tiny bit of collage sheet paper, and of course, her imagination!

The “Paris Showgirl” necklace at right uses one of the new Rectangle Glass Tiles. And both of the pendants shown use the versatile new Antique Silver Ornate Square Filigree.

The “Queen of Burgundy” necklace at left uses one of the smaller (also new) Square Glass Tiles, with an image from the Brass Pendant Kit Collage Sheet, and an artfully distressed and patinaed Large Brass Crown.

And I forgot to say: all these parts I’ve been mentioning (and those highlighted below) are on sale!
