Wooden it be nice


My sister is getting married this spring and her wedding is going to have a natural, rustic style to it.  I have this  great woodgrain stamp that I used on a piece of copper, so that when it was etched, it had the look of a tree.  
I thought initials carved in a heart would make a cute gift for a bride to be.  I added the tag with her wedding date to give it another special touch.

I liked it so much, I made one for my daughter's WONDERFUL kindergarten teacher who is also getting married this year.

Olive you


Vintage style initials

I made these simple little initial necklaces for my girls' teachers this Christmas.  I love the simple vintage look of the hammered edges and the hint of color the bead brings.
