I wasn’t waiting for the treasury on Etsy to open up or anything, but earlier today, someone posted an announcement on Twitter that it was opening up soon.   I decided to try and snag one, but I apparently missed it by [...]

Click HERE to see it in Treasury West!
I made a treasury this afternoon shortly after the server malfunctioned and a bunch of them disappeared. The ones that were made after that (like this one) either disappeared or got switched to another curator’s page. So I just did [...]

Hey, Copper!

Hey, Copper!, originally uploaded by antigenre.
I’m playing around with some new techniques and ideas and seeing what will come of them. I want to add more rings and bracelets to my store (getting a bit earring-heavy, ya know?), so I’m seeing what I can do with copper discs and silver grains. Something like this work-in-progress will [...]

My Treasury!

My Treasury!, originally uploaded by antigenre.
I’ve had Buck Cherry’s Crazy Bitch going through my head all morning, so when the treasury looked like it was going to open up, I decided to exorcise it from my brain with all these cool ‘buck’ and ‘cherry’ items! The song’s still there, but at least I’m at home [...]

Treasury, originally uploaded by antigenre.
Another beautiful treasury from Uncorked! This one is copper-themed, and the combination of the pieces featured – including my Cupertino Ring – give it a warm, summery feel.
Check out a couple of my favorites, including Morphologie’s mixed-media brooch called Evolution 2 and Fotofiction’s Red Fireplace, an eerily sunny photograph of a [...]

Details, Details…

Details, Details…, originally uploaded by antigenre.
I just happened upon a treasury on Etsy the other day. I wasn’t expecting it at all, but the little box at the bottom of the page suddenly opened up and said “Create a tresury!” OK, fine, I will, if you insist. So I named the treasury “Ok, Fine…” in [...]
