The wind and rain might not slow me down much but the huge Australian spiders you have to contend with probably would if one of them decided to pay a visit to my studio.

Totally refreshes them, adds a rustic, artsy touch to something that we've all seen before, as awesome as stampings are.

All your soldered earring components rock, why don't I do that? Also the black and cream color combo was dramatic but not as painfully contrasting as black and white. So much cool stuff as always.
