BK Skillshare!
Yesterday I got the chance to check out the Brooklyn Skillshare. It was great! I got there in time to take the Fiber Arts Workshop and Natural Jewelry Casting Workshop, both very inspiring! They'll be holding more Skillshare events soon. :)
Jacqueline Schmidt of Screech Owl Designs taught the Fiber Arts workshop. It was a great introduction to knitting and she also showed examples of other techniques such as wet and dry felting, weaving ect. She makes a wide range of beautiful objects, knits, notecards just to name a few, check her out: www.screechowldesign.com
Timothy Gasbarro taught the Natural Jewelry Casting Workshop. This was a cool unusual technique, he pours natural objects such as beans, sand ect. into a can and casts the space around the objects. There's a lot more involved but thats the basic idea. The results are these beautiful abstract shapes. Check out the images on his website to see what I mean, especially images #18-21:

Saturday Inspirations- NY Gift Fair
So now that I've had a chance to sift through the huge pile of business cards ect. that I acquired at the gift fair last Mon...
here's my favs!
Resource Revival! They make tons of cool stuff for your house: picture frames, storage and my favorite- the clocks! And you can send them your old bike parts for reuse: https://www.resourcerevival.com/about/recycling
Abteil
Check out their website: http://www.abteil-shop.de/ Really great bags all made from repurposed materials. There's the Soccer Ball Bag (which is literally a soccer ball turned inside out!), the Hot Water Bottle Bag, and tons more. Very creative reuses! The Lederhosen bags are adorable.
(wired)
Jewelry made from parts from electronics, diodes, resisters ect. by Melissa Kolbusz. It might be my computer being slow but I can't seem to get to their webpage: www.wiredresistance.com. But when I googled wired + Melissa Kolbusz a few other sites popped up with pics so check em out! She does a great job making electronics look gorgeous.
Beth Mueller
I love Beth Mueller's simple ceramics with their cute illustrations. My friend Tiffany got to talk with her once and she said when she's making her illustrations she' all about doing just enough but not too much. Simplicity!
DB Clay
DB Clay's wallets are good lookin' and eco friendly! They've developed a material called "Tope" that has a similar texture to vinyl canvas but contains no PVC and decomposes when buried. They print artwork and photographs on their wallets using environmentally friendly inks. www.dbclay.com
Tair Mercier
I love love these prints by Tair Mercier. They're printed on polypropylene and they're just really fun to layerover each other, you can't go wrong because they're all so pretty! I just checked out his website, www.tair-mercier.typepad.com, and I also happened to notice he put a pic up of his 2CV, and I'm not a car person I'm more of biking/public trans kinda girl, HOWEVER, that car is gorgeous so check it out.
Melissa Borrell Design
She had these really awesome plastic "pop-out" earrings and pendants at the show. They come in fun packaging, a plastic sheet that you pop 'em out of to wear. There's a much bigger variety of beautiful jewelry on her site: www.melissaborrell.com.
Parametre
These screens/partions are pretty cool. They're a "3d textile" made from polyester. The shapes are really cool and the hardware to put them up is nice and simple.
Yomo
If you're a textile design junkie like me you're gonna like this one: www.yomony.com They've developed a process called "kemuri" in which their textiles are hand pressed in order to make them super light but still extremely strong.

garbage of eden design at AuH2o!! : )
Totally psyched to have some of my jewelry items on sale at AuH2o in the East Village : D
This shop is so cute, it's run by Kate Goldwater (the name of the shop is her last name as it would be abbreviated in elements from the periodic table, Gold = Au, H2o = water)
Kate makes a lot of the clothes right there in the shop. All of the clothes are reconstructed from old clothes for a new funkier life. There's also some great vintage jewelry. Everything's priced very reasonably. Check it out! www.auh2odesigns.com
Also, new Garbage of Eden Design pendant necklaces and rings are on sale!
