"Give me your tired, your poor,  Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free,  The wretched refuse of your teeming shore.  Send these, the homeless, tempest-tossed, to me:  I lift my lamp beside the golden door." #🇺🇲 This patriotic color scheme has me humming Sousa marches while I sew like a B(etsy R)oss. What I love about up cycling is that you can combine little scraps to make something better and stronger than the individual pieces could be on their own. They're all different, but they're united together into one cool thing. This dress (and everything else I've made) will be for sale at the Alameda Mini Maker Faire on Sunday July 8th. All of my proceeds will be donated to a local domestic violence shelter. Because people escaping violence deserve help and compassion. Get a free ticket before they're gone and come see my crafty wares.

'The People are Getting Restless' The Lily Holds Firm: #Assemblage for The Mystic Wheat, 2018 . We decided not to use any figures in the compositions for the project because it would cause referential issues (amongst other concerns); this meant that there ended up being some rather surreal objects used instead of figures. . #thelilyholdsfirm #dollhand #hand #fork #antiquefork #collage #craftobject #politicalart #politicalcraft #anastasiayoungjewellery #artjewellery #fineartjewellery #contemporaryjewellery #foundobjects #objettrouve #surrealism #emblemata
