    I there…I would love to be a part of the Crafty Bastard’s show program in 2009. I make jewelry using recycled plastic disks that are handcut from detergent and shampoo bottles. the disks are threaded onto wire and connected with jumprings and findings. The work is playful and unique, but tasteful enough to work with a business suit. I also make some very wild earrings. I tried to join the Crafty Bastard’s group, but I’m not sure I have anything that got posted correctly. My work is reasonably priced, one of a kind, and very cool. Happy to send photos for the jury.
