Kat's Musings: Tuesdays Talent: In The Raw

I love everything in the raw. From raw stones, raw art, and raw foods. It all seems to capture the simple beauty that nature intended. Those little flaws like moles (can you say Cindy Crawford?), stretch marks, chips or inclusions in stones all add an extra flair that drive me wild. Let's hope your as wild about these raw creations as I am.

$20.00
Each fused glass pendant is hand cut from compatible glass, fused in my kiln multiple times, and properly annealed for strength and durability.

This artsy, cool pendant was created using a base of lime green opaque art glass. I then shaped and hammered two silver swirled posies out of fine silver wire. When fired in my kiln, the silver sunk in lightly to the softened glass. A very cool effect to combine metal and glass. This rectangular pendant measures 1 1/2 inches tall by 1 inch wide, not including the bail. I've firmly attached a large silver plated bail which hangs nicely from any chain. This listing is for the pendant only. I do have silver chains available as well, please view my other listings. Always FREE shipping on my chains.

All my pendants are shipped in a gift box ready to be adored.

Thank you for your interest in Art Salad Studio!

$8.00
Beautiful paper mache box hand painted and glittered. I then embellished it with a mixture of vintage and new flowers and even some cute bugs. Narrow white rick rack borders the edges of the two halves. Inside is filled with paper shreds and a pair of egg shaped lamp work glass earrings. The earrings are on french wires.
The box can be reused for years to come as a decoration.

This item is not intended for children under 12 and is not a toy. It does contain small parts.

$38.00
This one of a kind pendant features a pretty green dichroic fused glass cabochon. The cabochon has been grooved to hold the wire snug and secure. I hand wrapped and sculpted this pendant using 14kt gold filled wire that I twisted to add a special touch. Due to the nature of the wire and the glass, no two pendants will be exactly alike. It has a large 1/4" bail and measures approximately 3/4" x 1 1/2" long including the bail. A chain is not included.

$20.00
I drew this for the nursery of my brand new baby twin friends. Did you know that the spirits of twins are sent into their mothers' wombs by monkeys? Well, in Yoruba mythology they do, anyway.

This is a print of an image entirely created in Photoshop. It is printed on 8x10 Rives BFK paper (130lbs, acid-free, 100% cotton rag, mould made) printed with Epson archival pigment inks. The actual printed image is 6.5x6.5 (the 2nd image shows the proportions). It would look great in an 8x10 frame. I initial each print on the front, and title, date, and sign it on the back.

The print will be protected in a cello sleeve and shipped to you in a rigid mailer.

Please note that colours differ drastically from monitor to monitor. I'm very colour-conscious, and like to use mellow, unsaturated, modern pastels. If you have any questions about the colours you see, feel free to inquire!

Thanks for looking!

$30.00
I love green and I love designing and sewing green! This folkloric looking elastic waist pull on skirt will suit a wide variety of people sizes! It was made using a recycled brown cotton jersey knit as the base with vintage and recycled/salvaged mixed up and coordinating fabric strips and trims in all shades of green and black. There is a very cool green leafy floral print, a classic green tartan, green stripe ruffly grosgrain ribbon, black rick-rack, and a darling little print I found on a vintage blouse. I love the way it all came together and yes it is green in more ways than one!

This particular skirt is a 14" length and the waist relaxed 20" and 30" extended. All the seams are beautifully clean finished inside.

Machine wash cold, tumble dry gentle cycle or dry flat, no bleach, warmish iron as needed.

Smoke free home and all vintage and otherwise fabrics have been carefully laundered by me.

I ship to ANYWHERE, but if you live outside the 48 US states or any other country or territory, please send me a note to ask about your shipping costs and if you want insurance

$7.50
This little guy is hoping for spring by dreaming about flowers and bright skies. I like the color combo in this image - I added a hint of pink in the sky and the blue flowers look great against the green background.

This pendant measures about 1 1/4" X 1" and is finished with several coats of clear acrylic gloss for both shine and protection.

A sturdy 7mm jump ring is added to each pendant prior to shipping so you can add it to your own chain. Or, you may choose to select something from the UPGRADES section in my shop. Click this link to be taken to this section:

$20.00
I just love this breed. They are so adorable.

A french bulldog face decorates this dichroic glass pendant. This necklace features a kiln formed pendant made of a green colored dichroic glass. The design is one of my own designs and after multiple kiln firings, it is a permanent part of the glass. When viewed from the side the green colored dichroic glass appears to change to a turquiose blue color.

This pendant measures approximately a 1 1/8 inches wide by 1 1/8 inches high. A silver toned jumpring forms the bail and it hangs a 18 inch 2mm black leather cord necklace. (Ask about the availability of custom necklace lengths and faux suede cord for those who do not wear leather.)

I prefer to ship by USPS first class mail. I will consider international shipping, but wish potential buyers to discuss the higher cost of shipping prior to bidding. I want everyone to be happy with items I have hand made, so I would be happy to return your payment, EXCLUDING the shipping costs.

My jewelry is presented on a display card.

$65.00
These gorgeous glass beads were made by Melissa Rediger and they are SO pretty in person. The sun was casting lots of shadows this morning so I had to lighten them up in Photoshop to reveal their true colors. I have accented these beads with beautiful Swarovski rings in Copper and Green and added hand wrapped Swarovski Crystal charms in Topaz, Smoked Topaz, and Olivine. It is finished with an heirloom toggle clasp. The bracelet measures 7 1/2" in length but can be resized if needed.

Should you have any questions, please feel free to ask!
Thanks for looking!
