Art With a Hammer

Lori Anderson from the Pretty Things blog is having a giveaway for this fantastic set of metal letter stamps.

If you haven't given metal stamping a try, this is a great opportunity to get some of the tools to give it a go. Otherwise, sign up for the Knits & Pearls newsletter so you get the February/March class schedule coming up. I'm planning to teach a metal stamping class in March to help you get a start thinking about great Mother's Day gifts.

A stamped pendant I made for my aunt with my cousin's name and birthdate.

Autoch ... what?

I do sometimes get the question: why would you choose a business name that most people can't pronounce. It's because I don't think anything else could express why I do what I do.

Autochthonous Evolved is my philosophy of beauty. Everything and everyone is beautiful the way we are naturally.

We and the jewelry we use to adapt our natural beauty undergo the same transformation: taken from nature and worked into something new. So, the jewelry we select and the components and techniques we use to make it form a strong statement about the way we want the world to understand us, not just the way we want the world to see us.
