My cousin Tammy is a fantastic artist. I'm so in awe of her talent - me, who can't draw a stick person that looks like anything more than a ton of scribble-scrabble.
Recently she decided to delve into a new form of art - jewelry. Always looking for the next painting or photo opportunity, she recently stumbled upon another creative venue for her work. She has begun to create glass tile pendants from photos of her paintings and from her photography, graphic designs and clip art. She's opened an etsy shop for her work.
One of Tammy's first customers recently had this to say of her art: "God gave you a precious gift that you share with us."
Tammy loves making jewelry from vintage personal photos. I, uh, won't be showing you what she's created for me, since it's a gift for someone that I know. *hint., hint*
Here are just a few samples of the many endless possible pendants she can create. Brand new to her designs are pendants of popular animal prints and favorite Bible verses as well! With spring wildflowers just starting to bloom you can bet we'll be seeing her photos of those turned into pendants as well!
These pendants make fantastic gifts and hello - Easter and Mother's Day are fast approaching! Tell her I sent you.
Beautiful!
