change to blog url

I finally had the courage to change the url for my blog. I have been in the process of organising my branding and social media links and this was the last frontier.

If you were  follower of studiok24.blogspot.ca then you will have noticed that the link is gone and you get a note that the blog has been removed.

 all the old content still exists here on this new site.

If you stumbled upon this blog then Welcome.

 I hope to update this blog more frequently now that my website is up and running and my logo is designed and my business cards have arrived and my labels are made. I didnt realise how much piddly work was involved in branding one's product line. Whew!

If you want to see photos of my work or discover where you can see them in person or to shop online  please visit my website @    www.mhotistudio.ca

Thanks for stopping by, and please do come again

Bead Soup Blog Party REVEAL DAY

Image
It's here;  it's  BEAD SOUP showtime. This is going to be one GIGANTIC PARTY  Thanks for stopping by to see what I've been up to lately.  Lori Anderson , our fearless leader (there are over 500 of us) assigned us partners in March; we then sent our bead soup mixes to each other and once received, we then spent the interim weeks planning, designing, creating and assembling.  The requirement was to use the focal bead, the clasp , and as many beads as we desired; adding if necessary supplies and beads from our stash (and we all have one), to create a piece of jewellery or art or whatever took our fancy.  (or wherever our muse led us). If this is your first time to my blog , WELCOME!   To save you from having to search through past posts here is a photo of what my partner   Heather d'Entremont sent me and then  photos of the finished piece.  Lots of polymer clay goodies; lava rock beads in three sizes; some crystals; two clasps; one large focal polyme

"We interrupt our challenge schedule to try something new for the month of August....a headpin challenge. But not just any kind of run of the mill headpin.  We're talking fancy schmancy art headpins. What is an art headpin?  Well...it's a headpin that is handcrafted by an artisan, has been manipulated in a manner that is more than just a ball end, and has the potential to be the centerpiece of a creation rather than just playing a supporting roll."   (the above statements are courtesy of    Art Jewelry Elements blog ) Well I checked my stash and rats, I don't own any art headpins.  How did that happen? I love art headpins.  So I'll just have to make my own.  Take some wire -20 gauge; cut two pieces 6 inches long Now I could just make swirly coiled headpins but that's so meh.  Lets try  soldering. So I make some bends on one end of each wire to create triangles.  Make a  bend in the middle of one side to make the long pin par
