The newest range that I've created in my 'Memories' work are a reflection of the set up I have at the markets. Usually, in order to display my jewellery to the greatest effect I use a large single frame with the majority of smaller and most complicated pieces together. Set up around these are four or five black picture frames that have some featured pieces framed within them. This set up echoes some of my inspirations, such as silhouette portraits, like these:
While at Gorman House the organiser Kathy Lippmeier suggested I sell some of the pieces framed permanently, and not just displayed in frames. Thinking about it (and seeing the more delicate pieces that will break after two or three wears, like ants and beetles, that I had just about written off) I took the advice on board and started framing some pieces in mini versions of the glossy black picture frames.
And so, the MiniArt range was born! My favourite is the red flamingo, but all the pieces look rather beautiful in the frames. These will appear at the next market I attend- which, hopefully, will be Gorman House this Saturday, but may not be until into the New Year.
In the mean time I can always be contacted by Facebook (Danielle Kathleen) and Email (danielle.kathleen@live.com) or via my Etsy store.
Happy Christmas,
Danielle Kathleen
