This is my Etsy store. Check here for bug jewelry as well as non-bug items. I update the inventory here regularly.
Scrounging for materials and tools is a central part of my studio practice, and there are great bargains to be found!

This blog will also promote recycling and reusing by encouraging artists to donate or sell excess tools or materials to others who need it.
