Trappings Photography Series:
My series is about the various things that trap people in society and the perceptions of ourselves and other people. I will post a selection of the most popular pieces of the series. These was designed as a part of a 12 part series following the stereotypes that trap us.

Each print is 8x10 high quality photograph and is $19.93
Mangled Faith:
This is one of the most popular pieces from the series. It's about the trappings of religion.  A statement on people's reaction to other faiths, it's perfect for an office or church to inspire common sense and a sense of cooperation and coexistence.
Book Wormy:
One of my favorites of the series. This one is about how other people's categories and stereo-types can trap us. This one is perfect for book-worms with more under the surface. This would be wonderful in a home office or reading room to set the mood just right


Poison Perception:

This is, by far, the most popular piece of them all. This is about dealing with other people's perceptions of oneself and the trapping nature of other people's opinions. This would make a powerful statement in any home or office setting serving to remind people that the only limits are those we put on ourselves

Which Print?


There will be more to follow!

This Week's Workings and Pricing

I've been working on Christmas stuff this week for the most part.

I finished up my first flat Kumihimo weave. It ended up a bit shorter than it was supposed to be. >.< It ended up being about 4 feet long instead of the 6 feet I wanted. I did discover that the finished product is about 2/3 the size of the original string being used :D

Now I know!

This is the finished spool of ~4 feet.

I used black, white and blue.
 This was supposed to be part of some trim that was to go to a friend of mine (yes Jess that means you >.<) but as it's not long enough this will be going elsewhere.

Pricing on trim (flat weave made with string) is $18.54 a yard. Keep in mind these are each hand made and unique creations. These can be weaved with anywhere from 1 to 5 different colors.


I'm working on some other Kumihimo for Christmas too.
I am doing an eight part metal round weave out of wire. It's looking really great and I'm gonna be making some jewelry out of it as well as a Christmas present for someone. Can't say what or who just yet!

What the weave looks like when the wires are woven together

Still on the wheel, not finished just yet >.<

Close up of it.
Earrings out of this are going to be about $15 a pair. I will be making some in the next few days. I'll post pictures of them as soon as they're done. ^^
A choker necklace out of the metal, about 14-15 inches long, would cost about $20.
The round metal weave can be made out of anywhere from 1 to 8 different colors.

The finished necklace that I posted earlier, the one with star chain-mail on it, I realized that I hadn't posted a price so...

Pictures to remind everyone ^^

The full necklace with it's toggle closure
A necklace like this one would cost about $15
I would also be able to do a stylized earring version to match and those would go for about $13.50 a pair.

All the Chain-mail will be from our partners over at Majestic Maile! Each of the earrings and necklaces of this type will have a custom made Celtic star on it ^^ I will have results posted as soon as possible from the example ones I will be doing soon ^^

Hope everyone likes it! ^^

Snoodiness and Maille!

Today I finished up my first example of a snood. It's a bit inelegant, but for a first attempt it's pretty darn good. I suppose there's a learning curve to any new skill but this particular one was frustrating me and my perfectionist nature >-< The second one I did was much better.

The loops on it are a bit big, but I've got that figured out now. I used a 5 petal start on it and branched out.


Prices for a snood will be about $15 per. They are available in any range of colors and I can even do combinations of colors.


I am beginning some more lamp-work today and tomorrow morning in preparation for some Society for Creative Anachronism events I'm headed to in the next 2 months.  I have a project for the An Tir princesses in the works that will be worked on soon as well.

In other news, we here at Fire Inspired have teamed up with another artisty person. Scott over at Majestic Maille has begun talks about commissioning Lamp-work for some of his chain mail pieces. If you have a special bead request to be worked into the chain mail that can be arranged as well. ^^
