Chained Circles now in the shop.

Chained Circles 1, originally uploaded by freeforged.

Check it out, just posted a new pair of earrings in my etsy shop. You may have seen these floating around my flickr page for a while now, but they've finally been posted. You can check out a couple more pictures on flickr, or see a few other pair of earrings that are similar.
Enjoy.

Mounted

Maybe it's just the fact that I just moved into a new apartment, but for some reason I really want one of these:

It's a Unicorn. Mounted. Trophy Style. And it makes me laugh every time I look at it.

Perhaps it's the sullen gaze that just seems to radiate the thought 'I hate you...'
Perhaps it's the foot long horn.
I don't know, but with a whole new apartment to decorate, I feel a strong urge that says 'I need this...'

Thank you PaperStampede, for giving me one more thing to add to my favorites list.


Aside from oogling various things on etsy, I've also been busy selling off all the stuff that's been in the back of my closet for the past 2 years. Consider it a destash in progress.

General Update...

It's been a week since the Instructables Laser Cutter Contest deadline passed, and already I'm anxious to know if I've placed at all, but I suspect we won't know until at least another week.

Aside from that, I've been terribly busy with the big move - my boyfriend and I have moved out of the apartment we were sharing with my brother, and into a 2-bedroom that will actually have some studio space for me now!
I'm rushing to unpack everything so that I can start ordering my equipment - a full size torch for example, and possibly a kiln if I can find a good deal on a used one.
I did get a good camera for Christmas, which takes that concern off of my list, so soon I'll be updating my flickr account to pro so that I can have my pictures better organized.
