Sitting in my family room last night, watching So You Think You Can Dance (don’t you just love Cat Deeley?), I literally gasped out loud when I saw this ring from bstudio.
The artist is Brenda Kee, and her shop is filled with beautiful pieces, all featuring silk ribbon. The ring above has been made by gathering hand-dyed silk ribbon onto an adjustable ring, and also comes in a gorgeous red.
Brenda’s shop is full of a beautiful variety of products – from hand embroidered cards to pillow covers, framed artwork pieces and more lovely jewellery.
The flowers on her pillows are multi-layered, with silk embroidered centers, and the designs on her cards are stitched on silk dupioni fabric with great attention to detail. I just love the ladybug!
Brenda also shares her talent, and has a book available on Chapters.ca (and on that other big American online bookstore but we’re supporting Canada here, right?!) Her Ribbon Art Book & Kit includes instructions for 10 projects, and even supplies to complete one of them. I love it when artists aren’t afraid to let others in on their secrets!
Just one last thing – it was pretty cool and gloomy yesterday in Alberta, but these daffodils would brighten any wall.
You can find Brenda online on her Etsy shop, Facebook, Flickr and on her blog.
Enjoy!
