Time to Celebrate!

We will begin celebrating March with wine toppers - sounds like Top of the Morn'g to Ya!
This gold leashed wine topper is make of cork and polymer with decoration of metal confetti.  Each metal confetti  of copper or brass was hand placed. The entire topper is then sealed for durability. It was a great hit at November's Art show!

Keep Wrapping!!


Continuing with the wrap rings... I like the stacking of multiple rings. Again a message of trusting in God!
This ring is a good wear for someone with nice long fingers... unlike my little hands!  Enjoy!!

SURPRISE!!!!

                                                Three different elements - all in one beautiful pin.
The drawing is an original inspired by gifts given to me from my pen pal in England when we visited last year. The metal is embossed copper with key images - keys to our hearts from over the pond! We have been corresponding for a very long time! And the back is a polymer to set the pin w a signiture to denote the drawing is an Laura Langlois original and AG stamp to brand it is an Ag design.
This piece was given as a gift to a friend who just found out she has cancer... letting her know angels are watching over her (and yes she is at CTCA!). There are other pieces in this format at the show this year...
Enjoy!!

In the Buff - ing stage

Now that the sides are filed and buffed. (Trust me after sanding the sides your hands are fairly roughed up) Now you sand and buff the surfaces of the medallions to make them extremely smoothly and shiny on raised texture. Sanding and buffing take a bit of time, but well worth the outcome. Enjoy! www.AgapeGifts.org

Tedious work begins....

Every square's side that was cut now needs to be hand sanded. This is a bit time consuming BUT it gives it a professional finished look. That is the goal right? Enjoy!! WWW.AgapeGifts.org
