Leo Sewell: Junk Sculptor Part 2

from one Rhonda Ryan. Hurray. Nice way to start the day. Or so we

thought.



Checking with Paypal revealed no payment, but this could mean all kinds

Las Vegas Jewelry Week 2010

Rolling down the Las Vegas strip at 10pm on a Friday night and it’s a solid 98° outside. We’ve been here before. Its going to be jewelry/hell week in Vegas. Saturday does not disappoint as the temperature rockets to 110° by mid-morning.

"Why don't you make nice jewelry that normal people can wear?" My mother-in-law is generally a sweet person, but our jewelry seriously disrupts the balance of her universe. We don't have the heart to let her
