The rush is over and now...

the creativity begins again...all of my Valentine's Day orders are complete, packaged and en route to their lucky recipients. I now have a little more time to focus on creating pieces inspired by my trip to Argentina. These will require me to brush up on my piercing (handsawing) and drawing skills (help!! I've never been any good at drawing anything more than stick figures!!).

A constant challenge I seem to be running into recently is the 'naming' of the categories and pieces. I want the names to reflect something about the piece, have some underlying meaning or just sound plain cool. Usually I can come up with something that just seems to fit, but I often wonder if the names distract from the pieces, especially if they are a bit out of the ordinary. I'd love to hear thoughts on this. Would you like to see explanations in the descriptions for the meaning behind the names? Let me know.

Something I've been toying around with as well is having a 'launch' party to promote my work. I'd love to hear thoughts on this as well!

Launch party sounds good, and I like that you name the pieces :-)
