A Handmade Wedding

Working on a long piece about handmade for weddings - inspired by my friend Sarah's lovely, elegant wedding events. All made with love. The gorgeous brunch table as laid by the Fairy Godmother Brigade.

Buyers Market of American Craft - Booth #422 Moda di Magno

I am seven days away from the Buyers Market of American Craft in Philadelphia. New gems made, currently being photographed by the amazing (and patient and awesomely awesome) Thomas Magno. Show furniture ready, line list nearly there, comfy shoes at the ready. Freaking out? Yup, a little. But I'm really looking forward to sharing the new stuff before I go. Now off to sleep (before 2am!)  In other news - the new website launched - take a peek at www.LoriMagno.com

Ringing In

Ringing in the new year with new rings! Every ring is created by recycling my 'mistakes' - pieces that for one reason or another were not up to snuff. Snips and bits of metal clay, sterling silver and occasionally highlighted by other goodies in the studio. Take a look, let me know what you think!
