Website!!!

I finally finished my website.  You can check it out here: http://www.nacreousalchemy.com/  I've tried to gather all pertinent information about my shop and my work there.  If there is something you would like to see let me know. :)

And just so this isn't a picture free post here is my most recent listing.

New Year New Resolutions!

I have been awful about ignoring this poor blog but one of my resolutions for the new year is to be more active here.  So I thought I better get a post in before January is over!  I've been working on a new website for Nacreous Alchemy which will be unveiled shortly.  I am trying to have a place online that gathers together all aspects of Nacreous Alchemy in one place with links to everything.

My most recent shadow box features a private opium den in the 1920s.  That is one of my favorite eras for so many things, decor, art, fashion and literature.  I found some interesting sites and pictures while I was doing research.  This site was a great source: Opium Museum They have so many amazing pictures and info to check out.  Here are a few different photos I found while doing research.  The first one was the most inspirational as far as the mood and decor of my shadow box goes.



 And here is a photo of the completed project.
