It’s February and I’ve been busily preparing for the festival season. We just got in a shipment of enameled copper rings for Harriet’s chainmaille that she will be combining with silver to make some fancy new Byzantine bracelets with a two tone look. I’ve applied for vending at Spoutwood farm’s May day faerie festival the first weekend of May www.fairiefestival.net in Glen Rock, PA. and the Maryland Faerie Festival in June www.marylandfaeriefestival.orgI’ve vended at spoutwood two years ago and it’s a great festival. Maryland will be new for us but we hear from others that it is great as well. I hope to have good news soon on those! We will also be returning to the World of Faeries festival at Vasa park in South Elgin, Illinois www.theworldoffaeries.com in August. I’m starting to work on new stock for this year and hope to be doing some silver-work soon as I’ve started working with PMC, precious metal clay, which I just love. It is fine silver in a organic binder that can be molded or sculpted into almost anything and when fired it becomes solid silver. I’ll also be posting more of our work in the next week or so so come back often and see what’s new. That’s about it for now, Ceir
