Cabinet of Curiosities: a splendid time.
Thank you, Barbara Bridges. Gathering a group of creative women and letting them loose in two rooms full of pieces of dreams and the tools to make them come true could have had but one outcome: “success!”
Defining “success!” opens a wide door because each piece is unique and meaningful to its creator. I, for one, got to add to my Glue Experience, and used 2-part epoxy for the first time to repair a tiny wooden gecko that had defied wood glue for a decade. I also got to play with black silicone, and used it for part of my piece. It should surprise no one that I am now the proud owner of my very own 2-part epoxy and black silicone. Plans are afoot for using them both.
I was inspired by Barbara for opening the door to a new physical and mental creative space, the camaraderie of creative women making art on hyperspeed, and the setting which is as close to an elf’s workshop as I’ve ever been in. I would go back in a minute.
