Last week I created this bird-in-house.
The inspiration for this piece began with a special request from a friend who asked me to create a necklace that would include a bird, a house and a dash of glitter. I love playing around with these ingredients and coming up with new recipes. Whenever I make something either in the art studio or kitchen, I always begin the process by gathering my main ingredients. And then I add a dash of this and a dash of that depending on what mood I’m in. Choosing and implementing all the little details make the entire experience fun and interesting…variety is the spice of life right?

I am BEYOND thrilled with this necklace. It captures every single thing that I asked of Becky. I wanted it to be a piece about a soul house — protect your soul house, keep calm. I think this peace definitely does that. I love this girl!

Becky, this is another beautiful necklace. I can’t wait to get the one “Ocean Mist” I ordered from your shop. I love the birds, and anything to do with the ocean/water always speaks to me as well.

I saw your bird projects in the new issue of Somerset Studios. This piece and the ones in the magazines are adorable!

This piece turned out lovely. I think I’ve seen it, was your request from a Brave Girl?? It is beautiful. My question is where did you find your beautiful bird?
Thank you for sharing.

Hi Dawn, Yes, the request was from Ann Marie…a Brave Girl with an enthusiastic heart. The bird I used is from a personal photograph, and I’d be happy to email you a photo file.

Hi Becky, I just found your blog through the Brave Girls e-mail. I am so amazed with your talent. Your uplifting posts really speak to me knowing that your life has finally taken a beautiful direction, far from its origin. Art is healing to me in this way as well. I viewed your blog to the beginning with my coffee this morning and am completely inspired. Thank you for being the spark that you are. xx,
