Eco-Inspiration Ave Challenge

The wonderful group I belong to Inspiration Ave has a weekly challenge, based on a word or theme from one of our creative members. Each week has been something fun and challenging. I've been slacking (head hangs in shame). I really wasn't sure what the rules were, and this is what I've looked like lately. A chicken running around without it's head!
Anyway this week I decided to man-up or woman-up as the case may be and try to get it together! So the word for this week is Eco from our lovely Luthien.

When I think of the word eco I think of reuse or recycle. Since with my steampunk jewelry I always try to recyle or reuse things I thought my artwork fits right in :o) Here's a new witch that I'm listing on ebay tonight. She has both recyled vintage and new parts.

Take the time to take a peek at what all the other artists think the word eco means to them. The challenge is open to all artists with a blog, you do not have to belong to our group to join in the fun! The deadline is Sunday at 5 pm Est. Here is the link again to our blog Inspiration Avenue. xo Michele

Missouri Botanical Garden & More Halloween!

Hope everyone here in the States had a wonderful Holiday weekend :o) Summer has officially come to an end to me when it becomes Labor Day weekend. Sigh. Most of the weekend we spent being lazy which is what you should do on Labor Day weekend right?? LOL. But yesterday we did go down to the Missouri Botanical Garden (those of you that plan to come through for the wineries make sure you go to the botanical garden!). I won't bore you with all the history but the Garden started as the country estate of Henry Shaw who then donated it after his death. This weekend there was a Japanese Festival going on, which I didn't know till we got there! I wish we had went earlier. There were all kinds of vendors there. I bought a beautiful purse that is made from modern kimono fabric. There were so many it took me forever to choose! There were tee shirts, Japanese candy, soda pop, Anime, bonsai trees, pottery, food...you name it and it was probably there! There were shows, like Japanese puppertry (Bunraku), Summer Festival Dancing (Bon Odori), Kimono Fachion Show, Martial arts, Sumo...the list just goes on and on. You could have spent the whole weekend! I didn't take that many pictures of the Japanese festival part, mainly just of the gardens. I didn't forget the camera this time!! Okay so hubby reminded me lol!Here's just a few of the pics:
A tiny part of one of the gardens that is close to Mr. Shaw's country estate home.
I loved the texture on these leaves. I think Mother Nature does such a great job of texture, & color! The leaves look like they are rusting to me.
This is part of the Japanese garden that is there. Gorgeous. I so wish this was my back yard!!


These are really cool glass sculptures that are floating in a lily pond. The Gardens are filled with artwork, both contempory and antique. There is an angel that I thought I took a picture of (can't find it yet) from the Worlds Fair here in St. Louis.

and then here's me an hubby squinting into the sun and taking a pic of ourselves LOL! The perfect end to a perfect weekend.

I didn't list anything on ebay yesterday, really I forgot it was even Monday LOL which is a nice change of pace for me! But I do have a new piece that will be listed tonight on ebay. More Halloween :O))

More Halloween coming soon!!!!! Muuuuaaaahhhh!

My First Witch of The Season!!

Okay those that know me, know that I just can't WAIT for Halloween!!! I keep looking at the calender..is it time yet? how about now? You think it's too early yet?? LOL! I should just do Halloween all year it would make me a very happy camper!! So without any further yapping, here is my first witch of the season, complete with jet black swarovski crystal elements for hair!

Oh and check out the "moon" she's flying in front of..the vintage enameled watch face is by a watch company named New England!! How perfect is that????!!! She goes on ebay tomorrow night (thurs) for 7 days.
The other pendant that is going up tonight is another one of my all time favorites! It doesn't get much more frenchy paris looking than her!

Her skirt is filled with pearls, rhinestones, and enameled flowers. Only 5 days to bid on her! She goes on ebay tonight at 8 pm central time along with the angel from last nights post (I'm actually ahead of myself for once LOL. I'm not even sure how that feels!). There's lots more pics on ebay of both also :o) Have a great night everyone! xo

Meeting Friends!

Today was one of the coolest days ever! Ginny Baker who is a wonderful clay artist and I have been online friends for at least 12 years maybe more like 14, anyway we had NEVER met and today we DID!! It was so much fun!! And it was so wild because it wasn't weird to me or anything...you know like we had never met in person...it didn't feel that way at all. It felt like I was with my friend Ginny who I have talked with everyday for years and years! Anyway, just wanted to share with everyone what a wonderful time we had having lunch together! The only bummer thing about the day was I forgot my camera!! Can you believe that??? Sheesh! Her blog is on this page but she just moved so she doesn't have any of her beautiful clay pins or figurines on ebay right now.

Here are the two new pendants I have for ebay tonight! The dragonfly one I got really carried away with the jewels...can a girl or er dragonfly have to many jewels?? I don't think so! LOL! The other is a little black cat witch and she comes with a chain ;o)


Have a great night everyone!! xo Michele

Gypsy & Witch

Well I couldn't be patient with Etsy LOL...I had listed the 7 things in the etsy store the other day and I finally thought..why not put them in my ebay store? LOL. So I did. Sorry I'm not sure if I'm patient enough for etsy! I have that following on ebay and I like my little babies to go to new homes where they are loved! Hopefully I'll build up the following on etsy, but in the meantime they are in both places ;o) I'm listing a fused glass witch and a altered art witch on ebay tonight! I may sneak in another angel but as I write this I haven't taken her picture yet ;o) so we'll see. Here's a sneak peek at the pendants that are already scheduled!

Hope everyone has a safe and fabulous Memorial Day Weekend! Here in Missouri it's a big boating weekend at the lake. Whatever you do, have fun! xo Michele

Angel, Witch & Goth Girl, Oh My!

3 more fused glass pendants!! See I kept good on that promise to list more!! There's a spring time witch, an angel, and a goth girl so something for everyone! All will be on ebay tonight at 8 pm central time :o) For those of you that don't know, I cut and fuse several layers of glass together in my kiln, then after they cool down, I draw the design and hand paint them with glass paint. They then have to cure for 24 hours before being low fired again. The glass paints once fired are scratch resistant :o) Hope everyone is having a good week! I am past one birthday :o) Have had tons of fun! Now just have Easter and one more birthday to go! xo Michele

Alice In Wonderland

Hope everyone had a great holiday weekend! I ate and shopped until I dropped ;o) I think I'm finally done with all the Christmas shopping! I've been very much in the Alice mood lately! I have two new Alice In Wonderland glass pendants listed on ebay! http://stores.ebay.com/Michele-Lynch-Art also a Christmas witch and gypsy, and a geisha! More steampunk divas have also been added. I've had some requests lately for some more street type scenes and some more domino pendants. Also someone suggested that I paint with my toes...hmmm...now that would be an interesting video right? lol! Enjoy the peek at Alice! There's more pics of them on ebay! xo Michele
