Agnes Welcomes You...

Be what you would seem to be -- or, if you'd like it put more simply -- Never imagine yourself not to be otherwise than what it might appear to others that what you were or might have been was not otherwise than what you had been would have appeared to them to be otherwise.~The Duchess

A Moment Of Silence Please...

So when I first started making baubles my mom told me it was a terrible idea to name each one like a pet because "it's like naming a chicken you know you're going to kill and eat later".  Now...while I'm sure that none you Agnes customers are consuming your baubles (dude, go to a doctor like now) it still makes me pout a little when one of my favorites sells.  So now, without further adieu...I give you...my recent favorites that just went to good homes:

The Fox & The Horn

Hippocampus

Stag
Don't miss out on your favorite!!

Fall & Winter Agnes Love

We had an unusually warm Fall here in ole' Portland (make even one Portlandia joke and I will gladly fantasize about poking you in the eyeball).  We had a glorious September and even October so I took advantage of it with a fun little sunset photoshoot.  Once again, my little daughter Emily proved to be the best model ever.  Enjoy!

Bullet Jewelry...Be Gone...Off With You

Those of you that know me know that I am awesome. But also that I have terrible ADD, dislike most people, and have zero patience for doing something over & over again.  How to I maintain relationships, you ask?  Well...I don't really.  That's why I have a cat.  
ANYWAY...
In the crafting world, my hatred for repetition is both inspiring but also a pain in the ass.  Mostly because once something I make becomes popular and people want to buy it is exactly when I get sick of  making it.  Which is why I'll probably never be like SUPER famous.  Which is ok 'cause people freak me out.  
CASE IN POINT: BULLET JEWELRY.
I did it for a while...liked it...then lots of people liked it so I stopped making it because I am my own worst enemy.  BUT I made these instead.  Which I LURV.




These will be featured in the coming holiday season!!  Come & get em'.

Agnes @ Renegade LA!

Hey!  Looky!  Looky!  I was a big kid & went to LA to sell at the incomparable Renegade Craft Fair.  It was awesome.  In addition to feeling like a grown up I also learned some things:

1. I like driving...Alex does not
2. I do not like walking through Skid Row in ballerina flats...or at all really
3. They sell little baby turtles at convenience stores in Chinatown.

And this stuff happened too....
Not letting me drive...

Lotta Hardware, Very Little Hippo


Did this little shoot several months back. I like it. We went to the famous Hippo Hardware & of course it was awesome. There's brass & dust & lights & junk so I felt right at home.

It's Official...I am a terrible blogger

Can you even call yourself a blogger if you haven't done it for a year?  No?  Yeah, I figured. WELL I'M SORRY OK. I had....stuff...happen...or whatever.  Soooo now I'm gonna play catch up and post a bunch of stuff that already happened so I feel better about myself.  It's all about internal lies, really.  I'm ok with it.

To make this less lame, I promise to add something new for every old thing I post.  So there's that.

This is new:
