Here's the DISH: Some new items waiting to be listed on etsy. I have started a facebook page featuring what I list on etsy and what projects and events I will be doing. Like jenny elkins studio when you get the chance on FACEBOOK. I will be listing as much as I can each day check out my etsy shop.

You know the saying that goes something like "don't judge a man until you have walked a mile in his shoes" . That is how I am feeling of late. So many things going on here in my house. The husband is struggling with his health in turn he is struggling with things at work. We are looking for a big change in our lifestyle this year. I have a great amount of faith that everything will work out, it usually does.

SO I will end with sometimes it feels like I am juggling cats. Something I have heard. Until next time!

Pictures from A Fair in September

latest artwork donation

This is a new piece that I made for the VSA Indiana silent auction. I hope someone will want to take it home with them. VSA is an art organization that gives people with physical and mental disabilites an opportunity to make art. The event is Sept. 23rd. Judy O'Bannon will be the honorary chair.

Coming Up!!!!!

So excited about this upcoming show. I have been busy making jewelry, sewing market bags, mosaic(ing) frames, collecting wonderful little vintage finds and more. It is all happening at my home in Irvington. If you want more info please comment or email me. jenny

There's more than Corn in Indiana

Thought this was FUNNY. A couple of months ago a friend of mine closed their antique booth and was selling a bunch of things. So, I go to her garage and I carefully go through everything to find the right stuff. I bring it all home and little by little I have listed it on etsy or it has made it's way to booth in Edinburgh. So tonight I say GO LIST STUFF!!!! (worked all day, dog tired) so I thought I will list that corn....hmmmm.....(I live in Indiana where large amounts of corn are grown) I think to myself what exactly is this....I can't pull it apart, is it some sort of odd early plastic advertising something.....so I get out my magnifying glass and read NYLABONE.

Mystery Solved.

What's OLD is NEW again

I have been BUSY making things out of items I already have. I am trying to think of more utilitarian uses for things instead of 2-d art. These are my latest creations. Button Pendants. The retail for $38- with the silver toned choker necklace. If you are interested please let me know and I reserve one for you.
