In The Night Kitchen
We're thrilled to have
been featured on In The Night Kitchen - "Fly me to the moon -
I love how much atmosphere she adds to the
piece, with the dragonfly and sexy brass chain (have I mentioned that brass
jewelry looks awesome?). I really flattered that Sharon would lend her
amazing design talent to my piece, and I’m stoked that it’s currently for sale
in her shop. I’m honestly tempted to buy it back again! And did I mention
there are matching earrings!!??"

In
the Night Kitchen
"Chill
Out - Mmmm…anybody
else thinking pina coladas and moon-lit nights?
Sharon, of
Mana Moon Studios,
takes wire wrapping to a new level with her
bracelets. You know how some jewelry you look at and
you know exactly how it was made? I honestly don’t
know where Sharon even begins with her pieces. And
they’re so chock-full of extra little details and
frills…perfect for the kind of person who loves to
play with her jewelry all night long!"

Vintaj
Designer of the Month
“I
just incorporated Vintaj Natural Brass findings in two of my bracelets for the
first time and love how the findings created an antique look to the bracelets.
From the Vintaj line I used various bead caps, beads, “believe” charms,
headpins, jump rings and the wire offered on your website in 20 & 24 gage. I
create wire wrapped beaded bracelets using a variety of beads, wires &
embellishments."

Chateau
Bizarre
Site
of the Day - "Jewelry
twisted out of fiber, vintage finds, and woven wire,
all made one-of-a-kind: glass beads layered over
chunky gemstones, asymmetrical effects in the
necklaces, and a mad energy racing through the
wrapped pieces. They also bring their collaging
effects into woven scarves."
