Here is what ABS editor, Erin Prais-Hintz had to say about this design;
"With my own recent experiments in etching, I was delighted to see someone else working on perfecting that technique. I know how hit or miss that process can be, so I really appreciate that StaciLouise chose to etch her own original design as the artwork. I love the stitching on the fabric and leather, the brass tube rivets that add a little contrast, the handmade swirl clasp out of wire and the little pearl that dangles in the back. A very simple, yet intriguing design."

Truly unique and interesting. Bravo StaciLouise.
Thanks so much guys! I am honored to be chosen!
As for the etching....I have only ever done electro-etching. I try to keep my studio as green as possible, especially with little ones running around, so no harmful chemicals for me. Here is a great tutorial on it!

Once you get your set up together, its very easy, and fast. Its a great way to be able to bring your originals drawings to life in jewelry!
Thanks again!
