Alloy Theory at Crafty Balboa Holiday tomorrow!

Alloy Theory is a collaboration between two friends, Jenni Tunbridge and Stephanie Spiller. The two found they share a passion for fabric and sewing. Based on the concept of upcycling, they love taking something someone would otherwise toss out after a few wears and turn it into a coin purse or make up bag. Denim is the base material for the line, providing a durable structure from which the two embellish each bag, making them one of a kind.


Alloy Theory will be at Crafty Balboa Holiday Saturday, December 8th from 11am to 6pm!

Stevie Lynn at Crafty Balboa Holiday tomorrow!

I am a fun loving jeweler who likes to experiment with all types of materials. All my designs are original and come from my imagination. Each piece is cut, filed, and assembled by hand.



Stevie Lynn Jewelry will be at Crafty Balboa Holiday tomorrow, December 8th from 11am to 6pm!

Tomorrow at Crafty Balboa Holiday, Zucchini and Co!

Art is a process; it is by following a set of steps that I can turn off the inner monologue and let a thought speak. The steps vary, but are almost always related to color, words, layering, and textures.
I work with acrylic paint, carved linoleum blocks, and colored pencils. I love the touch of papers--thick cotton rag--and often the paper's surface is just as important as what is put on that surface. I create patterns in squares and circles, in colors that tend to be feminine, and rely on traditional craft, such as hand-sewing a print to a painting.
Currently, I am working on a smaller scale with quieter colors, perhaps reflecting something of who I am outside of the classroom. Current events, my students, and my dreams are often my subjects.





Zucchini and Co. will be at Crafty Balboa Holiday tomorrow from 11am to 6pm!
