Photos from my gallery opening!

As some of you know, I had a gallery opening on Friday night. Before taking my stuff to the gallery, I worried about how to display it as this particular gallery space didn't have secure cases and the like. I came up with the idea of mounting the jewelry on canvases so they could be hung and I can't tell you how well it looked!! I was so pleased with how all of my work looked in the space. It garnered lots of admirers and I met some very nice people at the opening reception.

Dan & I met our parents at a brew pub for dinner before heading over to the show. Here are some shots from the night:
