This relish bowl is a great parlour trick: ultraviolet light shining on Depression glass reveals the green uranium color.
Just one of the many treasures I’m discovering in Mom’s home after her passing. In the span of a few months, life shifted abruptly—from my role as a gilder to hospice caregiver to estate preparer.
Thanks to my family and friends, things are moving along. It’s all about re-emerging.

After a deep winter haitus to care for my mom, it was rewarding to see this project come to fruition. Thanks to and her lovely client for their patience. Love the copper reflecting in the metallic plaster walls!

Happy New Years!
I was given Daruma doll assembly kit from my friend Catherine Lignier after she went to Japan. Painting a Daruma doll’s eyes is a Japanese New Year tradition symbolizing perseverance and goal-setting. I’m going to paint the left eye and set a New Year’s resolution. The other will be painted when my goal is achieved, signifying completion and gratitude. In Japan, I’ve read that they keep them visible as reminders and are traditionally burned at temples after a year, regardless of success, to make way for new goals. (Phew!)
They represent the spirit of never giving up- which is a perfect theme - especially for this New Year.

With my sister in International Falls, MN. She has is a lovely piece of our great grandma Rhoda’s “Georgia” flow blue china plate made by Johnson Brothers, a British manufacturer in the 1800s. Naturally, I was enviously taken with the hand-painted gold accents that framed the piece, yet, proud of our ancestral collections.
Coincidentally, we have an article by in the current Gilders Tip on how to do ceramic gilding with contemporary techniques. The love of gold continues!
