Old + New = Tillegirlstudio
Where do I start? I work in the Information Technology field for 30+ years. If I were to describe myself, I am a logical person, closure seeker, planner, controller. My family calls me, "The General" due to my above listed attributes. But, wait, that is only one part of me. I love, love, love to throw logic in the wind and let loose on my creative designs. My inspiratio
ns are derived from Old and New pieces. I am a collector of old components, the older the better. You will find in some of my pieces silver plate components originating from vintage silver platters which I have cut, hammered, patina'd in order to give my pieces a one of a kind look. Also, I like to work with copper, which you will see if some of my original designs. It all comes together in my basement bead room, which has become my creative haven. My designing path is a long one, with no end in sight. Thank you so much for spending time on my page. BTW, my FB page and Etsy shop is named after my dear golden retriever who was with us for a long time to the age of 15.5 years. Her name was Tillie and we always called her Tillie Girl. She crossed the bridge a few years back, but remains in our family's hearts.
