Last August, a couple who started as clients and soon became very close friends, flew my husband Matt and I to their home in Delaware on their private Navajo plane. Outside the window I could see the clear, gorgeous sky and beautiful clouds. I took some pictures (see left for a sample) of the clouds from the plane’s window, because I was immediately inspired to use the cloud texture as an etched surface design for silver vessels.
The first two pieces in my new Learning to Fly series are two vases. Each vase has a hand drawn cloud design that was etched into the surface with nitric acid to create the cloud like texture. To view, look under my website Portfolio in the Vase category.

Some ideas for Groomsmen include custom cufflinks with the design based on their initials (see Q Cufflink picture above), cufflinks that relate to the wedding theme or style, tie pin or clip, silver money clip, a silver and wood wine coaster, and a silver beer stein or beaker.
