Though I focus most of my creative work on making beautiful glass for customers to display proudly in their homes and on their person, I also like to have some fun making more light-hearted pieces as well.

My main pieces o’ whimsy are these sweet animal brooches. I started with the dogs back in 2004 and then realized I couldn’t leave the cat lovers out of the Haminal loop, and then I learned to knit, so had to make sheep…and finally I began keeping chickens so had to have some plucky clucks as well.

My hubby named them…see we are HAMS and they’re animals, so they’re HAManimals or HAMinals.

You can see the pieces I’ve got available at the moment, listed in my Etsy store:
