The building itself is entirely built from cinder blocks, and has that elementary school feel about it. There is so much that needs to be done in order to make this space feel more like an intelligent and creative environment for teens. Brett and I couldn't help but be charmed by some of the old fixtures in this space. Ideally, we're hoping to preserve the parts we love, and balance them with newness.SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-5174533336076392852012-03-16T15:00:00.001-07:002012-03-16T15:25:18.002-07:00clayzy about clays<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/6988306781/" title="claybeads by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm8.staticflickr.com/7043/6988306781_e58b973001_b.jpg" alt="claybeads" height="752" width="500" /></a><br />This winter was spent with my hands submersed in clays of all sorts.

We are attempting to buy a house, settle down, open up a grand sisbro studio, and really dedicate ourselves and our extra time to cranking out the goods. So so close to close, then someone stole all the copper pipes in the basement! <br /><br />We'll keep posting though! <br /><br />I made a silicone mold of those knuckles and put my wax injector to use, SO EASY! Next, I mounted all those knuckles onto a wax tree. Last night, I was finally able to caste them into metal!

I carefully carved out each finger into a little knuckle gem, and hollowed each one out using a heated wire, and some wax carving tools. I want as little wax as possible in these shapes so when I cast them, I will not need as much metal, and they won't be so heavy.SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-5265748990932116312011-01-02T09:35:00.000-08:002011-01-02T09:51:19.528-08:00chucklesAs an adolescent youth, creative freedom of the self conscious reigns. I chose the unsuspecting knuckles to be the recipient of my embarrassment. I always thought I had the wrinkliest knuckles. I would go to measures such as always keeping my fingers slightly bent, in order to stretch all those wrinkly little joints out. Being older, and a little more secure with these hands, I wanted to create my next piece of jewelry from this part of my body which gave me such horror. This past week, with so much Christmas and New Years vacation, I cast my knuckles in wax! I am thrilled with all those creases and crevices! <br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/5316735580/" title="knuckles by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5161/5316735580_d88a65f2a5.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="knuckles" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/5316734928/" title="DSCN0172 by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm6.static.flickr.com/5123/5316734928_3255a57a9d.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="DSCN0172" /></a>SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-21184248524914062052010-11-22T12:17:00.000-08:002010-11-22T12:39:44.646-08:00This one's dedicated..To the one, the only, Brett Smith.

Erin Flavin and James Leonardo are joining forces through matrimony in the coming month. <br /><br />Flavinardo have asked me to make a couple of wedding bands,an honor that has left me honored.<br /><br />I've been given two maternal rings. Not to get too poetic, but I plan to melt these two metals together to form the new bands. The diamond setting on Erin's mothers' ring has already been sawn out and preserved, leaving a trace of the old ring on the new..

We have 15 boards hand stained and poly'd, ten more to go! Since we are waiting on our routering robot friend, it may be about time to get to work on some re-upholstering.

We met last night despite the glowing yellow/orange-tornado-watch sky to stain these massive pieces of plywood. <br />Our first run on the c&c router came out, we are pretty excited about the results.. 1 down, 5 stained, and about 20 to go before we can start installing them!SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-88162874006981153152010-06-09T10:06:00.000-07:002010-06-09T10:22:15.203-07:00cheap ideas<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/4685806688/" title="boutiques 002 by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4033/4685806688_16b4b94bdd_b.jpg" width="500" height="667" alt="boutiques 002" /></a><br /><br />Flooring.. Flooring can cause multiple headaches, in a sister and a brother, not only from caustic varnishes, but from cost. In an attempt to save money, and we're talking cheaper than IKEA, we've decided to lay down plywood in the space for our refinished floors. But that is not enough for us, NO WAY! We're currently testing out techniques to add a little somethin' somethin' of our own onto the plywood, including, but not limited to, stain and routering. So far, we're super happy with the results, and can't wait to see the entire space transformed! <br /><br />Don't worry, the above photo includes routering without a jig, the final won't be as jiggly.SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-22550758627895820122010-05-24T20:43:00.000-07:002010-05-24T21:12:23.670-07:00peakaboo<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/4638013674/" title="all front by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4001/4638013674_ee47358bd8.jpg" width="500" height="230" alt="all front" /></a><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/4638013778/" title="IMAG0041 by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4020/4638013778_9a10e62edb.jpg" width="500" height="333" alt="IMAG0041" /></a><br /><br />Summer is definitely here, and I know, I know, we've been terrible (worse than terrible) at blogging, but we have been working nonstop.. It was almost a seamless transition from NLMH to this new project. Speaking of...<br /><br /><br />So, remember that really super top secret project that was mentioned earlier? We're going to let you take a glimpse of it. I'm not going to say much, but we will update as progress is being made! <br /><br />Look at the beautiful canvas we've been given to work with!<br /><br />Blech.. Yeah, ok, it's actually a hideous canvas right now. Maybe as we work, you can guess what we are making ;D<br /><br />Last weekend, we made the super craigslist score! We nabbed all these old science cabinets from a school remodel for cheapcheap! Brett and I were SO excited both at the aesthetics of them, and the amount. We plan to use these cabinets and drawers meshed with our own designs, both to save on money (we've got a tight budget on this one) and to be able to bring in the warmth of older wood into the space. I can't wait to start building in warm weather!SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-79131831788663162612010-04-10T19:17:00.000-07:002010-04-10T19:46:38.393-07:00look at DEM KITES!<span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-family: 'Lucida Grande'; font-size: 11px; white-space: pre-wrap; "><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/4509687766/" title="DSCN0044 by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4062/4509687766_1221602389_b.jpg" width="500" height="667" alt="DSCN0044" /></a></span><br />Today was such an amazingly pollinated perfect spring day. What better way to spend it than to load up the car with a bunch of tetrahedrons, and head to the como zoo!? I was able to kidnap the <a href="http://www.queenquills.com/iWeb/Queen%20Quills/Home.html">QUEEN OF QUILLS</a> herself, emily snyder, to help me photograph the remainder of the NLMH landscape. There were a lot of eyes on us and our crazy "kites". Pretty great, hearing someone else's vision.. Not a bad idea, really. This is one of my favorite shots from today. Many thanks to emily's long long arm!<br /><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/4509612652/" title=":) by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm5.static.flickr.com/4063/4509612652_01d102f38c_b.jpg" width="500" height="667" alt=":)" /></a>SISBRO DESIGNhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13385769449887513055noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2941834787110797069.post-1538209907292552932010-04-02T08:26:00.000-07:002010-04-10T19:44:28.148-07:00<a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/misserinsmith/4509116503/" title="NLMH bazaar_flier_bw by misserinsmith, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2406/4509116503_056b8937b2_o.jpg" width="500" height="626" alt="NLMH bazaar_flier_bw" /></a><br /><br />As the days grow longer and warmer, time is becoming scarce.
