Sentry Air Fume Extractor in my studio

Over a year ago I was reading a post by jewelry artist Deryn Mentock on her blog Something Sublime about a fume extractor that she was using. After many years of grinding glass and now soldering I was very interested in my lung health. I referred back to her post and called Sentry Air Systems about a fume extractor for my studio. The people were so very kind and helped me in making an informed desicion about which model to choose.

I recently received it and I love my new fume extractor. It makes a huge difference!! It also eliminates having to instal hoods and cutting holes in your roof and it’s completely portable for those on the move.

I was later contacted by a lovely lady named Joy from Sentry Air about doing a blog post about me for Jewel day 2015. Click this link to read the post JEWEL DAY.

This past week I’ve been playing around with new sterling forms. Kind of organic looking pieces. This one is called *three peas in a pod.*….lol.

Nevada Blue turquoise necklace

I took a beautiful Nevada Blue turquoise and paired it with one of my organic pieces. It’s one of my favorite necklaces right now. I absolutely love how it sits.

Oh …how I love thee Nevada Boulder turquoise. This little pretty sold the day I finished her to my dear friend. It was purposely not my size…..grrrrr. I named this ring *a river runs through it*….I better stick to making these pieces and not naming them!!

It’s been a great week!! I have really awesome upcoming news!! Stay tuned!!

My name is Manon. (pronounced Man + O) Yes….my mom cursed me with my name. In her defense I guess she never though I’d leave Quebec. I’m a jewelry artist and painter. I’ve been creative as long as I can remember and things haven’t changed. I now live in Scottsdale, AZ. I spend most days in my studio making pieces that speak to my heart. Thanks for stopping by!!
