My name is Melanie Brauner. I'm a hand papermaker, metalsmith, artist, fiddler, and pianist. I live in a 1920s cottage in the beautiful Pacific Northwest. My jewelry line, Verso, is made from my own handmade paper, metal, dyes, and resin. I collect inspiration from nature to make my art and jewelry, I play traditional music, I collect antiques & vintage clothes, and I grow vegetables & flowers in my garden. Welcome to my little world!
@kathrine266 it's origins are in Norway, yes! But it made its way to Denmark and Sweden as far back as the 1700s! And there are folk musicians playing it in those countries today. 😊
@@versostudiomelanie i live in norway, family in denmark and sweden. It is very much a Norwegian instrument. the folk music in Norway is very popular and big. people playing this in Denmark , sweden is not enough to say it is Scandinavian.
@versostudiomelanie yes. I watched. My friend used gold wire-as opposed to your usage- and enamel. Producing quite similar shapes and usage. Sorry if I was not clear. Nice work
I'm always blown away by artists.. y'all can just take random stuff and turn it into beautiful items.. wish I had just a speck of artistic ability.. ❤️❤️
You can't just say they make a rustling sound when worn and then NOT show us!! Please like hang them on or near a mic and shake it or something, I need to know!!
