Introducing Lz Rocks! Today's CityCraft Handmade Holiday Happy Hour Market Featured Artist.

I'm pleased to introduce you to today's featured CityCraft artist - Lz Rocks!

Leslie Beard, of Lz Rocks!, says she “makes handmade stuff that rocks.“ She features a wide variety of jewelry and accessories such as wire-wrapped pendants, epoxy resin mold pendants, fused glass pendants and rings, as well as hand knit scarves.

From her Etsy profile, " I am 27 and self-medicate with craft. I love living in Pittsburgh with my EJ (who sometimes helps out with listing and shipping) and 2 kittens, where I own a curious beast of a retail establishment called Your Mom's. I dig the wire wrap, resin casting, felting and spinning, glass fusing and flameworking, and various eco-crafts - check out http://craftingagreenworld.com/ "

She is the founder of the Etsy Pittsburgh Team and will be participating in Pittsburgh’s annual Light Up Night this Friday, November 21st.
