Here you'll find updates on everything regarding My Favorite Pastimes - Designs by Patricia Swistak. I will regularly be adding pictures so that you can browse my newest creations. This site will feature my most recent jewelry designs and projects as well as more classic pieces that I have continued to make, as they have proven to be favorites over the years.
Lately, I have been intrigued by the idea of using recycled goods in my artwork. For instance, please browse through the "SmittenS" collection - environmentally friendly mittens handmade from recycled wool sweaters that have been washed and felted. Lined with polar fleece, they are sure to keep your hands toasty and dry in the upcoming cooler months. The incorporation of antique glass and metals is illustrated by the various examples of one-of-a-kind yard and garden sculptures.
Please take a look around the site! I welcome special orders and love to work with clients to custom design pieces that fit particular needs. Recent orders have included jewelry for bridal parties and SmittenS in team colors for colleges and school athletic booster clubs.
Please email me at anytime with questions or requests - pswistak@aol.com or feel free to purchase items online at my etsy site, www.etsy.com/shop/pswistak.
Thank you for visiting the website.
