From The Bradenton Herald:
It started with dominoes
, the backs of which are bare. Schewe comes from an artsy family of fierce domino players, and during one game Schewe's sister looked at the domino backs facing her and said, "They're boring. They need advertising or something."Nothing would've come of her comment, but she went on about the naked dominoes for 45 minutes, helped by the fact that she - and all of the domino players - had drunk a few margaritas.
Schewe was thinking about that day as she cleaned up after her kids a few months later. She came across some dominoes, drew on the back of one and sent it to her sister, who drew on another domino and sent that one to Schewe.
That went on for a while, and Schewe eventually made a necklace out of one of her sister's creations. She then started making domino bracelets and selling them off her wrist in the grocery store (shoppers would ask her how they could get one), and after much pushing and prodding from her family, Schewe entered her first art show.
Of course, as a craft-o-holic myself, I love the artsy crafty jewelry slash mixed media look. Here is some of their work, but they have lot more on The 3-Sisters web site:
