found*ling




Betsy Carr studied art at the University of North Carolina at Wilmington and graduated in 2004.  She developed a love for silversmithing at Arrowmont School of Crafts in Gatlinburg, TN in 2007.  Combining silversmithing and collage, her company, found*ling, was born. 



Betsy is inspired by objects handed down through generations-things like haphazard fabric combinations in old quilts, spidery handwriting, faded paper, and quirky old folk sayings. She keeps her eyes and ears wide open for such treasures from her studio at 15B Domino Lane.
