The city of Franklin issued the following news release:Last night, just before 6:30, Franklin Police were summoned to the Kohl's located at 300 Spring Creek Drive, where store security was discount tiffany bracelets Nayade Carrasco for shoplifting. Carrasco, 46, of Spring Hill, concealed 26 necklaces, four bracelets, two pairs of earrings, and four shirts in her purse before leaving the store and being stopped by security. The total value of the merchandise, $928, makes Carrasco's crime a felony.Specially trained loss prevention specialists, sometimes referred to as store detectives, combined with high-tech video monitoring and recording capabilities, make shoplifting a precarious crime for thieves. Their chances of being caught and arrested are increased greatly by today's corporate emphasis on shrinkage control. It is not uncommon for shoplifters arrested in Williamson County to be sentenced to time in jail.Old wives' tales warn about keeping a broken mirror or glass in the house. They say it is sure to bring in bad luck. So to do away with it head straight to glass artist Anjali Venkat with the broken shards of glasses and mirrors.Venkat's interest in art started young: "I was one of those children who would always be found in the art room at school." Her passion and her sense of aesthetics have combined to create what she calls 'functional' art that recycles the broken pieces. She can easily transform a broken mirror into a glass lamp with a wooden base, or say, a tray with a magazine collage and discount tiffany earrings handles or even delicate earrings.Initially, her work was met with scepticism. But she never gave up. With an encouraging family, the artist continued to study glass cutting, soldering and fusing across continents. Venkat's work is unique for it is not art merely for art's sake. The objects d'art that she creates must be "artistic, functional and useful too."Venkat recalls how she has met many who perceive recycled goods as 'tacky'. She has tried to dispel this myth with her vision for 'upcycling'- process of converting waste materials into new products of better quality or a higher environmental value. Upcoming work from Venkat includes a collaborative exhibition called 'Wood Paper Glass' where she and friend, Shetal Parrek, are exhibiting work in mixed media. She also conducts classes on glass cutting and soldering. But her favourite is to create her own quirky jewellery.The exhibition is on from October 2-4, 2010 at H-18/4, Arundale Beach Road, Kalakshetra Colony, Besant Nagar. Call 45511170 for details.
