New Work

Things that have been keeping my mind busy, thank goodness, off of other things!

New Items In The Shop

Hello all!! New items were listed in the shop yesterday, these are just a few examples!! These pendants are similar to the one that Kitty used in her Bead Soup Blog Party piece! Have a great Sunday! Enjoy!

New Work

And Again......

New Work......Baaaadd Pictures! (Again)

My Assistant.......isn't she a pretty one?

She has her bowl of beads and wire too.....she's no slacker!

Trying my Hand.....

...at making a copper pipe bezel. As much as I enjoy designing and stringing jewelry....I have this little internal secret. I would love to be able to make some kind of art bead or jewelry component that OTHER designers would like to use in their own creations. I can dream can't I?

I am waiting on some better tools so I can try my hand at other bezels. Cutting copper pipe is NOT as easy as talking, thinking and writing about it.....I have two blistered fingers to prove it, and like I said....I wore work gloves too! I am wimpy!

Above is my first and only attempt at the moment. 3/4" copper pipe, hand cut, drilled, oxidized, brushed with steel wool, antique brass wire wrapped loop, filled with tiny cultured pearls and covered with resin......oh and one small sneaky little bubble...dang him!

Would YOU use it as a charm, in earrings, in a design??? ANYTHING? Feedback MORE than welcome! I had fun making it anyway......enjoy!

New Work Monday

Hello all! New Work Monday! Yay! Here are a couple of new bracelets I made for my new $20 Bracelet Collection. I am trying to slowly build up my stash of designs for a big November art and craft show! They are all made with sterling silver toggles, sterling silver findings and spacers. They all have a dangle at the clasp too! Enjoy and thanks for stopping in!

New Work

These are just some pictures of a necklace I call 'stress reliever' because there was no other reason for making it but boredom and stress relief!

This is a custom piece that is going to Australia and will be a gift for some lucky person!
