What a night

I get a message that one of the ladies in one of my circles on Etsy would like to purchase 2 of my pumkin pandora style beads. Okay, no problem. When I get home, I can find them.....So what else can I do but make another batch. So here I sit waiting for the darn things to cure in the oven so then I can put them in the tumbler to sand the ruff edges off.

Not too bad are they.

The other day a gal from my office came to me and showed me a necklace that she wanted clip earrings for. You know the type of earring that you get if you don't have a hole in your ears. She asked me to make them. So here is a picture of the earrings I made for her.

Earrings



I made the earrings out of red jade stones, swarovski crystals, quartz beads and some cool findings.


I make beads out of dried flower petals and another lady from work heard about it and brought in the flowers she caught at a friends wedding. She wanted me to make a bracelete so that she could give to her friend. So I did and here it is.

The light was a bit bright but I guess the picture shows the flower colors well enough. There were dark burgandy roses, red carnations, purple orchids, and these puffy yellow balls on a stick thingys.




This is a necklace I made while I was trying my hand a sculpting. I took a wonderful class on line and while I think I did an okay job it let me figure out that sculpting just isn't for me....yet.

(is that even how you spell sculpting?)

This is a multicolored necklace with copper wings. I thought of how it would feel to be able to really fly and to be able to weave in and out of a rainbow. Now these colors are my attempt of making rainbow colored beads that complement each other. What turned out was sort of a soft hued color blend of beads 



This of course is a closer look at the wings and beads.

I was inspired to make these earrings while on vacation in Hawaii this past spring. All the leaves and flowers that surrounded us. It was magical so I made these so I could have a tiny piece of that wonderful time with me.

As you can tell I like to make jewerly. Some for myself, some for my friends. I also knit and spin fiber to make yarn. I like to keep myself busy. I am doing this blog to share some of my work with others. So anyone who is reading these blogs, please leave a comment on what you think of my work.

Thanks
