Customizing
I make unique jewelry (I hope) but sometimes customers want to change stuff a little. And I love doing it for them.
This pair of earrings are long but not quite long enough for the gal purchasing them, so I added a little over a half inch in length witb an additional bead.
I loved them before but they are just as cute now!
Just had to share... and this is my first time blogging from my phone so hopefully it turns out ok!
Happy Monday,
XOXO

Soooo Shiny....
I have a new fetish love for seed beads. Shiny little black, crystal clear, gold and silver ones to be exact. I've had several pieces made but (since the late Spring hit us) the garden HAD to go in later than planned. It's all in, flowers and veggies, which is great, but, again, I'm behind on showing off the pretties.
Here's the garden... We had to rip up all the sod underneath where the mulch was and then add black fabric and two scoops of mulch. I did most of it myself... and I really need to do more squats evidently because my body hurt mucho badly after. :) I don't have a good photo of the back veggie garden, but it got the same treatment but is 15 x 60 feet or so. Needless to say, we've been busy.

Here are a few of my favorite new pieces.... The earrings came to me one night as I was working and I could barely contain myself. I just HAD to create them and they turned out perfect. The necklace is a little less dramatic than the leaf ones I've created but the pendant is my favorite.
I really love wire-wrapping and the versatility it gives me in the design. I hope you enjoy.
A day late, but Happy Fourth of July!

New Design - Three Strand Wire-Wrapped Beaded Bracelets
I love wire wrapping... My hands don't after a while, but it's worth it when the designs turn out so pretty, like these bracelets.
They are made of antique brass and Czech glass. They close with a toggle clasp which make them easy to take off and put on.
They are each $25 and available on my Etsy site, along with quite a few new pieces. :)
Back to work I go!

Suspended
Everything has been put on hold recently... and I can't say I like it. BUT I can't help being sick unless I, you know, avoid the world. :)
So, nothing has been created except one washcloth. And I did get some gardening done, but not enough to make much of a difference. I'll post a pic of my efforts as soon as it's all done!
These bracelets are named Suspended because I was thinking of the beaded strands being like the suspension bridge cables, but the word fits my situation this week.
I have a craft show this Saturday, so shop now or forever miss out on some pieces.
Back to normal life I go...
xoxo
