Looking in my stash for some inspiration for this blog, I came across some seriously beautiful discs from the magnificent Claire Lockwood of Something to do with your hands. As always, with Claire's work -the colours and glazes on these ceramics are stunning. I worked on these gorgeous deep purple discs first.
I thought Jana Bliznakova's wonderfully tribal stoneware beads added a nice contrast to the glossy purple of Claire's little concave discs. I added some pretty czech glass teardrops, brass chain and some purple glass spacers.
For this next pair, Claire's ceramic discs were the starting point again. A gorgeous blue-green glaze on these.
A dash of czech glass again (this time a little green flower in the centre of the discs) with more chain and a wrapped green czech glass teardrop. I went with some rustic, chunky African recycled glass beads this time.
They will be in my etsy shop. Hope you like them. See you in December :-)
