Old World Style!

 One of my favourite things to work with is Verdigris pieces. I love the old world charm that it brings to any piece. One of my favourite things to mix it with however is red and Black Brass! So rich and romantic!

These are the two pairs available in my Etsy Shop right now. I will be adding more this week. So much to do and so little time! I am looking to some of my Pinterest Boards for inspiration on designing more of these in unique combinations!

Have fun shopping and wear Earrings Everyday!!

Cocoons

In case you all didn't know it yet, I've been playing with Polymer Clay recently.
These Cocoons are one of the first things I made and I think they turned out really cool!!

I paired them up with Glass Discs from Outwest, absolutely perfect color match!!

These are nice and long with lots of wonderful movement but light as a feather!

So unusual and that splash of Turquoise blue with the neutrals just sets off.

And those Outwest Discs...Perfection!!

I am bordering on obsessing about Cocoons now,

 in my search I have found so many amazing Cocoons that I had to start a Cacoon board on Pinterest

 I can hardly wait to try to duplicate.

These Earrings are available HERE in my Esty shop.

Dots and Flowers

Wow, Easter is just around the corner!  I have pastel, springy, Easter Egg-y colors on the brain lately.

With that in mind, I created these pretty earrings with copper flower components I embossed in my Big Shot, then enameled in Springy Robin's Egg blue. The sweet dots in Jelveh Jaferian's lampwork beads matches exactly! Not to mention the gorgeous shades of purple that surround them!

I used sterling silver to keep them soft to the eye, adding hand cut caps, little molten drops, and of course, hand wrought earwires.

And, since we all know how crazy the weather is in March, it always pays to have rain gear ready!  I chose some sweet, colorful, fun items to wear when the Spring rain comes!

Art. Life. Love.

Hoot

It is safe to say that I am loving life being able to stay home and create on a daily basis. No more offices, fancy dress clothes and aggravations that come along with working outside the home. Although I do miss seeing the art every day at the Museum, it really has been wonderfully rewarding doing what I'm doing. These earrings were inspired by my love of jewelry and my mantra these days: LOVE LIFE
I cut out the copper and Silver sheet, hammered each piece, and oxidized them using liver of sulphur.  I stamped the words on the silver discs. Wire wrapped them with some copper wire and include sweet tiny kite charms from Elaine Ray.

Nothing is more fun than a little window shopping in the wee hours of the morning, so I put together an outfit that you could probably see me wearing if you stopped by my house unannounced.

Rustic Indonesian Glass

The art of glass bead making in Indonesia dates back to at least 600 AD, with most of the oldest beads discovered near East Java. Indonesia is strategically located for trade, so the beads were used as currency. They were coveted for their protective powers, many people believed these beads could keep evil spirits from harming them.

These colorful glass beads add so much character to handmade jewelry and I like to use them often. This earring design uses rustic blue Indonesian glass beads in a triangular shape with hand forged oblique copper hoops, Greek bronze coated flake shaped ceramic beads and orange Czech glass.

Saffron Squares

Loved these little saffron Czech beads that I bought from Arte Bella Surplus and thought I'd pair them with some turquoise chips. You could wear them with so many different outfits but here's what I came up with on Polyvore.

Run Around Blues...

I'm a mom and I do a lot of running around, so I keep my outfits pretty basic.  Since my outfits stay pretty simple my accessories need to add that little pop of color.  I could see me wearing this outfit running my errands with these sweet, girly blue heart earrings and who could not love that purse!

Have a Wonderful Wednesday, you're half way to the weekend!
