Rings and Bits

I didn't do any jewellery making while i was away.
I had a lovely time but it was not conducive to jewellery making.
Today with no voice and an annoying cough I settle in to make some easy jewellery.

I pulled out some magazines for inspiration and came up with the following.


Heart Ring

ugh excuse the dry hands... man sand and salt really doesn't help your skin

Xmas in July
This is a challenge piece for crafty mamas. Simply Xmas in July. They are xmas trees. I think they need a star and some green beads too.

Hopefully will do more jewellery throughout the week.

Wire Overload

Today I bit the bullet. I have been putting it off and putting it off but it can no longer be ignored. I ordered my first bulk lot of wire. It is coming from NSW and in it the order includes wire I have only rarely used. Square and 1/2 round. I purchased the half round as it is better to bind with. It sits a little neater when doing the binds and I do believe it grips the wire better once pulled tight.

My obsession with wire is increasing. I also received some lovely wire magazines. These I will continue to collect as I go on. Maybe one day I will be able to let them go but I suspect not for many years yet.

It could be time to clean out my beading magazines.

Moonlight Magic

Do you know the secret life of butterflies? not many do. But i will let you in on a secret. When the moon is full in the sky and its silver light streams between the branches of trees in the forest. the butterflies dance turning to silver when the moonlight touches them.

Sterling Silver surrounds this lovely green and brown heart. It would hang nicely rom a sterling silver chain or as you can see looks lovely on the leather.
