A "bit of bling"

Hope everyone had a peaceful few days...my time was spent with family, which is all I can ask for!
Last week I had the time to take some photos of pieces to list on my website...here are a few pieces...


I crafted this pendant from sterling silver, wire wrapped the piece of cognac amber and dangled in the opening...of course hanging from a sterling silver chain...


This pendant is a favorite...a hand cut elongated fine silver triangle which had chunks of fine silver fused on top for a totally abstract look, definitly a "one of a kind"...


This was a fun set to make...if you look closely you will see this is a necklace and earring set of "flowers...this was my first attempt but I had a great time working with the silver.
This gorgeous design and technique is courtesy of a tutorial by Janice Fowler, Doxallo Designs., she has a great blog, an Etsy shop and a 1000 Markets shop...take a few minutes to have a look...


The chandeliers are sterling silver from which I've hung sparkling Swarovski crystals...perfect for New Years as they would go with what ever out fit you choose!


Back to basics...simple but effective, and you all know I prefer simple, for myself...fine silver fused circles hung on hand crafted sterling silver ear wires...perfect for every day or a special occasion, that is the beauty of them!!!

There is more to come but that is enough for one visit!!!
Enjoy your day...
Cheers
