Earring Trio

I purchased a light box earlier this week and I have been inspired by the quality of photos I am getting with it.  I am still in the viney tendril phase as you can see by the latest earrings.  I used pure copper on every bit of the pieces and the dangles are held on by balled copper head pins which I also made in the torch.

Romanov Weave


I made a similar bracelet a few years ago, with some bright pink crystals in the center, and my older daughter took if for her own.  So I thought I'd make another one for myself, but with carnelian 6mm beads in the center.  The rings are 18g sterling with 16g for the larger connecting rings.  It's a weighty and beautiful piece.

Acorn Beaded Necklace



I bought this great acorn bead on etsy or ebay, and design ideas have been swirling around in my head ever since. The main necklace is crocheted and has taken forever to finish, but it looks quite nice, and the acorn pendant part was finished up today. It hangs from an even-count peyote bail. It was made to fit over my head for strength, and for ease in wearing.
