I Still Make Jewelry

 

 

 

Life is what happens when your busy making other plans.

Bang head here

Trying new technology makes me want to you know

Anyone still reading this blog?

I do still make jewelry and thought I would post some pictures before more time went by

A Peek

Hearts and hands have always been a favorite.



Plan B - Part 1

      Thought I would share some pieces that didn't turn out as planned.

I showed this in a earlier post.  Pretty as it is it didn't function, the focal was constantly on the inside of my arm.
  Really annoying, and not a design I would be comfortable lising.

Plan B

Not annoying to wear, stays where it should and I think the swirly design on the etched metal looks good with the cut steel.

And just to put it out there . .  Plan B needs a little tweaking.  The rivets stretched when I formed the cuff around the mandrel.  Sooooo, I'm starting on Plan C this afternoon, tiny nuts and bolts will be replacing the rivets.

And since things don't work out as planned I'll be posting Plan B - Part 2 soon.

I had to Have them

Aren't these the sweetest beads



I'm not sure how I missed them before, but

when I saw them on www.SueBeads.blogspot.com post

I'm wearing them now

New Design (kind of)

Same old bezels

That's right seven days without internet service.
