Earrings!!

Yesterdays theme seemed to be Seed Beads, todays theme appears to be earrings! I've made 4 pairs of earrings today, and am quite pleased with them :)












All can be found on Folksy or in my Facebook shop!

Seed beads!

Spent some time playing around with seed beads yesterday, and made 2 new bracelets. Seed beads are fun, but rather fiddly! I need more colours of them!

Quite pleased with both!

Other Items featuring seed beads include:




All of these can be found in my Folksy shop or my Facebook page

More silver!


So this week on my course I finished the pendant I was working on:


It's got a few scratches that I need to work off, but other than that am pretty pleased with it - seeing as it's my first attempt at working in silver!


So then I started thinking about what I was going to do next. I had a few scraps of silver left from the pendant, so thought I'd play. I cut out some squares to make some earrings with:




And then used a scrap of copper to play with some textures:



I have since decided that I am going to go for a simple hammered finish, and add some beads.

I also cut out a band to make a ring:
I will add texture to this and turn it into a ring :)


Loving this course!

Facebook Store!

I've finally added a Payvment Facebook store to my facebook page! Any feedback relating to it would be welcome :)

It can be found by clicking on the "shop now" tab here: Link


In other news, I haven't done much in the way of crafting in the last week or so, because I've been very busy, and the weather was so nice last weekend I spent most of my time outside! However I now have a week off work (half term, yay!) so should hopefully manage to get some more jewellery made this week!

Wow!

4 sales in one day! That's my new record! (Admittedly it's only to 2 different people - 1 person bought 3 items, still chuffed though!)

One of the items that's just sold is the charm bracelet I made last night, these people are quick off the mark :)

Off to bed happy now! :)

Pearls, pearls, pearls!

Been making yet another bracelet using the lovely pearl beads I got a few weeks ago... pleased with this one too :)


Find it here :)


Yesterday I got a bit carried away on ebay, and ordered lots of new beads and charms... am ever so excited about recieving them, hope they come tomorrow!! Look out for more makes soon!

I'm rather pleased with it! :)
