Here are my newest creations! 4 new bracelets for your shopping pleasure! Already in my Etsy shop and waiting for new homes. Copper coiled bracelet with green Pandora focal I love working with copper. It's so rich and warm. I made fine gauge coils and added some copper and sterling beads and this one has a handmade Pandora style lampwork bead as a focal. Its green, beige, ivory, silver and gold. A nice mix of metals. Funky bangle- mixed metals- jungle A similar style to other bangles I've made. It's a slip on- no clasp. It's just lots of wire, twisted wire sterling and copper, fashioned with an artisan made glass lampwork diamond shaped bead with jungle patterned glass. This one shows more silver, but has some copper throughout. A mix of Bali beads and a few others. A thin bangle, but very sturdy. Call it: industrial, steampunk, heavy metal, biker, rocker. Here's another like the last, but I used heavy gauge sterling as the core and more copper shows on the outside....

New items in my shop and more news

I finally got a job! Part-time only for now, but that's o.k. It's been over 8 months since I've worked out of the home. And it's not easy to get back in the swing of things when you've been away from it for so long. Boy, am I tired, and boy, is my body sore! BTW: I am a veterinary technician, C.V.T. It's all new, so we'll see how it goes! Here's a couple of new items that I've finished. First is a lapis and Hill Tribe silver necklace with a Hill Tribe pendant. It's simple, but it's something I've been wanting to make. Oh, and I made this great anklet; lapis with crystal quartz and Herkimer diamond . If you've never seen or heard of Herkimer diamonds, they are hard like a real diamond and have great shine, they look like glass with double terminated points. And I made this fun "candy apple" bracelet and earring set. Great lampwork beads from Quinlan Glass and lots of heavy gauge wire wrapped beads, coils and clasp. ...
