I hope you enjoyed the blue/green studs from last week.
Now it’s time to share some more of the necklaces with you! I was really pleased with how these turned out. They are both made with the same beads, but start at different points on the spectrum. I have etched the beads on these necklaces. They are available for sale in my online shop.
Today it’s so cold here, I’m starting to remember what winter feels like (and I don’t like it at all).
So, today I put on my new red boots, and every time I looked at them, I felt happy. Do you have a colour that works like that for you? Or an accessory? For me, it’s red shoes!
This weekend I will be setting up my window display at T’Arts. The theme is “Something new from something old”, and it’s coming together really nicely (I think)! I have all sorts of new things from old things. When I say old “things” I mean –
Hope you are having a great week.
After sharing the vibrant fine silver wire necklaces from last week, I thought it would be nice to share some more stud earrings.
I actually love all of these earrings, and I could see myself eventually owning most of the colours that I’ve made. Having said that, if there is a colour that you would like, and it’s not available in my online shop, then please feel free to let me know. I’m happy to add to the range.
When I make glass beads from recycled glass sources, I try really hard to let the beauty of the glass shine through. In these sets, the glass is only decorated with some fine silver wire. The colour is so beautiful in each of them. Bombay Sapphire Gin, Green Depression Glass and Skyy Vodka.
Last week I shared the first set of studs. This week I’m sharing the first of the new necklaces.
I have made these beads a bit different from the way I usually make them. I have used two colours, and I love the way this necklace looks, the result is really colourful and interesting. The fine silver wire and the silver beads in between add some sparkle to the necklace.
They are available for sale in my online shop.
I’ve made some new etched glass bead jewellery, with options! You can choose silver or silk cord. And you can also choose long or shorter earrings. Here are two of the colour ways that I like a lot because you can wear them with lots of different things:
I have 5 new posts to share with you for this month’s Colour Play!
So last month was quite grey, but this month is very colourful! I’ve made 4 new necklaces (in 2 different styles), and 9 pairs of stud earrings.
I’m going to share the first set of stud earrings first! I’m really excited about these earrings. I’ve been wearing a test yellow pair for a week or so now, and I love the pop of colour that it gives me! I tend to wear a lot of black/white/grey at the moment, and the yellow contrasts this perfectly.
The stud earrings are bigger and flatter than the studs I have been making. They are available for sale in my NEW online shop!
Next week I’ll share some of the necklaces I have made.
Some new work in the window at T’Arts!
Walk with a difference today. It was on the treadmill. My husband is still away, so I am limited in the walks I can do. The treadmill is nice, it gets the walk ticked off the to-do list, but I have missed my morning walk with my dog to the river and back.
I’m working on my new Colour Play jewellery. It’s coming together nicely, and will be available for sale in my new online shop on Thursday!
I’m also working on a window display for T’Arts. That is going to be all about recycling. Recycling of old glass products, old necklaces, old ideas….I’m excited to see what else pops up before it’s time to set up.
Don’t forget to visit T’Arts while their fundraising window is set up. All items are $10 or $15 and all proceeds go to the McGrath Foundation. I have donated 9 pairs of earrings, and I think a few pairs have already sold.
