More Blue.....

Still feeling the blues :-). This time it is a pale, pale blue. Clear glass rectangles with pale blue flowers all through them. I paired these with simulated crystal rounds and silver findings. It's simple, but those end up being my favorite pieces.

Making Christmas.....

I finished the last of my Christmas orders tonight, and breathed a sigh of relief. I am finally done making Christmas. The watches were a customer order for one of my best friends in the whole world, Kitty Fidget. She wanted them for her nieces. One will stay here in Georgia, the other making it's home in Florida. I hope that they enjoy them - I did.
Merry Christmas everyone. I hope the holiday season, and the new year, find you happy, healthy and with the ones that you love.

Out of Touch.....

I haven't posted in days. I had planned to put up a new blog this weekend. The best laid plans and all of that. Instead a virulent stomach flu decided to rip through our house and afflict everyone with the exception of me. Prior to it descending I was able to finish these pieces. I love the frosted glass bar pendant. I found silver pinch bails to attach it and just blended crystal, black and silver accents.

I happen to love this one. Glass beads are a favorite of mine. I would like to take credit for the wire wrapping, but cannot. That is still on my to-do list to figure out so I will admit I purchased these already done. It was one of those pieces that went together so easily it was done before I realized it. I hope it finds a good home and someone else to love it as much as I do.

More Frosted Glass

Just a short one today. Here is another pendant that I found at the same time as the Robert Frost. I love how these look. Just wish I could find some frosted beads to scatter on the necklaces too.

Lady Bug Fun

I love the classic combination of red and black. I love the patina on the silver findings. On this one I mixed glass beads with simple plastic ones so that the weight would be comfortable.

But what I enjoy the most is when you finally get a closer look at it. That is when you see the lady bugs!

Green Glass

I found these green glass squares on "black Friday". I didn't do the whole, big shopping bit. I just went out for a bit with my sister in law. As she is recovering from surgery we took it easy. She is just getting into beading so we decided to peruse the local Michael's.

Unfortunately I could only find one strand, and with a broken piece to boot. I still couln't resist. But due to the amount that I had no other choice could be made but a choker. Even without earrings to match this one sold just as quickly as the others. I hope Claudia enjoys wearing it as much as I enjoyed making it.

Birds Revisited....

I feel so in love with the birds I decided I had to make another.

I guess it could end up being a bit redundant but I know I am not finished with these little guys. The possibilities are endless. I can guarantee that there will be more of them. My good friend at Witch Hollow was kind enough to fill my head with so many ideas. They are clamoring to come out!

I think that I love the earrings this time as much as I do how this version of the birds turned out.

Autmn Inspiration

While it may feel wintry outside it is still just fall. I wish that I were able to find some fall foliage in the colors that I can see in my back yard but until then this should hold me over. This is another piece that went so quickly I didn't even get to enjoy it for more than 24 hours..but that isn't all bad.
