This month I did a new challenge . Heather Powers of Humblebeads held a muffin tin challenge! To participate we were to get a muffin pan and fill it up with all of the things we would need to create 6-12 pieces of jewelry. I used this to try some new things, make a custom order and to finish up some others pieces. It was really fun (in spite of my being sick most of this month) I completed several items.
Mitten made on the jig with a little bit of beading added for fun color.
I've been wanting to make a pair of earrings with "built-in" earworm wires so I used a pair of my steel head pins leaves, wire wrapped some beads and voila!
I'm not quite sure how I feel about this piece yet, soon we'll see if I remake it, but it works for now. The beautiful foX is from Summer Windows Art and I love it! I added the Picasso coated rondelles and seed beads with the wood bead and copper.
I made these faux Roman glass discs last spring so now was the time to add pretty, blue rondelles in different sizes with the steel "messy wrapping" and my own ear wires.
I love how these turned out! Lovely fern discs by Summer Winds Art, with wood beads and glass rondelles.
This group was a special order, not my current style, but these are fun to make with neon green and cobalt blue matte, glass, pearls.
