Getting ready to rain in the desert :)

Hiked up in North Scottsdale this morning, beautiful day for it !
It's trying to rain, hopefully tonight it will.

New Bracelets

Here's the newest bunch of bracelets :)

The top one has a couple really cool spacer links that I formed out of copper.

The middle one has 4 lampwork beads that I made on the torch, they are blue and green and have some silvered ivory in them.

The bottom one's color is really nice, watery blues :)

You can find them here on my Etsy page:

2015 time to organize !!

Yikes !!  Beading supplies, glass supplies, painting supplies, crafting supplies, just needed a little organizing that all !!

Much better !!  I can walk into the room now !!

Time to start playing with Copper again !

Christmas Trees

I love Christmas !

I wanted to make some little Christmas Tree necklaces, so I cut out some Nickel Silver, hammered it, then antiqued it, wrapped some colored wire with tiny beads around it and  TA DA !  There you have it, "Grunge" style Christmas Trees :)

New Designs

It's raining here in Gilbert, AZ :)  yay, we love the rain !!

I'm heading out to the garage to play with some copper.

Just put together these new designs, I need some feedback from people before I list them.

They are made out of a piece of copper that I formed and enameled, it works as a "slider", so I then put the silk ribbon thru the folds and if you tie a simple knot at the bottom of the copper, you can adjust the length to suit you :)
