Well, 2011 was an exciting year of doing this for a business...but I for sure have decided to not continue this into 2012. I am sorry to disappoint anyone - but I am very happy to be back at crafting just for the fun of it! :)

Spring is finally here!

Here are a few new pieces.  I loved how this first one turned out with the cascading cluster of birthstones in the center.  Yeah!!! :)


This was my friend's idea to stamp the initials like this.  The photography is still tricky for me, but in person I am really pleased with how delicately pretty it turned out!  Script font is a really classy font to work with, I love it. :)


I love trying new things.  This was my first piece featuring a last name and the kiddos' birthstones.  A fun new variation.  I really like the "classic" look of this piece with the centered text.


Thanks for stopping by to view the new pieces.  Have a blessed week everyone!

I'm so thankful for the bits of time I get to create new pieces here and there.  Here are the two recent pieces I finished.

This first piece is another name meaning pendant, the original idea given to me by my mom.  Jessica means "God's grace"...what an incredible name to be blessed in life with!  It was stamped on Pure Aluminum - an affordable, wonderful, skin safe metal to work with!


This second piece is a small version of one of my favorites.  It is a 3/4" bowl, with a delicate freshwater pearl center.

Thanks to my WONDERFUL hubby - I had some time to create today, hooray!!!  Love, love, love the Vintaj wire I found for the new birds nests I can now make :).  It is hard to tell in my photos, but these have an antiqued brass look.

Today's samples...




And a friend just recently shared some exciting news, so another "expecting" necklace.  Really, it just acts as a place holder for a few months ;0).

I'm just starting to work on another fun new pendant...wire wrapped birds nests!  I can't wait to finish and post them; they are adorable!

In in the meantime, a fun new variation on the versatile 1" washer...


This is the first time I've clustered the Swarovski channel drop crystals together in the center.  Definitely a fun look! :)  This piece had the most wonderful birthstone color combination!!!

A few new ones to post today :)...




And of course, I keep seeing adorable Freshwater Pearl and Sterling Silver earrings that I love :).  Just had to try my hand at a couple sets :).  The last one is just a fun stick drop of Swarovski crystal briolettes.  I can wear it with jeans or dressed up!

Yeah - a few new ones to post!  I really love making pieces for fun verses a business.  The fun is back!! :)

This one is a brand new bracelet style that I just tried for a friend.  LOVE the hammered edges!!!


I think this is my first square washer not turned and angled like a diamond.  This provides a fun variation for someone with three names instead of four, who loves the square shape!

Here are a few more to post.  The first two are petite flower initial pendants, super dainty and cute!!  One is domed and the other bowled for two different effects.  Birthstone charms added as well.



A dear friend is soon welcoming a precious blessing #2!!! :)  Love, Love, Love the boy/girl combos on the 3/4" round and 3/4" flower!!!!

Now caught up...

I have been wanting to make a stack of three bowled pieces for awhile now and I recently had the opportunity to make one.  I am sooooo excited with how this turned out!


So, after finishing the above, I had to make another version of the stack I had been wanting to do...one in mixed metals.  So this is made of copper, nickel and brass.  And this font is just so gorgeous!!!  I rarely use it because it is a bit larger, but for this piece, it couldn't have worked out better :).


For two special friends of ours :)...



And I'd love to get some opinions on this gift I just made.  With the Sterling Silver spacer bead, or without?  With the side pearl and crystal charms or without?




Well, I'm calling it a night.  Thanks for looking at the new pieces! :)

I found a few more to post...

These are my Mom's idea...doing stamped necklaces for name meanings.  What a wonderful idea, Mom! :)
