Look at me! Me!

I got another skirt from Secretlentil yesterday and of course I'm wearing it today.  It doesn't matter that I don't have any tops to match.  It's just an awesome sculptural skirt and I'm going to wear it no matter what.

In the studio, I finished up another batch of maple leaf brooches, this time with a bit of the blue patina.  I'm stocking up for shows.

Acorn Jewelry

Look at this gorgeous one of a kind set

Sterling silver acorn and oak leaf earrings with a matching oak leaf necklace

  


and a dramatic maple leaf brooch in bronze.

I managed to finish a knitted hat that I've been working on for, oh, a year or so.  I prefer crocheting to knitting, so I didn't work on it very often.

Studio Update

I've been building up stock for future art show/sales, a lot of leafy pieces for those. 

Grape leaf earrings with an antique-blue patina


and a matching pendant.

I indulge in a chasing or two, every time I feel like I've accomplished enough limited production work. 

My Get Lucky belt buckle, just in time for St. Patrick's Day.  The silver clover pendants were popular last year.  Maybe I will try to fit in a few more this month.

Last of the petite silver roses for awhile

These will be the last of the petite silver roses for awhile.  I've got a gallery show coming up this summer.  I need to get ostentatious and expressive!  I need to think about displays.  A blog on at least one type of display will be coming soon.

First earrings.  Heirloom silver roses- so pretty- front view on ear and a view of the backs.  I have two pairs which  you can find in the earring section of my etsy shop.
 

Two more petite rose pendants.
 

and finally, a very simple and elegant silver leaf.  This is on a black cord.  If you'd prefer a silver chain, just let me know.

Petite Silver Roses

Petite Rose Goodies now, heirloom roses for your neck.


Again, take a look at detail on the back as well as the front. The roses look beautiful all around.

Roses and a Tendril

I've done one more bronze rose on a gray silk choker.  This one has an antique golden brown patina with a bit of green/blue patina, in the crevices and on the back.




I've had a few requests for small rose pendants, so here is one in bronze, on a 20 inch silver chain. Please let me know if you prefer a brass chain or a black cord style necklace.  I can easily change out the necklace, or sell the pendant without any chain.




and finally, a very simple and small silver tendril pendant on a 20 inch silver chain.
