Posted by: Carole —

These are the second pair I have made using this technique and while I love the look of these earrings, man they make my fingers sore! I have to look into getting some finger guards.:)

Monochrome Pendant week 4

Posted by: Carole —

This is my Pendant for week 4. One day late because the weather here is dark and rainy and I have not been able to get a good pic….oh man what am I going to do all winter?? Maybe I should make a light box like Ive been wanting to. Now I have a good excuse:)
It was really hard for me to come up with something for this weeks theme, and “wheels” kept popping in my head, so I tried a wheel pendant. Well, I did not execute the wheel pendant very well, so I decided to do a Mosaic. I really love doing Mosaic’s ala Eni, but never thought to do one in all silver until this weeks theme. I cant decide whether to wrap the bail or not. I’m thinking I might turn it, wrap it and add a jump-ring. Yeah, thats it…….:)
What do you think??

FSOJ Week 3

Posted by: Carole —

I didnt follow the theme this week because I had these gorgeous Labradorite beads I wanted to use. They are the hardest stone Ive ever tried to photograph! I really wish I could capture all the flash in them, because they are sooo pretty!
I really didnt like this pendant perpendicular, so I decided to make a oval frame, and this is what I achieved. It is simple, but Im happy with it:)Largerpic

Week 2 FSOJ

Posted by: Carole —

I am really excited about this piece. I used my favorite Boro’s to slowly transition the colors so they flow into each other, like from the earth to the sky. The Dirt, the grass, the oceans and the wonderful blue sky. The wire beads signify the awesome changing seasons that the Mother and Father surprise us with.
You can find some other fabulous pieces in this challenge at FSOJ 06-07
