Accessory to the Pink Ribbon


I created these two pieces for an upcoming event at Java Soul. There will be wine, cheese and door prizes and part of the proceeds from jewellery sales will go towards Breast Cancer research. I will be there as well as other local artisans. The event will be held the evening of March 12th. I will post more details later, stay tuned.

Shades of the Far East

My bench block quest has now been successful. This necklace was made using a bench block and a hammer to flatten the wire. I've made several pairs of earrings using this technique but they have all sold before I had a chance to post pix! I plan on making more though. The nice thing about this technique is that it opens up a whole bunch of design possibilities for me. I can't wait to continue exploring...

Turquoise Earrings


I made these earrings using turquoise nuggets and sterling silver wire. Although they are long, they are quite comfortable. These earrings are fast becoming a favourite of mine!
