Finished Projects 1-19-12

So I finished a couple of projects today. The beaded bracelet that I started yesterday is done, and looking pretty good if I don't say so myself. Hopefully, I can get good photos of it soon and get it listed.

The next thing I did was to work on some earrings. They are very simple. Just a Swarovski circle and a Swarovski crystal beaded ball. Simple but yet elegant.

Really hoping to be able to get a couple of nice days to get photos of some other pieces that have been made for a while but never listed. I have Phoenix earrings, Sun earrings, more Swarovski earrings, a Rosary, a Pendulum, and more. I have such a backlog of things that need to go up. But at least it will keep me busy for a while.

Work in Progress 1-18-12

So I have been working on a new bracelet and so far it is going pretty well. Here is the current progress.

It is a 2 toned European 4-1 in light blue and a brighter "peacock" blue. The seed beads are about the same shade as the light blue rings which make up the middle "spine" of the weave.

Upcoming projects:

*Alice in Wonderland*

For this, I am going to tear apart the current piece and rework it into a better and more whimsical necklace. I am planning a Helm or a Wave Helm weave with a cluster of Swarovski's and a possible charm.

*Chained Shoulder Dusters*

I worked on a new necklace last night and need to make matching earrings for it. These are going to be black chains of varying lengths with the longest pieces dangling to the shoulder. This should be a really amazing piece that I can not wait to unveil!
