Layers - Fordite and Fine Silver bracelet

SOLD

In creating bracelets for my shop I dug through some fine silver beads I'd made a few years ago when I was doing more metal clay work. (You can read more on my blog about metal clay if you go to this blog post.)

A few of these beads inspired 3 new bracelets that I adore.

The first couple are inspired by the earth, while the last is inspired by the sea.

Rainbow Ring

One of my goals last summer was to make more bracelets, brooches, and even make a ring or two to add to my shop. I actually wear more bracelets than necklaces so figured others probably do the same.

Many years ago I took a workshop with the wire artist Sharilyn Miller. She was a student of the amazing master wire artist Lynne Merchant, as I was, but she spent more time with Lynne as it became a passion for her and found her own voice.

Is it me you've been waiting for?

Sigh. I can't believe I've only made one post this year. I am pretty active on Instagram and Facebook via my business page and VIP group so I forget that many of you hear what's happening with me from my blog. All I can promise is I'll try to do better.

I thought over the next few weeks I'd update you on my 2017 studio time and other stuff.
