More pics of necklace




Wanted to add a couple more images to my blog so you guys can get a better view of this new necklace. It's pretty cool!

See ya later!

Hey all!
I'm still getting the hang of this blogging thing, but have come to terms with the idea that it's probably a good thing to keep one, and keep it updated. So...

This is my most recent jewelry design. I'm quite pleased with it: the pendant is glass backed with temperature-sensitive liquid crystal, so it acts sort of like a mood ring... It turns dark blue/green with heat. On the front of the glass I've glued a pewter silhouette of a parrot I created. I then wrapped the pendant with copper wire and strung it on memory wire with copper-colored glass tube beads and wooden oblong beads.

It was very fun to make this necklace, and it will soon be for sale on my shop.

Keep checking back for more updates!

Non-Manic Monday

Hello! This is my first Blog Post. I always swore I wouldn't become one of those people who surf the net all day and update their blogs and sites with boring and useless information, BUT... It would seem as though I, too, have fallen into the trap of the allure of this thing called "Online."

I'd like to make my blog more than just a series of inane and unnecessary updates, though. So wish me luck! I guess I'll start by stating that yes, it's official, I'm going to be exhibiting at Surtex next year! I'm sooo excited about this, and I've been preparing for it by making a model of my booth, and arranging little prints all over it (pictures forthcoming). It's quite a fun journey so far, and I anticipate updating often with new – um – updates.

Til that happens, peace be with you!
