NEW! Wire Wrapped Jewelry!
Good Friday Evening Everyone,
Wow, it has already been a rainy and windy Friday afternoon and evening here in Southern Georgia! Wind blowing.....rain hitting the front porch.....and because the soffit on the front porch needs repairing, we have some flooding in our garden, but, we hope it gets repaired soon.
So, back in July, while I was in Florida on vacation, I went into this cute shop that was full of the neatest jewelery. The owner of the store/boutique made all the pieces herself, and a majority of the pieces were wire wrapped. Now, I have seen some absolutely gorgeous wire wrapped jewelry and I have longed for a piece.
Now, I did break down and buy a piece, and was even able to get the price down a bit. After I got the piece home and began looking at it, I thought, well, Deborah, you can make this! So, I put all the painting supplies away and pulled out the jewelry making supplies. I tried my hand at a few pieces, and realized that it was harder than I thought it would be. But, I think I'm getting the swing or should I say, the "wrapping" of it, and I wanted to share a few pics of some pieces I've made. A couple pair of earrings and several pendants:
I know that they still need work, or should I say, I still need a lot of practice, but, I think I can get the hang of it. AND, I just love my "Happy Buddha" pendants! Let me know what you think!
Blessings,
Deborah
