New Designs in Time for Christmas

Made some new pieces for the boutique than sells my designs.  Here is a picture of some of those pieces.  Really would like to have a Christmas Open House but don't know if I can get that many more pieces made but I'll sure try!  If you see anything you like let me know, I will either hold it back from the shop or I'll make something similiar.  Remember everything is hand made so no two items are alike!

Another Tool for Metal Working




I have been using my friends machine to emboss metal for jewelry making and I decided to buy my own. I love it and I love all the designs I can now embellish on my metal!

Etching My Heart Out :)

















I so enjoy etching metal. I use muriatic acid and I can only get about one etching per bath so I don't get many pieces etched at a time. I love riveting other metals to these pendants and making jewelry out of them! I have bike riding friends I think about whenever I see a bicycle! Perhaps a Christmas pendant for one of them :)

Back Again!

I can not believe it's been so long since I've added anything to my blog! I seem to be able to manage only one site at a time and I'm trying to use my IPad to post this blog! Hope it posts properly! I've made many new designs using mixed metals, charms, patina's and I'll get them download and posted soon! Getting ready to have some surgery so I'll be laid up a bit and hopefully I'll make good use of the time and manage some much needed duties!
