The new Heart Pendants are off the bench! There are 3 sizes, under the name of the Big Heart Pendant - the large size, the Simple Heart Pendant - the medium size, and the Sweet Heart Pendant - the smallest of them all. They all come in 4 bright finishes, on a matte black cable chain with an easy toggle and bar clasp, and in 2 lengths. I have been wanting to add some pendants to my free forms jewelry collection I started last year and am very excited to finally have them online in my store!
Check them out and join my collector circle so you don't miss a beat. Have been working on some new pendants to add to my Free Form Jewelry collection and experimenting with different chains...many possibilities, but trying to pin down the best one! I think I like this second chain, and in the meantime have soldered 4 different heart elements, ready for the finishing process.
Planning on having 3 sizes available next week....jump into my circle for first dibs! I can't even remember how long the twisted+wires jewelry collection has been around...let's say, a couple of decades? It started as joyful playtime with copper, brass and silver wires long ago, and it kept going strong, all these years. After all the recent swirling changes and curved balls of life hitting the ground, I made a very resisted decision to retire this jewelry line from retail sales. It is, after all, time to let it rest. All I can now say is: don't miss it! (grin) Spirit 2 found its home, at last, early this month. In fact, it all started and ended on a Wednesday, June 1, when this one-of-a-kind necklace was picked up from its display case, almost in a sweeping gesture, by an unassuming customer on a showroom visit. Spirit 2 - Necklace It all happened so quickly, I did not have time to fully grasp the sudden departure of a beloved piece, the second of a series of 3 unique necklaces, all with the spirit of late summer colors in mind. Back from the earliest playful experiments and through the years, evolution and simple variations on a theme, always and forever late summer colors mood. And now there is number 3, medley of copper and silver elements with heat hues and splashes of black patina to play with along a bead silver chain in colorful arrangements. Spirit 3 Necklace It's time for Spring! It's all I can think about these days, in between melting snow flakes and pale rays of sunshine, the blue skies just autside the door. I replenished my inventory, I got all my Twists and Turns lined up and ready to spring forward with color! I also introduced the Bangle Sets to make life easier for everybody, so you can stack them up and have them all! ![]() Speaking of sets, here is one with the Stick Pendants in various combinations.
They are ready to go on an adjustable black cotton cord with matching sliders for any length preference. Spring cleaning is in the air, regardless of the weather showing otherwise and the world longing for peace... I reworked these earrings below, made them even more irresistible than before, and so so light to wear! Of course, big is key, and all the colors they come in. But most importantly, they swing! The Season of the Heart continues and it's full-blowing...and I have to admit, I resisted the hearts ALL those seasons! But not anymore, today I am out of the closet and I bring hearts with me! Been enjoying myself in the studio these past few weeks, defying the cold, no firewood, and the broken space heater that sat next to me, nonetheless, pretending. Can you resist them? Didn't think so...
I am obsessed now. So cannot resist to let you in in another quick peek into my studio doings... More Hearts coming...in vibrant colors to warm yours!
The beat starts live on Thursday/February 3rd in my online store.... Well, I have no excuses. I wrote before I was never into this 'heart' thing, admitted I toiled with some of them...but NEVER thought I would be caught in the act! Gotta say though, all those 'heart' memories gave some itching to my hands, and I just could not resist. Not anymore. So here we go, blushingly disclosing my latest 'heart-shaped' happy ongoing experiments in the studio...it's play time, and I like it!
Picking up from an older project, almost a year from today. Woke up in the middle of the night recently, eyes wide open, like something calling from afar and, all of a sudden, I saw this: Notes and scribblings on copper to remind me of thing to make, sooner or later...
My hands are itching to explore, a fresh push for new beginnings... |
