I’m very excited about these! I’ve been working away on a new line of necklaces, and today I’m going to give you all a look at the first few in the line.

As do many of my new ideas (and, I’m sure, yours too) the design of these necklaces just popped into my head when I was reading a novel. All of a sudden, I thought “now, if I just do that…” and viola! ‘Delicious’ were born!

They are a line of wire-formed pendants, incorporating many different styles of bead. The first two I’m going to show you are quite similar – in that they both use copper wire and blue/brown hues of beads.

I’ve made a whole bunch of these, and I’m going to gradually list them in my Etsy shop over the next few weeks. These two are up there right now :)

Let me know what you think, and keep an eye on the blog (you could always subscribe so you don’t miss a post!) – I’ll post pictures of more ‘Delicious’ necklaces soon!

Ah, Christmas Eve!

Here is a view of my back yard this Christmas Eve morning…

Jealous? :) It has been quite hot so far this summer, but the worst is yet to come – January is traditionally the hottest month. I have been busily crafting away these past few weeks, but I have only had the energy to list a few things on Etsy – so I thought I’d give you a peek at what I’ve been working on…

I made a whole stack of sea glass pendants when we were over on Moreton Island the other week -

I also made my first set of briolette wire-wrapped earrings a few weeks ago. They’re not perfect, but I like them, and I’ve worn them a few times. I even had a girl on the street comment as to how much she liked them, so that’s a good sign!

I’m still crocheting with wire, and yesterday I made this necklace. I  also bought a litte bit of bracelet memory wire and used the left over beads to make a matching bracelet!

My newest experiment has been making simple pendants out of wire. I’m not sure about these, but I’ll keep experimenting and see if I can work out a good technique for them.

I’ve found a new passion! After seeing a ring made by a fellow crafter on Crafteroo.co.uk, I popped over to her blog, followed links to tutorials, got the general idea, and then got creative!

Thanks KittyB, for sharing!!

Here’s what I came up with…

First, a simple ring made with silver-plated wire and a square bead.

Then, I decided a sea glass and copper ring was in order. And so it was…

What do you think? I love the sea glass ring – I’m now planning to start making more and putting them in my etsy shop. Perhaps some brass and sterling silver ones, too?
