Copper and Czech Glass
I have had these copper findings for ages and finally got a chance to use them for Christmas shows…made up a bunch of wire-wrapped bracelets for inexpensive, last minute gift-giving. They were a pretty big hit!

Scorpio & Snow { Day}
I don't know where these go anymore. I've also tried to post several times to no avail. So here is Scorpio- I thought the MOP beads looked like a tail once it was done.
Here is also Snow- we had a snow day and I made these bracelets that day.
Black Hearts
Still inspired by Marianne Anderson, I'm combining black silver with GF and pearls and garnets.

Harvest Moon by Eva Sherman – Week 43
I took a microfolding metals class with Jack Berry this summer and have been playing around with it ever since. Here's a moon version, very simple, but I like the contrasting textures.

I am way behind, so I am trying to catch up, lots to post.

Playing with copper
Like the title, this was just for fun. But I did like it and will be making another with smaller links and two silver rings instead of just one. This one I gave to my daughter.
Week 43
I may have gotten my weeks messed up. This bracelet is very cool in person. Large, bold, rough cut, aquamarine quartz wrapped in ss wire. Very ostentatious, but so am I.
Melissa Muir – Week 43
Forged and Fold Formed leaves made at the Jewelry retreat. These are so much fun to make and one of the attendees showed us a great way to make the leaves look even more organic. The middle pair has ear wires attached to them and the rest still need to finished. But they will look great once I get them all done.
Fall Harvest Moon
When I thought of harvest moon I saw grapes being harvested, wine and falling leaves. I picked a new leaf off my fig tree and used it as a pattern for the focal point leaf. After forming the leaf I roll printed the copper washers. I love to paint and shadows are so important. I think that is why I love los. It gives character to antything. I know many do not have that opinion but that’s ok with me. That is what makes each of our creations so unique!!! I fastened it together with silver and wrapped amethyst and topaz to make me think of grapes in a bunch. I still have to make earrings. I wasn’t thinking when I rolled and stamped the washers so that is still to be done. Please feel free with your comments, positive or negative..

Harvest Moon-The Song-Week 43
I’m hoping that some of you know this old tune……and the meaning of "spoon",,,, well, here it is To act with demonstrative or foolish fondness, as one in love.
Shine on, shine on harvest moon
Up in the sky,
I ain’t had no lovin’
Since January, February, June or July
Snow time ain’t no time to stay
Outdoors and spoon,
So shine on, shine on harvest moon,
For me and my gal.
Shine On Harvest Moon By Nora Bayes and Jack Norworth (1903)
My piece this week is a design by Ronna Sarvas Weltman. There’s so many different shapes you can make and it’s fun to wear. I added an easylink onto my bracelet to lengthen so you can size it for any wrist.
