More Gorgeous JEWELRY PATTERNS and TUTORIALS from the Masters

LOL I 've been picked again. Another great collection of jewelry Tutorials - Mine is the puffy heart - I must try taking another photo of some of the other colors I have made, it is so hard to show the sparkle of the Swarovski s.

Anyhow, make sure you pop over to the treasury and have a look :)

A weekends work

Ok - so a bit longer than a weekend....

I went away for a few day with some of my beading friends and we decided to try lots of new techniques, metal stamping, etching and resin. (oh and a bit of wirework...)

All were very successful and we all netted some interesting and unique pieces.

These are mine :)

In the Nouveau

Sat down this afternoon to finish off a necklace design I have been working on for ages, well - its at the point where I don't know what to do next, so was trying some new things, and before I knew it, I had a new bracelet and the necklace is still unfinished!! LOL

But I do like the bracelet....

I've been busy making roses, and whats more I have made some of them into necklaces :)

I am doing heaps with glass pearls at the moment, they look so vintage - I just love the look .
