Finished necklace number 2. Still have 6 more to make.
These are beads I made over the weekend. More to add to the bead show stash.
Periwinkle Curvy Wire Necklace
I got an order for eight of these necklaces. I got most of the hard work done and now I just have to add the glass balls and link the wires together. The fun part is bending them into shapes. This is the first one.
The wire is copper that has been patina’ed and tumbled to harden the wire.
Square Chip Beads and Sterling Silver Charms
I’m sure getting tired of making square chip beads. I think my idea of making them in all colors isn’t going to happen. These are the ones I finished up so far this weekend.
And some new sterling silver charms that I’ve been working on for weeks. Finally got around to finishing them up.
Silver Cored Beads
I finally got around to adding the silver tubing to the hole in these beads. It’s not like it takes a long time to do, just that it’s kind of boring. They do look nice all shiny after being tumbled.
Another Squiggle Wire Necklace
I decided to try another one using different colors for the glass balls. I made the balls bigger so they would show up more too.
These are so much fun to make. I love bending the wire into different shapes.
Squiggle Wire Necklace
This necklace was a test to see if I could make small glass balls on the end of wire. One end was balled up and then hammered flat and drilled to make a hole. The wires are linked together with a wire going through the holes, then the glass ball is added to the other side.
Close up of the links.
Focal Beads and Glass Cabochon Charms
More beads. And some new glass cabochon charms that I finished up over the weekend.
Another set of leaf head pin in purple.
Hey, how did that bunny get into the litter?
Couple more chickens….
Glass cabochon charms. They have a loop on the other end so they dangle.
Enameled Pieces
I didn’t get a chance to make a lot of beads this weekend. My cat had dental surgery this weekend and needed extra care. I was able to get together with my play day group and we played with enamels. Here’s the stuff I made.
These are domed copper discs. The one on the left had some interesting texture in it before I put a layer of clear enamel on. I should have left the clear enamel off. Lesson learned. The right one, has little beads that I stuck on I used some pigment enamels to add some red dots. Probably could have added more. 
The left piece was totally different until I put some colored enamel on it. I have no idea what I’m going to do with it yet. It’s a form folded piece I made eons ago and I have no idea how I’m going to set it in something to make it into a piece of jewelry. Maybe in another eon, I’ll come up with an idea. It doesn’t sit flat so that’s an issue right there. The piece on the right I domed with a die on a pneumatic press on textured copper. There is only a coat of white enamel on the top so the colors from the copper came through. I like the way this looks so I’m not experimenting on it. I’ll probably set this one first since it’s the easiest.
Round Sterling Silver Charms
These are hollow too. I used sterling silver tubing for these so they are slightly easier to make than the other shaped ones.
Sterling Silver Hollow Charms
These are part of my Modern Talisman Component line which is different pieces that can be mixed and matched.
These are tiny, like less than 1/2 inch at the largest point. Except the last one. Not sure what I’m going to use that one for yet.
