It was quite an honor when
Marjorie Oxman contacted me a couple of months ago
asking if she could
feature my jewelry in the 2010 Wire Art Jewelry Calendar she was
putting together. What a lovely compliment! The calendar
has now been completed and
my Colonial flutist pendant designed from
Crest-O-Gold china is featured on the July page.
It's a
lovely 13-month calendar featuring 35 wire art jewelry designs.
Jewelry artists
will enjoy the inspiration each month will bring.
And what a great gift it would make for
any of your friends who enjoy
jewelry.
I recently sold my last sea glass wire
crochet necklace so I figured it was time to make some more! Love working with
sea glass - almost as much as I love working with
broken china. Sea glass has always been a part of my life.
Living on the Jersey Shore,
I collected sea glass as a child and then when my daughter was little,
we collected it
together. I've used it to decorate picture frames, made mosaics
with it, displayed it in
glass bottles and now love to include it in my jewelry.
Since copper wire is my favorite
wire to work with, I really wanted to use it this time. First of
all was picking the color
of sea glass to use. Blue and copper? White and
copper? Green and copper! That was
it!
This copper wire crochet necklace has an authentic green sea glass wire
wrapped
pendant.
The pendant is 3/4" x 1-3/4" counting bail. The necklace is 20"
long counting
clasp. (Can be lengthened or shortened
according to your preference - just let me
know).
For my second design, I decided to use a lovely shaped brown piece of
sea glass.
This is a copper wire crochet necklace with authentic brown sea glass
wire wrapped
pendant.
Pendant is 3/4" x 1-3/4" counting bail. Necklace is 22" long
counting clasp.
(Also can be lengthened or shortened
according to your preference - let me know).

That's it for
now.
Lots of new ideas and creations coming soon. Until then, be well,
be happy, be safe!
