    Pics of my jewellry creations

    Here are a few pics of some other jewellry I have made

    This first one is a pendant I made out of Sterling Silver Jump Rings. It wasn't hard... just tedious.


    These other ones are some bracelets I put together the other day.




    Hope you like them.




    R.I.P my dear Sweet Teddy. You will be missed forever. We love you.

    BEAUTIFUL! I love silver. Do you happen to sell things you make? The first one is amazing.

    Thank you Kay for the beautiful sig!

    I love the pendant! All are pretty but that really stands out.

    Could you make a snowflake out of the jumpringgs? If not, I'd be interested in the first one, too.

    I did the right thing by setting you free
    But the pain is very deep.
    If only I could turn back time, forever, you I'd keep.
    I miss you


    I hear you whimper in your sleep
    I gently pet you and say, no bad dreams
    It will be alright, to my dog as dark as night.

    Fur as dark as the night.
    Join me on this flight.
    Paws of love that follow me.
    In my heart you'll forever be.

    How I wish I could hold you near.
    Turn back time to make it so.
    Hug you close and never let go.

    I could probably mess around with a pattern for a snowflake.... but I can't make any promises LOL I am new working with the chainmail effects.

    The first one was all in sterling silver so it turned out to be a bit pricey to make and it sells for almost $100. BUT If I didn't use sterling silver it would be much cheaper. They make coloured jump rings out of stainless steel and other metals and those are kind of neat and much less expensive. I think I can get the stainless steel types in silver colour too.

    It is amazing how much stuff like this is marked up in "fine" jewellry stores. We priced out a bracelet one time that we saw in a magazine and had almost the exact same materials used to make it... in the magazine it was $150 and we could make it and sell it for $50 (that is materials and labor together) It was astonishing to see how over priced some stuff is.

    BCollie, thank you very much... but I can't take all the credit.... I had/have fantastic teachers. I learn more from them everyday.

    You have a real talent. I would purchase any of these. Are you going to take them to an art show? I think they would sell very well.

    Actually... the first three bracelets are going to a craft show this weekend with my boss. LOL but she just won't part with the pendant.... good thing she "donated" those materials to me because she basically stole my pendant hahahaha. She displays it in the store but I catch her wearing it all the time lol.

    But I haven't tried selling any in art shows myself just yet. Most of my "business" has been through friends and family. It was kinda scary for me to sell my stuff because I knew I liked them but that didn't mean others would like them. LOL I fretted for weeks when I made a set for a friend's husband, he wanted it done in the colours of their new baby's room (blue, yellow and white) I just kept looking at it thinking "Gosh, I hope this is what he was hoping for" They loved it and that really helped me gain some confidence.... so I think I will start branching out more and more.

    Thank you for the wonderful comments.

    I make jewellery too. I sell some at shows and I have some in a store in town. I don't make much at it, but it gives me enough to buy more beads! You can never have too many beads!!

    Very nice work!
