Year of Jewelry Week 1

Last week my friend Danielle came by the studio and we started talking about black smith techniques and how they might be incorporated into jewelry designs. And before we knew it, we were off on a tangent....

YOJ Week 29 - Ride the Wave!

I don't know why I do this to myself. I'm leaving tomorrow to teach for 2 days at the Create Mixed Media Retreat in New Jersey. I should be packing, making a list, checking it twice...

But no.....

I got distracted by an idea and HAD to finish it. It started out as a triple wave cuff, but then it occurred to me that I should add some color. These beautiful enameled flowers by C-Koop are the perfect accent. It looks like the flowers are literally riding a wave down my wrist. I love it. I can't stop looking at it.

But now I really must get packing....

PS: There is still room in my classes..... :-)

Eva's Workshops at Create Mixed Media Retreat:

YOJ Week 15 - The Corrugated Cuff

so are you tired of cuffs yet? Me neither......

YOJ Week 14 - The Rosette Bangle Cuff

The rosettes I've been playing with as rings have grown up and become bangles...and from there it was only a short leap.....

Here's what I did; I took some leftover (WireKnitZ) textured metal from my rolling mill play date last weekend, created a cuff, cut the rosette bangle and riveted it to the cuff.

I think I'm liking it! :-)
