Thinking Pink in October

Because October is Breast Cancer Awareness month, I've made some jewelry in the traditional pink this month - a bracelet of pink and silver and angel earrings of pink and gold. Don't you love the little halos on the angels?

I'm getting ready to open my Etsy store, and have been making a lot of jewelry in anticipation. I'll also have my polymer clay work there... I've just been on a jewelry spree lately.

I have also made this "Cubist Necklace" and the prettiest ever Christmas tree earrings. But I can't get a good photo of these earrings to save my life! They are so glittery but my camera can't see it. Hopefully I will get a better photo of them soon, if so I will re-post them. They are made with Swarovski Margarita beads and Swarovski Bicones and Sterling Silver.

Sterling & Jasper

I'm ready to start blogging about my adventures with polymer clay and jewelry, and life in general. I recently created a necklace that I love - it's made with Sugalite Jasper and Sterling Silver, and I think it turned out great. It does have one flaw, unfortunately, but it's an easy fix and I'll be doing that tomorrow. The silver wire that I used to make an interesting connection with just isn't working as well as I'd like, so I'm going to put the sterling silver textured jump rings there instead. Too bad, really, because I liked the "artsy" look they added. But they can't stay if they will be a bother to the wearer.

I really love this necklace! I hope you do, too. It will be one of the featured items on my Spotlight on Designer at the Soft Flex beading wire website in November. I also shared it at the Claypen chat a couple of weeks ago.
