Jewelry!

Ok, so for the last couple weeks I've been making my own jewelry. I feel so much better when I'm creating something. All of these pieces I've sold, but as soon as I have some pieces to spare they're going to be going up on Etsy! I've been pretty successful so far, and it's really fun to come up with my own designs. Here's what I've been up to lately!

Here are some gold chain maille earrings. Pretty simple



These are some filagree lilies. They were the first thing I made. I liked the contrast between the copper and the green




Here's a gold chain maille ring I made. I was pretty proud of it. There's a closeup too. :)




These are my peacock bead stud earrings



These are shooting star earrings, made with swarovski crystals. I was particularly proud of these. :)




This is my current masterpiece. Took me between 3-4 hours to make but it was worth it. I'm so proud of it. It's a bracelet and for those of you who are skeptics: Yes, I made the chain by hand.




Anyway, soon I'll be able to put some stuff on Etsy. For now though, I'm just selling to friends and coworkers, mainly because they all keep claiming stuff before I have a chance to list it! It's a great feeling though. :)
