I learned something new

Filed under: Crochet and Crafts — dawn @ 12:02 am

see you can teach…oh, nevermind.

Anywho, I made yet another necklace, and earings. This time however I tried something I had not tried before. I wanted to make something interesting. I used straight jewelry wire and bent it to what I wanted. It took alot of testing to get just the right thing…

…but I did manage it. It is an interesting piece and now that I have tried this, I will try a few more ideas that have been rattling around in the dust in my brain. Here is the necklace as well, though it is much along the same lines, as the other things I have made.

UPDATE

When I work on something and it just isnt quite right, I find myself going back and making it “better”…so, here is the better version of the above necklace

These are very nice. I tried out jewelry making at the beginning of this month and had a lot of fun with it. Cheers.

I love it, most of my crafts take days…weeks or longer to finish. The jewelry usually takes me an hour or two to make a nice looking piece.

These are very beautiful! I agree the necklace is stunning.

Thanks so much for visiting!

thank you, I wanted the necklace to match the earings though, so I have added the flower to the front of the necklace as well

These are lovely. My husband went to jewelry class yesterday (we’re on vacation) and made me a necklace.

Oh, that was nice of him.

Thank you for stopping by
