A Bit of Wire Wrapping Re Enters My life

Recently I enjoyed making a few pieces of jewelry again. I had all but gotten rid of my beads and wire thinking that maybe I would never do this sort of work again. But, I am pleased that the urge to play with wire came at me again and I grabbed on and got busy. As is usually my habit I made the first pair from copper. I love the look of the copper especially with the peridot beads and the rosy headpins fromHigher ChakraSupply. For the silver ones I chose sodalite beads for the accents along with some 2mm silver beads and plain headpins. I like them. I'll wear them. My kids will wear them. It's all good!

Sweet Lady of the Night

I love love love Van Morrison and so this line from one of his songs came to mind when naming this piece. Creating these goddess pendants is becoming a passion for me, and I love to wrap them and then find tiny beads that become their hair. The faces are made by Clay Jeani. This piece is wrapped in sterling silver with sterling silver beads and garnet accents.

Much appreciation to Eni Oken for her tutorial on how to do the net wrapping, and to Szarka aka Turquoise Magpie who sells the Clay Jeani focals.
