Handmade Wire Jewelry Bracelet : Something Old something new

HI there!

Something old something new!
something old would be me...for i turned another year older...and something new is something i made for myself for my birthday today!

 Its rare for me to twist sterling silver wires but now that i see the result...i think this aint gonna be the last one!

i absolutely love the result and you will be seeing more of this in the future.

 Sterling Silver Jewelry makes  a good keepsake or gifts that you can pass on to generations because its considered a precious metal. The value appreciates.

If it tarnishes, you can buff it up again and give it a good polish...but on the other hand...tarnish just give a more natural vintage effect.

For the piece i made for myself, i oxidized it for the dark sombre effect.

and if you prefer without the oxidized look, 

material: Sterling silver 925 (wires and faceted ball beads, hook and eye, jump rings)

Handmade Wire Jewelry Brooch : Jade Donut

Handmade Wire Jewelry Pendant : Metamorphosis of the DRAGONFLY

This Dragonfly born orginally as a pendant and brooch. 

The person intended for this piece, wanted it bigger. 

There are other ways to make it bigger with  bigger wire wings etc BUT just for this one i decided to let the dragonfly land on something instead. 

It is now not suitable as a brooch (the stones added some extra weight)  but i suppose it can be worn as a pendant.

Anyhow, i just love looking at this and decided to share this with you and this baby is now happily residing on my table for my own viewing pleasure :)

this i can make again if you are interested in this piece.

this can be yours:)

materials: swarovski crystals, natural turquoise AA grade, aventurine stones, silver plated copper Artistic Wire.

Price: RM310

inclusive of delivery shipping and handling

Quiet but not idle

First and foremost praises to God Al-mighty, Allah swt.

I thank You for all the blessings that You have showered upon me.

Hi everyone!

I have been pretty quiet this past week but I can assure you i have not been idle at all. 

I have taken the time  to re-check back my blog for listings i have not updated and if you are an online seller, you would understand the time needed to do this.

Even though i still have some pending orders, i have decided to put that on hold a tad bit, with permission of course (notable thank you to Joanna! Yvonne and sandra).

So what have i been up to?

It started with a message i received weeks back by a stranger...and again recently by a dear friend who wanted to get christmas gifts but i was not able to fulfill the requests to see some of my stock coz either its already sold OR i have decided to keep them for myself and already worn them.... hehehe

Therefore i have been busy making little bit of this and that and hope to build a new and bigger collection soon. 

I have another 8 pieces that i havent posted yet, but i can only do so once its approved or not sometime in january.
Meanwhile, i shall be posting some of the pieces i have already made and available.

till then....

Torch n Tumble

Today i declared and "off" day for me. I spent the whole day with torch and tumble, my new BFF!

I manage to solder ALL with no mistakes! I have to admit, i was pretty nervous at first knowing my history of failed "torching" aka soldering. I tried out something new today and am pretty satisfied with the result. Perhaps may not meet my instructor's standards but knowing how terrible i am at this...i would say i did a pretty good job today! :))

I skip one process for the two pair of earrings i made...so i dont know whether that is ok. will have to get back to my instructor on that :)

will post result pics soon.

I really have  three other  tutorials that i made earlier but this one gets top priority.

Since time is of the essence, i did this design in pendant style and i will suggest ways for you to make it into earrings and bracelets too. i will try to get this done asap. 

Target sale date for this tutorial is december 15th or earlier :)

till then...happy crafting!

Young Victoria Handcrafted Earrings - Personal Collection

I saw this movie and loved the earrings worn by emily blunt in the movie "YOUNG VICTORIA".

I love historical movies and always find the jewelries of the european 18th century beautiful and fascinating. Simple, elegant and dainty.
