A Few New Things

I've been busy creating new designs for summer and I'd like to share them with you!  Today is also the last day of my sale!  Use code SUMMER when checking out at my Etsy shop to get 15% off!

Monarch Scrabble Necklace

I adore butterflies, and honestly I'm surprised I haven't made a butterfly themed scrabble necklace sooner!  The Monarch Scrabble Necklace features a hand painted up close view of the regal butterfly's wing pattern on the back of a vintage genuine scrabble game tile.  It hangs on a little copper plated heart bail on a waxed cotton cord.

Gypsy Feather Necklace

I adore bohemian style jewelry so it's no real surprise that I love to create it as well!  My recently listed Gypsy Feather Necklace is a lovely multi-strand necklace made with a myriad of charms including feathers, sparkling Czech glass, hearts, keys and locks among others.  The two feather charms have a hand applied patina finish for a pretty turquoise pop of color!

Gypsy Feather Earrings

The matching Gypsy Feather Earrings feature the same hand applied patina finish small feathers as the necklace has.  Along with the pretty feather charms, lengths of brass and copper chain dangle behind the charms for a cascading look under the swirly connector.

Gypsy Hoop Earrings

Keeping with the bohemian theme, my Gypsy Hoop Earrings are made from solid hammered copper wire and sparkling Czech glass beads in olive and smokey brown.  Swirly links are attached with wire in the centers for an added delicate touch.

Abstract Hummingbird Necklace

Hummingbirds are one of my favorite garden visitors and I love watching them buzz from bloom to bloom.  I captured their image in my Abstract Hummingbird Necklace made from solid brass wire hanging on a textured brass plated chain.  I carefully designed him to be delicate looking and tiny as well.  From wing to tail, the bird is just under an inch long.

Teal and Tangerine Bar Necklace

I'm loving the look of orange and teal which is very popular lately so I had to make my own design featuring these luscious colors as well!  Bar necklaces are great everyday jewelry and they make up some of my favorite simple pieces in my own jewelry box.  I created this Teal and Tangerine Bar Necklace one with fire-polished Czech glass beads which sparkle in the sunlight!

Chubby Owl Necklace

Lastly, I created this Chubby Owl Necklace with a fun and playful design perfect for summer!  I couldn't wait to get these adorable brass chubby owl charms and he looks so sweet paired with bright blue turquoise magnesite bead and a cherry red Czech glass flower!

I hope everyone is enjoying their summer so far and stay tuned for more designs coming up soon!

    1. Thank you! Brass is a bit of a tougher wire and I certainly had sore fingers after!
