A new wire wrapped stone

I really like how this tree turned out!
The larger tree on the left clearly shows the tree. The inset image compares the size to a quarter.

3 Memory Wire Bracelets

Whipped up a few bracelets this past week.

 

The blue and purple one is all glass beads. The middle one is a double stranded shell bracelet. The white one has small plastic 'pearl' beads.

Happy Birthday Sister Dear

My older sister asked me to make a matching bracelet and necklace for a pair of earrings that she picked out from my stash.
Here are the earrings:

Here is a picture of the necklace:

And the bracelet, with a closer view of the middle of the necklace:

The necklace has a magnetic clasp, so if either of her two little ones yank on it, it'll pop right off, no big deal.  The bracelet is memory wire, so again, if either of the tykes tug on it, it'll just uncoil and slip off her wrist. Also, the bracelet has no things hanging off that could get caught on the kids or clothes. And no sharp points on the danglies on the necklace.  These will be about a month late, but I was waiting for an idea for the necklace to come to me. And... I think they turned out great :)

For those of you that are local, I will be posting some of my stuff for sale this weekend at The Gem, Rock & Bead store in Providence, next to Casper's Ice Cream and Stadium 8. 

Hemp Necklace

In May of this year I was dragged across the country by a friend, who spent the summer living in South Carolina. While on that trip I visited a smoke shop and came across the coolest pendant for The Boy (my boyfriend). I finally got around to making a hemp necklace using the pendant.

Let me know what you think...

Earrings

I also went wild with the earrings I've been making. In June of this year I got a clearance bag of beads at Black Market Minerals in Charleston, SC. Best purchase of my life. I totally scored, and all the stuff I made in this post was from beads out of that bag (minus the swarovski crystals, those I got off of ebay ;)  )

Let me know what you think! (in the comments or via email at handmadedanglies@gmail.com)

Everything all together

Some single shots of other stuff...

Light purple flower, with purple swarovski crystal accents

 Small brown squares with clear glass beads in the middle

(from clasp to clasp it measures just over 7 and 1/2 inches)

Light blue hearts, wrapped with silver wire, with white swarovski crystals

Tree of Life Pendants

Lately, I've been on a kick and cranking out some really cool Tree of Life Pendants.  I also googled 'Tree of Life Pendant' and about died at the results I got. There are so many different styles out there, that it blew my mind a little bit. I got started, and using this as a model:

(Her Etsy page can be found here, and please, check it out, her stuff is amazing!)

I created my own version, that turned out like this:

I'm thinking that I'm going to need to go out and find some really pretty stones, and do more of these! Here's a link to a page with some really really cool pendants that I'm currently in love with. (The prices kind of gave me a heart-attack, but also gave me an idea of what I could potentially charge)

And some of the other Pendants that I did in the past couple of weeks:
