Mixed Metal Cross
This is a heavy mixed metal cross made from Sterling Silver with a large Copper Sphere.
Yes, it is a little crooked, it is hard to work with these heavier pieces when soldering… but I think I've found a solution for the next time I try (I've got something new on order to try to resolve)… it still looks very nice on, and I'm trying to decided if I keep this for myself (as a prototype) or if I'm going to sell it… In either case I expect to be doing more crosses in the future…
More to Love...
A couple new Playful Heart pieces, modeled after one of my early student pieces, each with a torch-fired enamel heart mixed in with sterling silver hearts cascading down….
Both are for sale as part of my Playful Hearts collection, found here…

Sweet Young Things...
I've created a new line I call "Sweet Young Things", they are much more simple in design & have shorter chains (13/15" adjustable), created with a youthful fashionista in mind… since they're so much simpler (both in form & in construction) I have been able to keep the price down on these as well.
For Sale Here...

Memories of my brother as a kid...

A Sweet Little mixed-metal Set...
This is the newest item in a grouping I call "Simply Sweet", and currently the only one of that bunch (at the time of this posting) that is for sale… the others all have homes already…
I decided with this little set to mix in copper along with my usual Sterling Silver, I think the Copper compliments the Red Creek Jasper stones…
For this set I treated the copper metal portions so that they will resist oxidation, on necklaces this is particularly important since they rub against the skin and/or clothing.
This little sweetheart can be purchased here…

A Happy Accident...
Sometimes I try things just to see what will happen… I was doing that the other day… and what I wanted to happen didn't, but what did happen ended up better than what I was trying to do… so lets just call these a Happy Accident…
I was playing around with Clear enamel, and wasn't happy with the results, so I tried adding a little green enamel on the top, and ended up with these little lovelies… the picture doesn't do them justice, but I like the effect with a little of the copper showing through in speckles…
Yes, they are for sale, find more info here...
