Modeling Miss Bubbles...

Sometimes you just can't get the sense of scale, or how to wear a piece of jewelry… a couple days ago I was thinking about this & how photos just don't communicate my jewelry well…  I was casual (wearing some comfy clothes I like for in the studio) but decided Miss Bubbles went with my outfit… so…

Yep, that's me… modeling the necklace & earring set I call "Miss Bubbles"… I'd normally wear her with a nicer outfit, but casual works as well… She & a few of her friends are available for purchase & can be seen here.

One more in the Flores Encantadoras collection before I move on to other things, this one is "Wisps of Spring"…

Wisps of Spring - Sterling Silver and Amazonite

This lovely bloom is made from Sterling Silver, with an Amazonite stone bead.  I used Filigree, so this piece was a bit labor intensive, some simple filigree earrings were made to agree with the main bloom.  Whoops!! my picture has a twist in the chain (oops), but that happens to all of us from time to time.

It took a while for me to name this one, for some reason it gave me trouble… all along I thought of it as "Wispy", but the stone of the bead is so unusual that I had trouble finishing the name.  Ok, so about the color of the stone: its a very green aqua color with whitish markings, Amazonite is quite a unique looking stone.

Bella Blue, another lovely bloom...

Here's another of my Flores Encantadoras, this one I'm calling "Bella Blue…

"Bella Blue" - Sterling Silver & dyed Magnesite

This lovely bloom is made from Sterling Silver and has a dyed Magnesite stone bead.  This piece involved a significant amount of labor due to the filigree work.  Paired with some simple earrings that nod to the filigree work in the pendant.
