Carnelian Ring


Nikki very kindly gave me a demonstration of how to take pics, and she took this pic of a carnelian ring that I made a while ago, not bad, hey. Hope that I have learnt something from her, and that my next pics are just as good?

Purple Swarovski Ring




I almost forgot to post this, this is a purple swarovski crystal, and I used a big stone for 2 reasons, one being that it is fashionable at the moment to have large stones in rings, and the second reason being that obviously bigger is easier, haaahhaaaa, wrong, this was much harder than the first one I did on course, which was about a quarter of the size. But eventually I got this right and am glad I persevered, because it has turned out well.
Hope you think so too!!! Now to attempt a large oval? We'll see.

3 Ring Earrings


I loved making these earrings, and I love wearing them!!!!

Decided to try out my cutting skills on this celtic design, and was very pleased with the result.


Pastel Watch

Made this watch for fun, I think I might make a couple for Xmas.

Chain Earrings


Love these earrings, they are a bit heavier than I thought they would be, but I was still able to wear them for a day and my ears were fine.

Carnelian Filigree Pendant


Then I tried filigree, this pendant came out fine, although have learnt lots, and would change a couple of things, and it is not very centred, but good for a first attempt.
