Totally forgot about doing this for Scarlett's class....

Last week in my daughter's class I taught a lesson on how pearls are formed, and had the children make a three pearl necklace. The children had different colors and shapes of pearls to choose from, they strung the three pearls onto a piece of wire, I made the loop at the top and they picked out the color silk cord for the pendant. We had a lot of fun!

This bracelet happened by chance. I had cast many leaf sections for a very large necklace and realized that I had extras left over. I laid out the leaves with the largest ones in the center and then the smaller ones on either side so the bracelet is…

Another view of Web brooch

01/15/2013

I decided I wanted to design something based on a spider’s web. I sketched may designs for a brooch and decided on this idea of having a stone cut so it mimics the shape of the web. I had a large golden rutilated quartz and decided to have it re -cut to…
