All The Shiny Things

This ornament went out as a Pay It Forward surprise early this morning. It has a peachblow dyed agate in the center, Czech crystals, seed beads in 11/0 and 15/0, nylon netting, and bugle beads. Backed in ultrasuede.

Egyptian Zodiac bead embroidery WIP

In progress photos of a bead embroidery project I'm currently working on. Czech glass button in mirror back purple/ pink/ orange finish, Swarovski crystals and pearls, glass seed beads, bugle beads, and amethyst chunks. It took a LONG time because I had to do every part at least three times. It's at a stopping point until I get some beads to make a necklace strong enough to hold it. I will have to re-paint the face when it's all finished since the paint wore off over the course of my work.

Pretty in Pink

I started this a few days ago and set it aside to work on some other projects. Anyway, I varnished it last night and just finished listing it on Etsy.

At the moment, I have two WIP pieces sitting on my desk. One is my space nebula concept and the other is a mokume gane piece with silver leaf inlay that refuses to have a backing put on. Don't know when those will be done, but hopefully I will have something to show in the next few days.

Thanks for stopping by :)
