Blooms and Love Birds - Brass Filigree Wrapped Hand Painted Porcelain Floral Necklace

♥Blooms and Love Birds♥

This is a beautiful wrapped porcelain necklace with repousse clasp. The hand painted porcelain piece was once part of a magnificent watch (nonworking). It is slightly convex and unique. At this time, I have a listing for a pair of lever back earrings for pierced ears that coordinate with this necklace. This brass is nickel and lead free.

On a personal note.....The high school attendance called today and wanted to know why Landon wasn't at school today as he was marked absent. I informed them that he was there and would they please check and give me a call back. Yep! Got a call back as he was there. This happened once before when he was in middle school. Landon is dropped off at school every morning. He really is a great guy!

On a personal note.....had a birthday last week so I did take a few days off. The boys made me a chocolate lover's cake.......it was oh-my-gosh good! One of my gifts was a box of Anthony Thomas Mint Meltaways. I am pretty much half way through the box!

Purple Intrigue Filigree Brass Wrapped Czech Iridescent Purple Button Glass Earrings

Do you ever have a favorite to work with? Well one of mine is Czech Button Glass. So many colors and patterns to choose from. Here is a pair of earrings that I worked on over the weekend......

♥Purple Intrigue♥

Beautiful Czech Iridescent Button Glass - They display different colors depending on the light/angle! The color is called Volcano.

White Wedding - Brass Filigree Art Nouveau Necklace, Earrings - White Opal Glass

♥White Wedding♥

My heart really did guide me on this task! This white opal glass is displaying a subtle, inner glow that I can see depending on the light/angle. I think that you will love the beautiful contrast between the ornate, highly polished brass and the white opal glass. This necklace is also beaded all of the way to the repousse clasp. And of course the brass is nickel and lead free.

I have designed earrings for pierced ears to go with this necklace. I had the most incredibly happy feelings while designing this set!

What am I Making Now?

This is really beautiful Czech button glass. The colors are incredible! I see blue, purple and green colors. Blue and purple just happen to be my most favorite colors!

The stones in these earrings are wrapped in filigree brass that I have hand oxidized and then meticulously polished. I use RENAISSANCE Microcrystalline WAX POLISH (except for the ear wires) to help protect the finish. They are nickel and lead free.

♥Expression♥

This is so very colorful and romantic. It is vintage style necklace that measures approximately 17" around. I just love it! The flower connectors look the same on the back as they do on the front. This brass is nickel and lead free.

On a personal note. We had a light dusting a snow again last night. The temp was in the single digits again! We will be warming up after Thursday. I saw that the high is predicted to be in in the 50's later in the week with possible rain showers! That's Ohio for you!

Blue Art Glass Butterfly Earrings

On a personal note, we are expecting an ice storm tonight/tomorrow. My son had to take his car in for repair so I will have to go and pick him up tomorrow afternoon from work. I can only hope and pray that the ice storm misses us!

Valentines's Day Necklace

I don't usually like to work and list on Sunday, but I was so excited about this necklace.......


♥Fair Is The Rose♥

The focal on this beautiful necklace is a glass, reverse painted intaglio stone. This gorgeous stone was taken from a necklace in one of my jewelry estate lots. I really had Valentine's Day thoughts on my mind!

This necklace was finished with a repousse clasp and the brass is nickel and lead free.

New Earrings - Lots of Color!

Well it is freezing and snowing outside. Our schools let out one hour early today. We are expecting more snow and extreeeeeeeeeeme cold for the next couple of days. I really have to start searching for a pair of fingerless gloves!

This is what I listed today on Etsy. They are so beautiful and colorful.....really needed to see these glorious colors today!

I first photographed these using indoor studio lighting. I did not like how the colors came out. I redid the pics by the patio window using the natural light coming in. I then took the pictures into Picassa for just a bit of editing for color matching.


♥Medley♥
A beautiful pair of lever back earrings. They have Swarovski crystal glass rhinestones with a light Aurora Borealis finish on the back and are creating some very incredible color! Photographed at different angles to display this amazing palette of colors! They are brass and nickle and lead free.
