Beading Time?

The days never have enough time for me to devote to my favorite hobby beading.  Especially when you work a full-time job too.  Perhaps that’s why you’ll find me up at 3 or 4 am just to get more time in for my favorite hobby.  My husband tells me I’m obsessed with beads, well I say, I must be possessed by the spirit of beads, because I love it so much.

Our anniversity is this Thursday the 12th, he asked me what I wanted for my anniversary gift.  When most women would say, a new necklace (I can make that), a diamond bracelet (I can make that too), clothes, dinner out, etc. No, not me,  I asked for a jewelry tumbler.  I’ve wanted one for a long time and have just not been able to purchase it yet.  I was so excited and couldn’t wait to use it.  What fun, now I don’t have to hand polish my wirework, and hand polishing just doesn’t give it that sheen a tumbler does. 

Check out some of my wirework below, some pieces are older ones and some are my newer designs.

I hand make everything when I work with wire, the jump rings, ear-wires and clasps.  I will be adding tutorial on how to do this to my website and blog soon.  Check back often to check them out.

Love those Pearls!

Here’s another lariat necklace I created using pearls, only this time I used baby blue crystals, white pearls, purple pearls and sterling silver.

Oh no….there’s something missing! Oh yes, matching earrings and bracelet, its off to the bead room I go!

A Copper Fling….

It’s so rare that I create with anything other than Sterling wire, but Copper has caught my attention lately and I’ve found using it with white pearls adds a certain flare I really like. Let me know what you think.
