New items in Etsy Shop


I have been busy the past week or so and I have added a bunch of new designs to the etsy shop.

Two new designs in the Tutu line and two new pairs of tribal hoops like the ones pictured above.
A new pendant and earrings that are a new feather design and there are more to come!
I have pictures to take of a new pair of mod earrings in sterling and blue patina copper.
I have had a burst of creativity lately, and have a couple of big orders to get out. It seems I am always more creative when I am busy.

Busy makes me a bit nervous too. I always stress that I won't meet my deadlines. This week I am making a new necklace for my daughter to wear to prom. We designed it together and it's something new so I always sweat about if it will turn out, and if I can get it the way I see it in my head. She has a fabulous dress and she will look like a movie star.

My youngest and I both are a bit under the weather so it makes getting things done more difficult. I would rather be nursing my flu in bed, but I have things to do! I really am working in my pajamas though this week and maybe taking a nap or two along the way.
My head feels like it weighs about 50 lbs, and I didn't know so much snot could come out of a person. Eww. Prom's on Friday so I have to stop writing and get back to work. Maybe I'll go get some juice first and maybe a little nap.......

Anatomy of a Tapered Bezel

Image
I use mostly bezel settings in my work. I make my rings so that the bezel is flush with the band and does not sit atop of it for a more integrated look. Having the bezel setting taper allows for a bigger stone to be set while still allowing the bands to sit closer together for stacking rings. Being mostly self taught, I looked to the google first to see if I could find a tutorial on how to make these types of bezels. There were none to be found. I did find a rather heavy bezel block that is used to make these tapered bezels and bought it, but alas, it did not come with instructions. After many failed attempts to make a cylinder turn into a cone, I figured I must be doing something horribly wrong. Wouldn't you know it, there was math involved, much to my dismay. I am going to show you the process I have come to for making this little tapered bezel step by step. Except for the math part ( you will need that to make your template), it is simple. I did come across this nifty cone ca

Mother's Day Gift Guide 8 Things Mom would Really Love Mother's Day is fast approaching. If you are the kid that runs into CVS before brunch every year for a card and a bunch of flowers that are less than fresh, let me help you out with a few ideas that she will really love. Most are affordable and some can even be done last minute.  1. Your Time:  Schedule a special day for you and her to spend some time together. It could be mani/pedis at the spa. A trip to her favorite museum or art event. Even a class that you can do together. "Plant nights" are a cute thing that are popping up across the country where you spend the evening making a terrarium to take home. If plants aren't her thing how about a night of wine and painting? Those things are everywhere.    2. Plants  Not the dying ones for the grocery store or the pharmacy chain. Have one of these super adorable kits shipped to her - we don't all live close enough to do plant night togeth

Pinterest is always a good place to look to see what people are loving at the moment. Its ultra current and its fun to look at.  Trend #1 Succulents. Oh my these beauties have taken over.

Vintage antiques create a sweet backdrop for
