I am continuing with the tiny theme at the moment.
The top piece is the smallest piece of wirework I have ever done, and I have included a penny to show the size. This was meant to be one of a pair of earrings, but I like it better as a pendant. | At the top, the Layered Leaf pendant is only slightly bigger as shown in the next picture. I used the other wrapped quartz for a pendant just for me. | Showing the size of the Raindrop charm and the Layered Leaf pendant. All the other pieces use elements and design from Nicole Hanna tutorials. This piece is inspired by her style, but all my own design. |
I have entered a Year of Jewellery project 2014, which involves making a different piece of jewellery every week, to a set theme. We are on week two currently, and below are my submissions so far.
The week one theme was 'Something new for me', so I started with a tiny pendant. simple and easy to make with Labradorite and silver filled wire, this is so different from my usual large and intricate designs. | The week two theme is 'Its Golden', I have tried another new technique, making a chain maille bezel for this gorgeous labradorite (which has lots of golden schiller) using gold and silver plated jump rings, and mounted onto a gold plated chain. |
So, I will update with my Year of Jewellery pictures for each week. For now, I am back off to my desk to play with more wire.
