Necklaces for the Fall

Fall is coming (jewelry designers start putting together pieces in mid-summer) and I am now inspired by more bronzy type metal elements, asian and african motifs, wood, stone & heavy-looking glass with my signature pendants. The glass is not heavy when you wear it in a design as I don't like my clients having to wear designs that are too heavy. Long necklaces and chains are still in and will be for the upcoming holidays.

Hand-wired necklace

I am working on a hand-wired necklace which can take all day. Sometimes it is better to keep working on the design so you don't lose momentum.  The necklace incorporate elements from the sea and ruin glass.

Jewelry Tags

I was trying to find a website that would give me a idea on how to create new and sophisticated jewelry tags for my design pieces. I ended up using card stock paper with embossed designs and using my website logo and attaching with raffia.
