Armband ohne Verschluss

Nicht nur als persönlicher Arm-Schmuck, sondern auch weil man sein besonderes Modell mit Fingerabdruck gerne stets im Auge behalten möchte, sollte an diese Arm-Schmuck ein stylisches und praktisches Band haben.

Die Armbänder unten sind mit Fingerabdruck als Mittelpunkt. Erhältlich in schwarz, braun, grün military.

 Über die Herzform kannst du Hier mehr erfahren.

Und für die Viereck Variante schaut einfach bei shop

Außerdem habe ich ein Armband mit Handschrift gemacht. Die Handschrift hat mein Mann auf eine 'Gute Reise' Karte geschrieben, als ich allein nach Indonesien geflogen bin. Es hat seinen Zweck richtig erfüllt. Ich fühlte mich nicht einsam und das Beste ist: bei jede Kontrolle im Flughafen, ging es schnell mit abmachen !!! Weil das Armband ELASTISCH ist, bedeutet dies keinen Stress mit Verschlüssen, einfach abziehen :-)

Also, wer hat noch nicht Ideen für Weihnachten.... ;-)
Ich habe mehrere Schmuckstücke in dawanda . Freue mich auf eure Bestellung !!!

REVEAL TIME ** 8th Bead Soup Blog Party **

Helooooooo ;-)  Today is the big day for many many jewelry makers and jewelry lovers from the whole world !!!!

Hosted by Lori Anderson, she is truly amazing artist. I can't have enough words to say how I adore her! If you don't know Bead Blog Soup Party, quickly it is exchange of beads from two partners. Any beads are allowed but MUST have a clasp and a focal. Then make pretty jewelry from those beads, can put her/his own things in design. And today is the big showing day for everybody who signed up. So I'll be busy to hop on each blog and got crazy of each beautiful pieces of everyone ;-))))

The bad news, my laptop died yesterday, so I need time to save some pictures. Means I can't show you the picture of beads from my partner. Just scroll down to my previous post, I put them there.

My partner this year is a sweet lady from Hildesheim, Germany. Anja sent me beautiful beads, in the color of spring. Green like leaves and red like flowers. Some silver things to cheers the day are inclusive. And pretty focal too. This is spring necklace. Do you feel cheerful and happy with those colors? Me, yes !
My own finding for her cabochon. The chain starts with small glass green beads, patina butterflies, bigger glass green beads. And I remind you that I want to have spring on my neck, so red flowers are a must. First let the butterflies hang, then those glossy red beads give beautiful touch. Look at that silver roses !!! Such pretty.

Next project is bracelets. Not only 1 but 3 bracelets! I make them as stack bracelets. 

The Leaves Green Bracelet uses only beads from Anja. They are soooo pretty and glossy. I LOVE them.

These Roses Red Bracelet has small butterfly in silver. Tiny cute, why don't take them to 'dance' with red beads. Shiny and glittering bracelet. I put small similar red swarovski beads on it.

The last Carnival Bracelet. Colorful swarovski beads to combine with red pretty wood bead from Anja. Perfect!!!!

Here they are. My Spring Jewelry for 8th Bead Soup Blog Party. 

Thank you Anja... thank you Lori. And thank to all of you, jewelry friends for your supports. Long live jewelry makers world.... long live blogger .... I LOVE YOU !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Viking Knit

Finally I made viking knit. This age old technique of weaving wire took my attention too much, as I saw my friends made it. So FABULOUS pieces....
Bought tutorial from JanRaven here www.jewelrylessons.com/tutorial/viking-knitting and started the long night, played with viking knit.

In the beginning I had to digging in my man's working room. Searched for vice. It is important tool for holding the wire as our hand are busy with knitting. Find out that it is useful too for taking care our not-yet-ready knit, if we leave it for short or long time. Some bead-store has this tool too. Mine is from hardware store.
Next is search for mandrel. Use Allen wrench...very cheap and good!
So I set up my table. Clamped the vice on table and was ready with work... ;-)


2 hours later...This is what I made. 10' wire became 2,5'' chain!!!!! Not very happy about it, but hey...I made viking knit and this is my first attempt. Let's celebrate it.... lol.


I made Viking-Fischy Bracelet... after 4 hours hooked and felt slowly sleepy :o)
Enjoy my Viking Knit journey.... thanks for coming!!

Some new *Creature* ;-)

Wow.... Mask!!!! Yup this is for a challenge between FB friends. We gave fotos as inspiration, I got a Venedig Mask photo...and this is what I made. I love this!! hahahaha proud of myself.


I made this pendant to see if I can make such rich and glamour bollwood style. I made it! yes I'm happy, but I guess it takes a while 'til I got order for it. :-( U know...much work means expensive. That's the reason...


Seashell Bracelet......... to match with the ring. Both are on the way to my friend now. Hope you enjoy them... Thanks dear friend!

Seashell Ring.... fun time to make and I already make 5 other rings! Made for match to the bracelet.

Flower in my garden

This is my second piece this month. Actually 'January Birthstone Garnet or Rose Quartz' is our theme, but neither Garnet nor Rose Quarz in my treasure. Have to think how I make my piece then. So took some colours of chrystal beads and played with them. Snowing outside, miss summer. It is my idea: FLOWER!
Bracelet made with red chrystal beads and copper wire. I tried 18ga wire as the frame and it's too wobbly. Need more strong wire, perhaps 16 ga?

Earrings parade.... red, green, yellow. Which one is the most beautiful?

Red Earrings. Simple and attractive. Even my neighbour order 2 pairs in blue and green. Yuhuuuuu.....

Here they are...1 set Flower Jewelry with Egyptian Coil and Briolette Flower (Eni's Tut), consist of Bracelet, Ring, Earrings.

Purple Swirly

Beginning January 2010. Snowy and cold... nice white outside. This is the 1st time I'm inside Year Of Jewelry 2010 challenges. So in a fever of excitement, let's say. But the show must go on...here I'm!
Purple Swirly isn't complicated. This is a fun and easy project, has tons of possibilities for customization. Yup...it is Egyptian Coil! This technic is something what I like this moment. Simple chain that requires very few tools.
I made this bracelet and earrings last week. I use 20ga Beadsmith silver plated and Glass beads...in purple :-) Get applaus from my hubby...hahahahaha He is my best fans, beside my children LOL.
Sorry for not good picture. I'll try to have better shot next time. Promise!
