2014 Pearls !!! Blog Hop Reveal Time

I know I have been quite for 2 weeks. Life gets busy and still trying to fill in my promise, my own programm ;-)  Not easy, huh?
But hey, I don't give up. I pushed myself and join this Blog Hop. Hostess by Shel from MiShel Designs. Special blog hop for Pearls Lovers !!! Who doesn't love Pearl? noone... ;-)

Here is what I make to shown up :

An exquisite looking necklace with rice shape freswater pearls. I bought the pearls form Indonesia. They are so beautiful with lovely lush. Each measures about 8mm big. In the middle is blue pendant Swarovski Sapphire. I love the mix and feel bit majestic as I worn this necklace.  More if you like to own it, just go here to buy this gorgeous Necklace.

The second creation is a pendant. Shine on pretty with flower texture in front and leaves texture in the back. Again 1 big luminosity freshwater pearl hangs under it.

This is the back side. The idea is to wear it in 2 different ways. 

I made pair earring to complete my creation.

I hope my crafty days are not bad at all. Hope you like them as much as I love them :-)

New Push Me Programm

I keep thinking (and dreaming) to be better. Jewelry world, jewelry maker, jewelry dream !
Got to be productive, got to make time, got to push myself !

So starting today, I WILL (again WILL) make one piece per week. It can be a ring, a necklace, simple pendant, or a broken piece. Basically creative and productive.

This programm called New Push Me. Shortly NPM. Hehehehehe I know it sounds funny ;-)

This is my premiere piece. A ring made from ArtClay Silver. Inspired from sea, the inner side of the ring reminds me to seaweeds. For outer side, you'll find such small scallops texture. Very cute.

On the top I made a silver disc with same texture and put pretty pearl. 

My sea ring is ready. Ah .. I didn't forget to oxidize it to show the texture and color contrast better.
Available at my Shop

Wish me luck that I stay discipline. Wish me luck that my jewelry dream comes true :-)

Keepsake Jewelry

I'm kind of on a roll with the fingerprint themed projects right now. Probably because I living far from my parents, and miss them sooo much? Or because my kids are growing and seemed like they don't need me? Ah what a suck life... I'm getting old. Truth be told, I have more fun with 'adult' kids. They are kind, helpful with household, indenpendent. I love them so much !

Eventhough I still thinking about the past, when they were little and completely dependent on me. And I wonder what will be become of me when they move out and no longer need me. I miss the cute kids who used to place me at the center of their world.
This mind pushed me to try fingerprint jewelry. Something to remember, close to my soul and be a never ending memory.

Above is my oldest daughter's fingerprint. She is 19 now and starts her trainee as design draftsman soon. I'm proud of her and happy that she doesn't want to moving out yet. Thanks God !!!

I just adore these pendants. So simple and sweet. Yes, I'm having great time work with fingerprint. Such a feeling --- I have been a very good mama ---- LOL Whatever the reason, I Love my Work !!!!

You see some examples I did.

If you need something to hang on with the sweetest memory of your kids, family or your loved one... just go to my shop here . I can make other size, model or if you want to have your own design,  don't hestitate to contact me. I'll be happy to make a very unique and special fingerprint for you, as special as your loved one.

Have a great day and enjoy your time surrounding with people you love !

Pendant Project 1

My promise to make 'how-to' Art Clay piece. This step-by-step pictures are not detail and clean, sorry. Next time I'll search 'more' hands and do my best to give you better information.
For this project I use Art Clay Silver Low Fire.

Make sure your hands and all the tools have somekind of cooking oil or olive oil to prevent sticking. Roll down your clay 2 cards thick. Here I use 2 plastic rulers as cards. 

Apply texture you like and use kraft knife to make small rectangle. 

A spacer as my texture. I pushed a cubic zirconia in the middle, not sure if my clay is high enough to capture the stone. We will find out as I fire it :o)  Actually, I need to syring on the small dollop of clay and push the stone in. So, finger crossed that my nice zirconia not jumping out..

 There are many methods of making holes in your clay. Punch the hole with simple drinking straw, a pin tool, or a hand drill. Wet clay is easier to work, as you see my pendant. And don't forget the shrinkage fired clay, so make the hole slighty larger.

Time to let it dry. Hair dryer needs 10-20 mins, natural dry needs 24 hours at room temperature. See you tomorrow... with sanding and firing the clay.

YOJ11 Week 6 - Leaf (Blatt)

Learn how to handle Art Clay Silver. Gorgeous silver I can make in a day. Etc etc etc... that are my sweet dream about ACS. And now... I made my first pendant!!!!!

It has a name. Far From Perfect, But I'm Proud Of It. Long name but gives you one shot about how I feel. As you see, there are many cracks, the alongside are not similar, the hole for jump ring is too small. It is really really bad quality silver leaf ;-)  It is good so, that I learned how to put the lump clay into mold, how to avoid any crack, need more time at refine dry clay. In the next making time, I'll try to catch the process in my camera, so I can show you how fun it is. Only has to wait til my next package comes over the sea *-*

But hey... look at this necklace! My attempt for turning out the poor Leaf to a Pretty Leaf On the Flower. All the way, it is my first piece and I would love to use it :o)  A friend gave a suggestion to change the crossed wire in front to a nice curly wire on the edges. Sounds good.... thanks. I'll give a go.

Oh almost forget, the theme this week is Amore. I guess I felt in love with art clay silver... or? Let time tells.
