Baubles

As promised, here a few pictures of the jewelry I've been making:









I'm having a great time creating with wire and beads and I'm really trying to get my pieces to reflect the beauty found in nature. Most of my materials have been "found objects" (i.e. jewelry found at antique stores that I've taken apart to rework) or materials that I had on hand from different projects (like the copper wire). I hope to keep that "green" aspect in my work in the future, treasure hunting in unlikely places in order to create something beautiful out of that which was previously discarded. What do you think? I would love your feedback!

  3. Thank you, Molly! Yes, I was planning on selling the last one (the first two have already been given away) but hadn't decided on a price point. Email me and we can work something out :) I would email you but I don't think I have a current address for you. jeanalinhart@gmail.com

  4. As somebody who has sold crafts online, I say you should go for it. Your designs are fresh, fashionable, and very saleable. Make sure to look at the seasonal color predictions at http://www.firemountaingems.com/ when you go out looking for supplies--I discovered that color makes an enormous difference to sales. Good luck!
