2012 pieces and BIG Decisions!

Well, hello there!

Happy New Year peeps!

How is 2012 treating you so far?

I have had a wonderful Christmas-New Year holiday :)

Most of the days were spent with my 

family and my sweet fiance ;)

Big decisions :

Dear fiance and I have decided to find a home within the

next few months ;)

Something small and cozy but with

big enough to fit a small room for my studio :)

AND, we have also decided to 

get MARRIED sometime during the summer

or early fall :D

Nothing fancy, as the economic crisis

has been hard on us, but it will be lovely, I know!

Jewelry :

I have managed to make

a few new pieces..

A bit different from what I usually make

but I love them!

Perfect for every day and even prettier when

you wear lots of them!

Exploring....

Every single day since I started making jewelry has been

a wonderful journey..

Ive gone through simple wrapping into

more intricate wirewrapping..

And then I discovered solder,and flame and metals..

Oh what a joy!Being able

give soul to a cold metal is truly

amazing!

Being totally selftaught had its ups and downs..

I have experienced a wide range of emotions..

Disappointment and joy through trial and error..

Moments when I felt I could create nothing

but mediocre..nothing but something that

was seen again and again and again..

But there where times that I felt proud

of my creations..

Being stubborn really helped..

So, I started experimenting with casting..

It is an interesting technique..and it

will be a lovely journey..

of course they are not ready yet..

But, they will be soon..

See the results here!

Proud..

It doesnt happen to me often..

to feel proud of my creations..

Dont let me be misunderstood though..

I dont

mean I dont love my creations..I do..

I love each and every little piece I ve created..

simple or intricate.large or small..

because each piece was made with

extra care, love and joy..

BUT............................

there are times, itsy bitsy moments

when looking at a piece I have JUST created,

makes me smile with PRIDE....

This ring below made me smile..

with pride....

and will certainly create a new

Running out...

three silver pebbles..
