Some new pieces

I know it seems like I have been gone along time, and it feels like it to me too! But I have been doing alot of wirewrapping, rings and necklaces. I can sit on the sofa and do this. Apparantly I am one of the lucky ones that are going to have morning sickness all times of the day and its last well into the 15th week so far! Lucky me!

Anyway, after I wirewrap then I ususally have to oxidized the piece, I do this outside, the smell is horrible. Then I buff the silver to give it that wonderful aged look.
Next they get their pictures taken, then I have to write a description, edit pictures and upload all that onto the ETSY site.
So it is quite a process, but I feel really good about getting so many done lately.

I love these pendants, each one is the creation of an artsy couple living in South Carlolina. They do this full time. Each one is handcarved by the wife, then cast in pewter, oxidized and polished by the husband. Even the backs have interesting details on them!

Here are some I designed around, I hope you enjoy looking at them. The full pictures and descriptions are on my ETSY site!
