stones a poppin'


All sorts of new little goodies today- more to come tomorrow- but it is 2 am now and I do believe i should call it a day!! Here are some pics of what you will find in the Etsy shop:
But I do have to show you this ring- it was a custom piece for a wonderful client and i am quite enamored with the end result!

It misbehaved a lot in the making- but worth it is the end!!!

Night night... xo

So many New ideas

I have soooo many ideas swimming in my head- that it is literally keeping me awake at night. I see myself sawing as I close my eyes- I can feel the hammer in my hand when I turn over- it is getting ridiculous!

In the next few days, i will try and get many new designs photographed and listed in the Etsy shop- stay tuned.....

FROZEN

One of the things I HATE the most is all the pictures I have to take of jewelry, just to get one or two good ones. So when something really good turns out, i am just beyond happy. And yes folks, that happened yesterday!
First of all, the icicle necklace. Cool and jangly- I love it- a gorgeous natural crystal of icy blue aquamarine blended with hammered slivers of silver on a long chain
Lately, long is the way to go for me.
And then my genius (well, I am patting my own back a tad here) was to take pics of it on a hunk of ice. It is so cool and frosty looking that I couldnt stop photographing it!


I absolutly love how ice photographs- but- I did have to pry off the metal from the ice afterwards. Better than a tongue on a light post, i suppose.

Redid an old piece of etched silver into an amoeba. All squiggly and weird shaped-set with a lovely amethyst and emerald. I like the way amethysr sounds- almost like something yummy- should be crunchy and sweet.
Went on a long power walk (extremely dumb name) today- as Tamir and I do every saturday- bright and sunny and warm as summer- 25 degrees celcius. Through the strawberry fields- and in kadima they do go on forever! Ate our way through them until 1/2 hours later we arrived in the orange groves- ate our way through that too. All in all, a nice fruit salad walk.
Ahhh. what a hard winter here in Israel...
