Commissions are coming in...

My aunt's friend Betty Jane admired the necklace that I made for my aunt, so I am now going to make a necklace for her granddaughter for Christmas. She's 14, the granddaughter that is, so I figure a multistrand with different 4mm purples.

The Christmas presents are coming, but I'm not enjoying the wrapped loops as much as peyote!

My cat attempts Celllini Spiral.


We just got back from the vet where they removed a size 10 beading needing and several feet of size B Crystal Fireline from the mouth of my cat, Shadow.

I thought my husband had taken my latest project to have a look at the intricate and dazzling design. Hey, it could happen. I finally found the few inches of spiral on the living room floor, minus needle and a lot of working thread. And surprise, surprise, the cat was hiding in the basement.

The folks at the emergency vet clinic were fabulous and were able to take it out with some forceps. And the best? They did not charge us! All in all, just another minor adventure in the Selinger household...

I'm still not sure how this thing works, but I'm jumpin' in.

More Jewelry

The photos aren't great, but I'm anxious to get some photos posted. You can click on them for a larger image.


First, is a cuff made with 6/0 seed beads with a button closure.

 
"Dainty Delica Bracelet" is a design from a book by Tammy Powley
called Making Designer Seed Bead, Stone, & Crystal Jewelry.



Lastly, a necklace that I designed to go with the
single spiral bracelet.
