New Section in My Etsy Shop - Borneo Ceramic Beads
Today, I finally added a new section in my Etsy Shop - Borneo Ceramic Beads Supply. If you are interested with Borneo Ceramic Beads, check out this section.
I am always in awe with these handcrafted beads and would like to bring it to you although in not very large quantity but enough for you to make some pretties out of them.
I will be listing more from time to time.
So, do drop by my etsy shop today.
Borneo Ceramic Bead Earrings, Sterling Silver
For a long time now, I have been wanting to wire wrap some of my Borneo ceramic beads and list them in my etsy shop. Finally last night I made a pair of earrings. It is now listed in my etsy shop if you are interested.
This pair consist of two unique handcrafted Borneo ceramic beads wrapped with sterling silver wire and 4mm bicone Swarovski Crystals. Each bead measures about 10mm. The handmade nature of the process and the natural individuality of the clay and colors result in variations from bead to bead. As you can see here, the sizes of these two beads vary. One bigger than the other.
So, if you are looking for perfection, you will not find it in these beads.
I shall be listing more soon in the form of other Borneo ceramic beads. They are really lovely and unique.

Sparkly Pearl Ring & Mackintosh Wire Wrap Ring
Arrrrg! Having internet connection again. Been trying to post for the last hour but the pix don't want to upload. Is it my computer or is it blogger?...........stress.
Anyway, here are two rings I got done today. Both are commissioned pieces. Was planning to finish more pretties but busy with errant whole morning and looking for beads in the afternoon. Basically been spending money today :)
This is a commissioned piece made based on a tutorial by Jim Mackintosh. Making this ring is very challenging as I use round stainless steel wire while Jim recommended soft square wires. No choice here for me. The end result is ok and just hope the owner will like it too :)

Rings Made Last Night
These are rings I made last night. I seems to have a following for the Black Onyx wire wrap ring. Been making a number of them :)
Same with the sparkly crystal rings here. Made these two with 20ga Sterling Silver wire and donut shaped swarovski crystal and sterling silver metal beads. Love them, will make one for myself soon.
If you are interested to find out how I make these rings, I have a tutorial for it as well. Check out the right hand top corner of this blog or my etsy shop.
